What's with lazy wives

[dgmartinez]

So I have a couple of friends, they work hard everyday to provide for the kids and home life.

It is starting to be a common theme for them that they are the ones having to do all the work.

Come home from work, clean the house, cook dinner, clean up after dinner, do laundry, take care of the kids and pets, put kids to bed, make sure that the bills are paid. All before they can enjoy dinner themselves.

They are married, and have good jobs and nice houses.....

But they are getting tired of the SO going out 3 times a week with friends, not feeding the kids, not cleaning, even when they stay at home all day and watch tv.

But god forbid when one is laid off, cause then it all turns into they are no good.

And even though they are working under the table for family, and collecting EI,

the SO has the gall to bitch about not being able to buy the new things or go on a trip because :"They are not doing enough....they are smothering me, and they are being mean asking me to get a job and help support the family."

I have heard the term "They like to roll with the biggest wheel" and in Calgary there is not a truer statement.

And yet, after all this, they are still, in the eyes of the SO, a deadbeat, and a waste of time, a bad choice, not a good partner, because they are not providing the niceties of life for the SO. "Accustomed to the lifestyle which they were living in at the time" and they have been told that they should EXPECT this as they deserve it.

I do not know ANYONE who expects to be a slave for someone because they deserved it.

so ya....other side of coin?

And my friends girlfriend. Fuck. I live in strathmore and all of this is ridiculously true out here, as 80% of men out here work the rigs(probably exaggerating the #, but a lot) and these women are just sitting around doing fuck all, going for brunch with their friends in the escalade without a care in the world, except when they are laid off.

Then they aren't getting the things they want and then there's divorce talk bla bla bla. This is the norm in this town. Everyone I know here except 1 couple have split or are very close and that 1 couple who hasn't, still go through this shit, but buddy can't do anything because he's trying to be aa good dad for his kids and not leave the broad.

Wow, I've said a lot today. I'm gonna just read from now on lol

I grew up on the acreage between Chestermere and Strathmore, and sadly, a lot of what you just said is true.

People these days, of both sexes, suck.

That's the thing with vaginas. There's always a line of men waiting to be the next inside of one.

LOL,
Only lazy types of couples I've seen to stereotype about are white people and fob Koreans.

She's likely engineering an exit strategy.

I lived in Strathmore for 16 years as a child-young adult(just down the block an around the corner from Go4Long), an what you just listed, isn't too far from the truth...
I stopped in to visit some friends a few weekends ago, just kids with all types of stupid swag! WTF, did that place take a big down turn?

When I stopped in @ Wal Mart to grab some things, this man child was throwing a temper-tantrum cause his mother wouldn't buy him a few video games.. ..Wow my 5 year old son doesn't even pull crap like that. Back in my day if i did something like that. My mom would have went old school on my ass!

My ex roomate is in this boat, but he's not exactly a smart one himself. Him and his gf both have a kid from another relationship, and then they just had another kid. they're both under 21. He quit his job to pursue the ACN MLM Scam, His gf sits at home and bitches at him and literally cries when he doesn't buy her boston pizza everyday, take her shopping, get her whatever thing she wants. She's never worked a day in her life either, odd part is that shes not really attractive..well neither is he but whatever.

Edit: also forgot to add her alcohal/drug addiction. I bought beer and kept it in the fridge once, I got oxycodone/percacet for a real bad pain once. They were both gone the second I left the house, she used to dig through my room for money.

3 kids, and under 21? That is sad.

sounds almost like 4 kids...
..any chance that you casually suggested to him about getting "fixed"? that many children @ his age, I couldn't begin to imagine how that will play out in 5 years time.
