I have always been curious about knowing this;

Women, let's say your husband usually comes back by 6 pm and out of a sudden he starts coming back by 7pm.
You become worried and decided to question him, is it out of care or jealousy and to what extent does such confronting ruin a relationship.

Men, your working wife who comes by 7pm just started coming 1 hour late. What's your first instinct for asking her of her late coming.

Let's talk...

Ask him why and knw his reason..... Asking is care while knowing the reason and persist in disturbing him is jealousy...


Tell him u don't like aving him late in a lovely and appealing voice atleast he wil feel loved and wanted

It is not possible for some1 to be getting home all the time at say 7pm or 8pm.

I for one get home any time between 5 and 6:30pm.

On a particular day u may decide to complete a task that will take you a little or far beyond your closing time.
At times 5minutes before closing u have carried ur bag.
At time u may need to branch at the groceries to get one or two things for the home
At times office meetings may streatch beyond close of work.
At times especially rainy season u get to one crazy junction and d traffic is locked-up.
A vehicle may just break down on the road and cause heavy traffic.
And at other times the road will be so miraculously clear that u arrive home earlier than usual.

With these factors there is usually a wide range of time one can arrive home which is up to 2hrs. Let say between 5 & 7pm, between 6 & 8pm or between 7 & 9pm.

Just that if you are held-up in traffic anywhere or decide to branch some where for one reason or the other, jst give ur spouse a call. Life is not that difficult.

Absolutely out of care, there is nothing like jealousy in this case. U find ur man or lady cheating, u get upset y? Cus u care... Jealousy is totally different from my opinion.

out of care but the tone matters a lot.

I would ask out of care but the manner of approach matters because it could be misinterpreted for jealousy or suspicion

Well, I don't know how its possible to always get home at a particular time, a particular time range however, is understandable, therefore, if you feel the need to ask, it should first be out of care, unless there's a reason to be suspicious, just don't let that reason be unfounded insecurity and you are good to go.

Just an hour difference? At this point in life,I wont even notice,frankly.

A patner who doesn't care doesn't bother if u r home or not.i know a friend who prays her hubby comes home while she is asleep.I get worried whn I don't see my husband or hear frm him whn it's 8pm n will definitely make trouble.

I'll ask him out of care........we always chat during his lunch,he'd call wen he's on his way home,if he do'snt,I call him ASAP,jst to know he is okay coz when he is back, i know he'll tell me why he came late

its curiosity..bec she cares..

The differential is negligible to be candid since it could genuinely be down to extenuating circumstances beyond his/her control

However, 6pm turning into 10PM is quite alarming and as such demands valid explanations
