We’ve been married for four years but we feel more like flatmates who meet now and then to have sex. He’s 35 and I’m 31. I work part-time, on top of the childcare.
When my husband’s not working, he mainly just sleeps – unless he’s off “doing a favour” for one of his mates.
He has two daughters, aged seven and nine. Their mother recently said she’s done her bit and the girls need to be with their dad.
I don’t want to turn my back on those girls but I feel like I’ll be a single mum of three.
DEIDRE SAYS: Tell your husband that you don’t want to see his daughters suffer but he has to step up to the parenthood duties – with his son as well as his two daughters.
Maybe his own dad wasn’t hands-on but his children need his involvement and it can be sorted around his work schedule.
His children come before his mates.
