would your husband?
Find answers to your legal question.





would your husband?

This morning when I parked, I realized I have a flat tire, not completely flat, but leaking air. I have to be somewhere right after work and can't change it, and even if I didn't have to be somewhere, I don't know how to change a tire. I could probably figure it out if I had to, but if he's 5 minutes away, wouldn't you ask your husband? If your husband didn't have to work until 3pm, would he come to your work and change it without acting like a big baby and whining about it? Shouldn't he want to take care of it to make sure his wife is safe? If he had a problem, I would do all I could do to help him. I'm just so disappointed. Am I the only wife who would feel this way?

Yeah I can see why it would be disappointing but this is one of the ways and things I am always stressing about on why women need to be self sufficient!!! I would love to know how to change a tire!!!!

If my tire even looked low, my husband would offer to trade cars and yes, he'd happily change my flat tire. Call his best friend or brother next time you need help.

My husband would come change my tire in a second..without complaining or whining.. of course if he wasn't at work.. But of course you should be dissapointed.. I would be if he would whine and complain about it..

why don´t learn to do it by yourself? it´s really easy ann he can see that you can don things without asking him for evrething.*

My man moves mountains to do things for me.

ESPECIALLY "Manly type" things.......heck, I haven't even carried in a bag of groceries since we have been together.....I call him on his cell and he runs outside and carries everything in.


BabeHart
Yeah, if he were home and had the time (and I couldn't do it myself) then that would be the first person I'd call...unkewl if he put up a fuss. What did he want you to do instead?

yeh he sounds like an ***! My hubby would have come right away without even having to ask! He might moan a little but he does everything like that for me!

I think you have a right to be annoyed, but don't begrudge him his grousing too much. Nobody enjoys having to change a tire, after all, and he was probably looking forward to not having to deal with anything stressful until he got into work. Shame on him for not trying to teach you so neither of you would have to deal with the problem again, especially if it happens again when he's not nearby.

that is weird he didn't want to help you. sorry about that that must really make you feel bad. my husband would help me out if that happen to me. and it has he would have helped you out if you needed it too. thats just the type of guy he is.

well get this, my boyfriend is a car dealer and has all his cars washed once a week and won't even take mine down there to be washed! They are such big babies. You may not think this will work and it may be hard for you to do, but you need to treat him the same way and be serious about it. Like next time he wants dinner just whine and go on about it like he's asking you for the world. That's about the only way I can get my bf to see things my way. Example: I was sick 2 weeks ago and he treated me like I had the plague and didn't even want me to sleep in the same bed. Yesterday a.m. he woke up sick and is still sick today. I've acted so bad to him but I have to teach him a lesson. I've told him if he doesn't quit coughing it's going to make me throw up because it sounds so disgusting, etc. It seems to be working as his feelings are very hurt right now while he is at work - but I told him what goes around comes around. I would try it for a while and then later explain why you did it. Maybe that will open his eyes.

My husband would come do it. He would probably evan leave work to come help me out. But I'm sure he would also grip about it.

you have one of those ignorant, selfish husbands. he need to step it up, or get someone else to fix it, and tell you husband, this gentleman fixed my tire, and he was also interested in me, i let him know i was married, and he said lucky man, but why is he not here fixing his wife flat, that is not right, i wouldn't leave you stranded. bd


ash6529
I feel the same way.

A perfect husband would say "sure I'll fix your tire, no problem, I want you to be safe honey."

Tell him how it made you feel when he was whining about it.

Well, as a husband, I have gone and changed my wife's tire a few times in our 10 years of marriage. And, yes my wife know how, but she still expects me to do this. Part of the give and take in marriage, i think.


~NIKKI~
Heck no! you have every right to feel this way! My husband would leave his job to fix my tire and he would drive half way across the state to fix it if he had to. Your husband is wrong for complaining about it. It is not as if you planned or wanted to get a flat. It is just one of those crappy things that happen in life. If he knows how to fix it than he should. it is your safety he should be concerned about, not the inconvenience it has been on him

What is ur husbands problem? My husband better get his a$$ up there immediately. But he's just that kind of man. I wouldn't have to bribe him or threaten him, it goes without saying. Maybe you need to reevaluate your relationship

I would have changed the tyre. Its a mans job. :) ( Kidding, but i would have changed the tyre for you!)

If he had no good reason to NOT do it, then he should have got his hands dirty. IMO.


todayillsee
Girl let me tell you. No matter what they are gonna gripe, whine or moan about having to do it. My husband would come but do the whining or fussing thing. "Like its my fault I have a flat. I did this on purpose." Men will be men.


Beatngu
Join the club! My battery went dead and he didn't want to come the 2 miles to where I was getting our kids to help me out. He did come to my rescue, but only when I started in. I mean I agree... We're the wife... keep us safe and be our knight in shining armor when we NEED you! On the other hand, he does help with a lot of other things too. So its just a once in a while thing.


loza500
What would you do if your husband was gone tomorrow? Could you survive on your own? It is not a mans job to make sure his wife is ok all the time. Sometime you just have to step up and learn to do this stuff on your own. Now you have a flat it would be a great time to learn how to change one, because the day will come when your husband isn't just 5 mins away.

I help mine out . Need to be there for eachother.

Honey you should feel the way you do. Did he atleast come fix it? If so be happy he came. Maybe he did him and haw but it got done so he must care. Men are babies. Well atleast my husband is and I could see him himming and hawing about it but I know he'd come help me.


Anonymous is my name...lol!

No, you're not. I would expect my husband to do the same thing.


Shoeless Joe
Yes, I would go and change it for my wife.

Yes, I would complain about it.

As for being a baby, who's the baby that can't figure out how to change a tire? It's not that hard!


EDIT- I did read your question. You sound needy and whiny to me.

It sounds to me like this is about a lot more than a flat tire.....

Husband speaking-- I would in a heart beat. If i couldnt i would find someone who could ect.

People in a mature relationship realize that a couple is not going to be on the same page all the time.
Yes he should take care of it for you, but he is allowed to grumble about it.

I drove non stop from Georgia coast to Gulfport missippi to help my wife once
