My boyfriend and I are new parents. And VERY young ones at that. We fight alot. And just when I think its getting better we fight again. I get angry about “little” things. But are they really little? Let me describe some situations. For instance I pay for alot of stuff and I feel very under appreciated. Last night I bought my b/f a six pack and some cigarettes. (hes a daily drinker and very heavy smoker) We had been trying to compromise with eachother due to a previous fight over his addiction to entertainment television/games. So I bought us a game we both could play together and enjoy. So when we got home we loaded in the game and started to take turns playing metal gear. But our 5 month old daughter started to cry so I passed him the controller. He started to get into it while I tried to calm our baby. Before I knew it he was in his “mode” I went ahead and started my daughters nightly routine. I took her a bath etc. But I needed him to help me prepare the botlle. So i asked nicely about three times. But he was so focused on getting to a certain part so I could watch the cut-scene. So in my head Im starting to really get angry I held it in. But I was repeating my thoughts over and over in my head. How am I supposed to enjoy this stupid cut scene while pacing back and forth trying to calm our 5 month old. And not only that but how am i even involved in the game anymore. He had been playing by himself for the past thirty min. Finally it became way too much. I just let him have it. Not in a yelling kind of way but in a nagging bitchy kind of way. So he gets pissed and starts slamming the cabinets while preparing her bottle. Mind you its 45 min past her bed time already. He comes over and forcefully hands me the bottle. Which is WAY too hot. So i tell him. Boy did that just really piss him off. He chunks the bottle my way and tells me to make it myself. And then he goes into his rant about how much of a child i am and how bitchy/naggy i am. But honestly could you blame me. This kind of stuff happens all the time. I understand im the mother but i need help with our daughter too. Is he right. Is it me?
