Agghhhh! Anyone else have a family that makes them do that?

So had a pretty good day out with my son and wife and then it all goes pair shaped. We're playing a game on the bed and she spends most of the time complaining she's not feeling too good, she ate something or drank too much, or something hurts or something...she's always complaining about some pain or ache or something and then when I'm just about fed up of that I catch him picking his nose and eating a booger....so I go off on him and leave the room. I'm just tired of family shit sometimes. There's always something.

Maybe you should try and be sympathetic to your wife’s pains… and kids are kids and they are gross creatures 🤷‍♀️ Sounds like you need a little time out, away from them for a bit

@Starchild1983 You offering? :) I would be except it's like a constant daily something or other. Pain in her toe, arm hurts, back ache, head ache. If it's enough to bother you, go see a damn doctor. I live with pain daily but I don't go on about it. You deal with it.

@aboveaverageaveragejoe some people have a much higher pain tolerance. Also you are supposed to be able to vent to your partner. Just try and be sympathetic she will really appreciate feeling heard and being validated. Just my two cents as a woman 🙂

@Starchild1983 Do you complain almost daily for the last several years?

Starchild1983 · 41-45, F

@aboveaverageaveragejoe no… but I live with someone that does

@Starchild1983 It's not very often I vent at all. I hardly ever feel the need to. This is just one of those days I thought I would see if it made me feel any better about it all. It doesn't. Oh well.

@aboveaverageaveragejoe we all get fed up sometimes.. that’s life I suppose…. I wish you well and hope you find some peace at home 🙂
