Or they dislike someone else in the home. I definitely had people who loved their spouse, but hated actually having to take care of their kids, so they took tons of OT in order to minimize interacting with them at all.

I'm unemployed and my wife works from home 3 days a week. Seems like most weeks she makes an excuse to her boss to work at home the remaining days. I need my alone time, and I made that clear very early in our courtship. Just got in a blowout fight last week over it. My fault as I held my resentment in and blew, but I can't broach the issue without her feeling rejected. I know because I've tried in the past.
