See? Now THAT sounds like something very necessary to get angry about—and it would appear this isn't the first time he's weaponized his incompetence and then gaslit her about it when she brought it up. The thing is, if he had just owned up to it, apologized, and grown into a better person who would love to help the mother of his children/the love of his life carry in the groceries, then there wouldn't be any issue here. Instead, he is now on the top of every woman on Reddit's “dump him” list.
The wife, obviously, loves him and isn't taking the “dump him” requests too seriously, but she is soaking in all the advice. She says she wants to treat her family with “compassion and love” but “without letting them walk all over me.” She hears that she needs to express her needs better, but she also sees that her husband is acting like a child and that she doesn't deserve that. She already has children in the house to take care of—her husband is supposed to help her with that, not add to the chaos. See what kind of advice the supportive ladies of Reddit have given below!

Wife finds unwavering support from women online after her husband doesn't help her bring in the groceries: ‘When finally the door was opened it was by my 7-year-old…'
Calling all girls' girls—we have a red alert!! A wife is turning to Reddit to see if she is being "too dramatic" or if she is "unjustified" after being very obviously gaslit. She needs to be educated on weaponized incompetence and emotional intelligence STAT. Honestly, good thing she came to the internet. Sure, there is a dark side to the web that would do the opposite of what happened here, but luckily, she found unwavering support from women online. The situation? Her husband didn't help her bring in the groceries.
Okay, okay, that doesn't sound like too big of an infraction, BUT that is not all. The entire story really grinds the gears of anyone who has been in a relationship with a man who wants to act like a child. The entire situation ended up with her husband lazing on the couch while she hauled the groceries in the freezing cold, through multiple trips, and that was only after her 7-year-old child had to open the door for her… And then when she called him out for that blatant disrespect, he pouted like a child and even refused to eat the dinner she cooked for the family and went straight to bed without helping her put the kids to bed…
