This is a difficult
situation and clearly one that reflects different personal values
that you both have. You, it appears, are finding it hard coming to
terms with being a new mom, looking after baby and the loss of
freedom that that brings. He, it would seem, feels that it is the
mother's role to look after the children.
You appear to be
envious of him going to work. He's probably envious of you being
able to stay at home with the child. He socialises with adults but
does he know how isolated you feel in the home? You seem envious of
his lifestyle and there is a question of why he does not share some
of it with you.
Nowadays it is seen as
being the responsibility of both parents to see that their children
are properly looked after. Both parents are also entitled to a
social life but to enjoy a social life, the parents have to put the
care of the children first.
Nobody will blame you
for wanting to have a bit of freedom and social life but could you
friend not have come round to your house? Was it really necessary to
go out for a beer?
This is only one event
and your boyfriend's reaction seems excessive and unfounded. Except
that you may have broken one of his core beliefs that the mother
should look after the children. Perhaps this is something you should
talk about between the two of you.
There also seems to be
an issue with your self-esteem, which seems to be low at this time.
That is understandable but if you continue to feel this way then
perhaps you should seek professional support.
