Why does my boyfriend expects me to cook for him during my working hours?

[Anonymous]

i work from home and he expects me to act like I’m not working and to be available to cook him a meal... I try to sometimes on lunch but sometimes I’m tired from dealing with the baby. I just hate wen he randomly ask me and he nos I no longer have breaks left. Like damn I’m not a slave. I tried to talk him about it and he just dismissed me.

"He gets paid weekly to do errands for this elderly lady his job is so easy that’s only like 3-4 times a week that he goes."

If he wants dinner foods for his lunch, it sounds like he has ample free time to attend a cooking school. In any case, anyone can put a porkchop into the oven... including one for you!

Did he not understand that once the baby arrived and you returned to work, he'd have to shoulder at least a few of the responsibilities around the house? Or did he imagine that nothing would change? Best case is he was that he was grasping at straws. Worse case is he's delusional.

Have the clown make his own lunch. He gives women the impression that all men are inconsiderate jerks.

This may sound bad, but you should probably have had an agreement or system drafted before marriage about how living together would be like. It's still not too late to do that but create a draft in a well organized manner, I'd recommend google docs and then give it him so he clearly has an idea of what is/isn't doable when it comes to food. Negotiation is possible so you could give him a raw deal and tell him that we could negotiate if he wants changes.

So... your own lucnh meal for that day... how do you get it, or when, where from? because, you could as well acquire or make, get two of those? and give one to him?

During working hours I make something quick like sandwiches etc he says he doesn’t want that he expects dinner foods wen he knows I only have 30 min

For lunch

and what kind of work or job does have you glued to the computer for over 12 hours, that you only have 30 minutes left?

Takin inbound call... my issue is he is grown why can’t he make himself something wen I’m at work. Just because I work from home doesn’t mean I’m available. I don’t mind making food wen I’m not working but I’m busy working for 10 hours shoot I even feed re baby while I work he never takes over. I hate that I’m expected todo everything while he just sits on the couch

Well, if he is being childish... show him how to cook, and if he doesn't want to learn, he doesn't have to cook, he can buy take out or whatever he pleases.

Sounds like a match made in heaven. You are working and tending the baby. What does he do?

[Asker]

Most of the time he is home. He gets paid weekly to do errands for this elderly lady his job is so easy that’s only like 3-4 times a week that he goes

I have experiences getting bad treatment from girl while I have cooked and did chores all by myself. So many women do the same to you too if you look after them.
