Is it too much to ask that my wife lets me know when she'll be a little late getting home from
So I've figured out (with the help of yahoo answers thank you!) that I've made myself a doormat... I'm now sticking up for myself and asking the wife to pickup some of the household chores and work with me on our relationship.
Two years ago she went back to work after having a child and I've cut my work back to manage the house and kids. She's in a 'high powered' job, etc etc. In the last year she's increasingly 'doing' lunch with co-workers (generally men and usually 1 on 1) and has now branched out to after work wine.
In the last few months her after-work schedule has been erratic - nothing really late - but certainly coming home after our usual dinner time and interupting me putting the kids down and not letting me know when she's coming. She usually doesn't answer texting/calls to see if I should keep dinner.
I've told her I'm angry that she keeps me in the dark. While she appologizes and says shes sorry it keeps happening! Am I out of line with my expectations?

It is normal for any one expecting someone at a certain time to want the schedule kept. If someone has to deviate from the schedule, then they should inform their spouse/ or whoever out of courtesy so that person won't worry and wonder what's going on and whether they should go ahead with their plans or wait. Your wife is being rude and disrespectful to you and I don't understand why. I don't believe she forgets and I don't believe she is sorry. True remorse creates new behavior. Maybe it's time to get a sitter and go back to work full-time yourself. Then her time won't be as flexible and she will have to call you with any change in the schedule as someone has to pick up the kids after work and bring them home. Perhaps she will then learn common courtesy and respect for somene else's schedule and appreciate what they are doing to make her life run smoother.
