I really need advice, I just don't know what is normal anymore.
My DH works full time, often has to work til 1pm Saturday and sometimes Sunday too.
I was made redundant while on maternity leave with DD (who is now at school) and 3 years later had DS. DH's unpredictable hours would make it very difficult for me to work.
Last night we had an argument and he said he thinks I have used him to get what I want (kids and house) and now that I have it I've turned nasty.
His reasoning is that he doesn't get as much sex affection as he would like. My sex drive has nose-dived, I am always knackered, I do not find being a mother easy.
Every single time we have an argument he sneers get a job and says why don't we just get a divorce. The next morning it's like it never happened.
Is it normal for husbands or DP's to say things like this when you have an argument? I'm so tired of it.
I don't want to drip feed so I should say that around the time DD was born and for about a year after he was utterly vile to me. He used to say really horrible things. I threatened to leave and he promised to stop, which he did. But now I think maybe he hasn't stopped, maybe it was so bad back then that what he does now seems ok and not so bad??

Please tell me, is this as bad as I think?
