Mistake

I had allowed my husband to buy a playstation 4 last week since he works so hard and deserved to get himself something he really wanted, but now he has been on it constantly since he got home. It is irritating me because I'm preparing everything by myself and even cleaning, and cooking dinner as well. I don't want to be mean and make him mad since he is having fun, but I feel ignored a lot ever since he got the PS4. I mean our child is coming soon and I would like this time to bond with him and do things together before everything changes. I just... Don't know what to do.

I play video games, how about you join him and play the ps4, sometimes you have to find differnt ways to bond. I no cleaning, cooking and preparation seems like a lot but in the end that is a womens thing to do, not so much as your husband.. I use cleaning as a personal in house exercise cause I be moving Lol and cooking as my relief AND preparation as my time to myself.. Bonding can happen you just have to find different ways to bond

I have the same problem but with him going to play basketball. I know he loves it and I like him to play its great exercise but he wants to go almost every day after work and is gone till 10 or 11 and then also wants to go on weekends! So we made a deal. He could either come home every day during the week and spend time with me and have the whole weekend (Fri included) to go play basketball or whatever or go whenever during the week and spend the whole weekend with me! So maybe u could try something like that

Oh gosh this is my fiancée. Like he loves playing his games. It really doesn't bother me much though considering he does help me out when I need it. I play with him every now and then.

Now this is funny lol but least he is always on the game instead of always online doing something else I would let him enjoy it but talk to him about it he shouldn't stop playing the game entirely but needs to also have that little bit of time to do other stuff when he gets home

I think you should just let him enjoy his game. But also tell him that times you would want to bond before baby comes. Because once baby is here it will be 24/7 with your new addition to the family. You'll be so busy and you would want help from your hubby

Haha story of my life with my fiance and his new wii u. Just tell him how you feel,  don't be mean about it just ask if you two could have time together.  That's what it took to get my fiance to turn down a knotch with the games.  Made me feel as if he's more involved in games then to lay with me and feel our daughter kick.  But at the end of the day honestly I try to let my fiance have his time with games cause I know soon he won't time at all.  But just communicate and tell him how you feel!
