My husband and I both work. He gets home about 5:00 PM and I get home at 5:30 PM. Yesterday one of his co-workers asked him if he would like to stop off and play a few games of pool after work and my husband told him he couldn't because he has to get home right after work, so he can run my bath water for me.
I work hard and don't feel that it is out of line for him to run my bath water and lay my clothes out for me, since he gets home before I do. While I'm taking my bath, he then has time to let the dogs out, plan dinner and do some last minute chores. I let him go out with his friends about once a month. I just don't feel he needs to go out during the week. Especially when he knows how much work there is to be done at home.

Yes you are unreasonable. He is your husband not your man servant.
You should be ashamed of yourself.

No you are not unreasonable. Maybe because i am against women serving their husbands. You guys work together right? Well.. I get what you mean.. You do a lot of hard work.. So does he.. Maybe you should reward him, let him have a lads night out a week. That is what every couple should have.. Do all chores first and maybe you should also have a ladies night out.. Both of you guys will go out for an hour or so, come back and maybe continue other chores.. What about that? You go out, he goes out, for one night a week, after that, perhaps do the chores or even before that. Your husband can hang around with friends while he is done with everything, there should be some time after he had run your bath, right? There should be some time for him to hang around with the lads.. You are not wrong, neither is he, just let him go out more often and you go out too, have some alone time..
Have a nice day..

That's a tough one. Especially when you know that the reason you're asking this question is for validation and not much else.
No, I don't think you're being unreasonable however, your list of things HE needs to do just because he gets there a little earlier than you is a bit presumptuous. It's great that he cares enough to do those things without complaint but you should consider the fact that he said he couldn't go because HAS to rather than because he WANTS to.
Good luck and hopefully the tame never becomes the feral.

yes you are unreasonable. you are not his mother so stop treating him like a child. my wife doesn't tell me when i can do things, and i don't tell her when she can do things. if i was your husband, i'd go out with my friends just to spite you, cuz i have a huge problem with being controlled like that. i'm an adult, and i make my own decisions. my wife has no problem with that. why are you so insecure? do you think that your husband should have no other contact with anyone but you?
you need to stop being so overbearing or your husband eventually will get fed up with your stupid crap and drop you like a hot potato. i know i would.
and i agee with AmusedOne. particularly the 50/50 note. it should not be 100/0.
