by Heide Lazaro
Would you be able to forgive your spouse for missing a milestone in your relationship?
This man admits that he was not able to be there when his wife gave birth.
He had a reasonable excuse, but his wife keeps bringing up this issue every time they have a misunderstanding. He really wishes she’d get over it.
Read the full story and weigh in.
AITA for telling my wife that she needs to get over me missing the birth of our daughter
I work in a job where there are times when I do not have access to my phone.
Or I am in the middle of nowhere
These times are well scheduled in advance and basically take up my whole day.
There are a ton of safety regulations I have to follow during this time.
This man was not able to make it when his wife was giving birth to their baby.
My wife was pregnant, and at the time, I planned to take off work near her due date.
Unfortunately, she went into labor early (about a month early).
And I was on an inspection.
I only learned about her going into labor when I got signal again.
By the time I got to the hospital, she has already given birth.
But she would bring it up every time they argued.
This was about 1.5 years ago, and I am an involved father.
The issue is every single time we have an argument, she will bring up I missed the birth.
It happens almost every single time.
From serious arguments to what fastfood should we get.
They had an argument about their child’s daycare.
Today was my breaking point.
We got into an argument about her wanting to change the daycare situation.
She wants to change daycare to one closer to the home.
I do drop off and she does pick up.
The only one closer to our home is too expensive, and we can not afford it.
And once again, she brought up the past issue.
In the middle of the argument, she pulled out I wasn’t there for the birth again.
I told her she needs to get over that and stop using it in every argument we have.
She called me a jerk and left.
AITA?
Missing the birth of your child is a big deal, but it’s not relevant to where the child goes to daycare.
Let’s read the reactions of other people on Reddit.
Here’s an honest opinion from this user.
LOL. This person is blaming the baby.
This person shares a valid point.
She’s being petty says this person.
Let’s end it with this short and straightforward comment.
Looks like she has a lot of issues and can’t let go of the past.
