Why do I want to call my husband a pig

Loved this whole post. We all get emotional at times and we love our spouses or family members no matter what we do. Earlier this week I yelled at my daughter for a good 10 minutes for failing to do her chores (30 seconds would have sufficed, but anxiety is a monster). When I was done I called her over and made her stand in front of me and I said, "now... " (Then I started giggling - yes, a 55 year old woman - giggling - so she started laughing) - finally I squeaked out the sentence, "now... tell me you love me!" (By them we both had tears streaming down our faces because of the stupidity of my statement while we were trying our darnedest to be angry with each other) and my 16 year old smiled and said, "I love you, butthole." And we laughed and kissed and blew off my ridiculous tantrum. ????

If you rely on him for things that's unfortunate, because he does not sound like he is the least bit supportive. However, you can very easily say to him that if he wants to eat junk and is content with your son developing those habits as well, he will have to make the efforts on his own, as you have begun a new and better life.
