His Wife Says He Humiliated Her When He Doted On His Friend’s Pregnant Wife
This man and his friend, Chris, are both having their first babies soon with their wives.
Currently, his wife is 36 weeks pregnant, while Chris’ wife, Polly, is about 28 weeks along.
He and Chris have both acted differently throughout their wives’ pregnancies.
“Chris still has Polly do a lot, whereas I will take the weight off my wife in literally any single possible way I can. Even small things. Mainly because I feel utterly useless, and I don’t want my wife straining herself to do things I could easily do myself while she is growing my baby and is uncomfortable anyways,” he said.
However, he may have messed up a couple of days ago when Chris and Polly invited him and his wife to take their boat out for swimming and fishing.
Because it’s nearing his wife’s due date, she was a little apprehensive about it. She understandably didn’t want to go into labor early and was experiencing some anxiety.
While they were all out on the boat, Chris repeatedly would ask Polly to go do things for him.
“I would go right behind Polly and be like, ‘No, sit down, I’ve got it,’ and essentially did the same thing I would do with my own wife. Well, there’s a store along the lake that we stopped off at so I could grab some beers, and Polly asked me to grab her a few things, so I did (a mixture of both snacks and drinks, like, four to five items),” he explained.
Once he left the store and returned to the boat, his wife checked the bag with his purchases and was angry. She then proceeded to sit in silence for at least an hour.

Later, they stopped the boat, and Chris and Polly jumped into the water and swam.
While they were alone in the boat, he asked his wife why she was mad.
“She’s like, ‘It’s pretty pathetic that you get her literally everything she asked for, and you couldn’t even get me the one thing I asked for.’ I told her I didn’t hear her ask for anything, and she said, ‘Yeah, because you were so busy doting on someone else’s pregnant wife that you couldn’t pay attention to what your own wife was saying.’ I truly didn’t hear her. But then, Chris gets back on the boat a bit later and looks at my wife and says, ‘Where’s your drink?’ and my wife just glared at me,” he shared.
Evidently, before he went to the store, Chris had heard his wife ask for a drink, but he hadn’t heard her. And when it happened, he had been right next to his wife, and Chris had been on the opposite side of the boat, so it made sense why his wife was so irate. Since he was right next to his wife, he should have heard that she asked him to get her a drink.
As the night continued, his wife said to him that she’d “‘never been so uncomfortable in her life,'” and she added that he humiliated her in front of Chris and Polly by not listening to her and buying the drink she wanted.
His wife went on to say that the way he paid so much attention to Polly made her uneasy, and because of this, she wanted to take a break from hanging out with Chris or Polly. However, from his perspective, he was just trying to be a good person by helping Polly.
Do you think he did the right thing by helping Polly?
