A baby is full-time work, but he’ll get older and be able to get into football with his dad, no need to give up on the dream, think of all the money…I mean fulfillment.
I know it’s the duty of the parent to put their child first and rearrange and/or find a new dream but It’s unfair of Ellie to just force Hubbs to just give up things that make him happy. A marriage is a partnership and it can’t work if only one is happy while the other one’s miserable. Is that what the author is going for? An eventual divorce?
I get wanting him to put in equal work, but seriously, she can’t be alone with the kid for three hours? Heck, probably two…neither he nor his other weekend warriors are getting any younger. And next month when she needs to get out for an afternoon, Hubbs can be on single shift.
Hubbs, tell her: “I’m going to the football game, you can either come with me or stay here, your choice. When I get back we are going to talk and IT IS NOT GOING to be one sided. This is not what I married you for.”
There used to be a poster that said, “No Matter how beautiful she is, somebody, somewhere is tired of her sh*t!”
Two major question marks about Ellie come to mind. When she turned psycho killer on the owner of the Junk Iphones https://www.gocomics.com/in-security/2018/05/29
And the second question mark was, Sam knew her before he met Sedine. So why didn’t he end up with her? The little engine warning light must have been flashing in the back of Sam’s mind…
Hubbs, she’s being VERY selfish, and you’re coming off like some mega-wimp. First ask her if she loves you or not; she won’t answer. Then tell her to put the, albeit ugly, lamp back where she found it. Then tell her to change the kid’s diaper herself. (Changing boys is easy, but girls are… complicated and I refused to ever do it a 2nd after sweating blood over it.) Then take off with the boys for a couple of hours. But get your ass back home pronto and cook dinner or something! No beer while you are out, either.
First… this is a comic, folks. Don’t take it seriously. Second… he’s already p-whipped by his mom, so there’s virtually no chance he’s not going to do everything Ellie tells him to do.

So, she’s including herself in that dream of happiness, but not Hubbs? This does not bode well.

Oh…I know what’s going on. The question is…who is having this very bad dream?

So many things so painfully correct in this arc… Marry the love of your life, and then suddenly all the things you love in your life are taken away…

That’s what happens when you marry someone without knowing it first.

WAKE UP, HUBBS!!! It’s all a bad dream. I hope:(
djhaywood Premium Member about 4 years ago
I’m really surprised how quickly I’ve come to dislike Ellie now. She’s become mom-zilla and only thinks about herself and the baby. Poor Hubbs.

Ah, yes… the backside of love.
Sometimes it ain’t pretty, but it does have it’s occasional perks.

The kid will never play football.
But will have an uninterrupted 85 year long career in coaching. PeeWee to NFL.

Oh, my Lord… The old saying is true…
Love is blind… and marriage is a real eye-opener.
