My husband is a jerk

Why does he care less about disappointing his wife and kids but would never ever think about disappointing his buddies.

men do not think like women they think of there selves first while women think of there spose and children first. men dont grow up as fast as women so in there minds there still little boys wanting to go out and play with there playmates. they know there wife and children will be there for them and there friends may not if they cant come out to play. doont take it personal they may grow up someday! with any hope!

Have you talked to him about all this? If so, what does he say? Does he even see the problem? Is this something that you want to fix, can you fix it? Why stay with him if you are so unhappy?

Your husband isn't unlike alot of other people that put on a front for their friends. We as their family know the real them flaws and all they don't have to impress us we know them. There is an image most people want to portray to their friends, and disapointing friends doesn't fit the image, there for the people whoknow them well get left out.

Sometimes men can be so immature. Im not bad-mouthing them, because there are women just as bad. Try to sit down with him and tell him how you feel. ask him to go to free counseling with you. If he doesnt make some type of effort to consider your feelings, then you have to explore your feelings and see if this is the way you want to spend the next several years, being put on the back burner.

just a suggestion... maybe you are constantly wanting him to do what you want, maybe you want him to be with you 24/7. Hopefully not for you, he may have a female buddy? I dont know, but pressure of love can force people away from you.
