if you dont want to watch foot ball dont watch football. you dnt force him to do what you want right? everyone needs their own quiet time. i would go nuts if i didnt have it. i would go grocery shopping then walk around window shopping at other stores for a couple hours LOL> id leave DD home with SO and out i went. So was out of work due to surgery for 8 months so i know how it is. some days i felt like i had two kids. i just needed to get out otherwise we would bicker back and forth. its perfectly normal to need your own time, or to want to chat with some friends. if he is still getting hurt by this then maybe you could do something while he`s on the computer. go shopping men hate grocery shopping. im sure if you offer to do it yourself he wouldnt argue. just have him keep the baby with him. tell him youll be alot faster that way and you dnt want to be out all day heh. =)

Urgh, I would be pulling my hair out! Probably why I`m still single, I can`t handle a guy needing to be with me 24/7, in fact I would go so far as saying it gives me the heebie-jeebies, even if I`m crazy about them!!! I don`t think it`s wrong to want ME time, I think it`s an absolute necessity in keeping your sanity!

My husband and I were both unemployed for 6 months this year and your predicament sounds all too familiar. I found my `me time` by saying that I needed to poop and then playing on my phone in the bathroom. My husband also managed to get time to himself during the day. You might find that it`s easier to get `me` time if you offer him `him` time. Tell him that you each need some time to yourselves and then set a schedule. Say, you watch the kids at a park for 1 hour every morning and he does the same for you each afternoon. Clearly, I have no idea what would work for you but you could probably figure something out. I hope that helps.

I`m going through the exact same thing!!!! 24/7 is not a natural thing for a couple. Alone time is a definite must. Maybe go for a short drive somewhere to have some ice cream and read a book?
