Does anybody else feel like they pull more weight around the house in terms of doing chores, cooking etc.
I feel so fed up sometimes at the lack of my husbands effort. Every time we try to talk about it, it always ends up in an argument so I've nearly given up.
Today it was a big deal because I asked him to carry some bags to the charity shop across the street (literally walk across the bus route and your there) Then I asked if he could pick up the living room whilst I took our daughter to get a haircut. His response was "no I want to just chill it is the weekend that's what they are for". All I said was pick up, not Hoover, dust the whole nine yards.
Why should I work as many hours as him, have a busier work load, work overtime to bring in extra cash to buy myself a car, and then be expected to do all the housework and cook dinner every night.
Not saying he doesn't help but it's definitely hit or miss. I'm so frustrated. And I don't want people to think he's a bad guy because he's not. But sigh I've hit a wall today. He does help sometimes but the bulk of it lays with me. I don't want to have to nag for something to get done. Or the times he does get into a super let's get things cleaned, it's at inappropriate times like ten at night.
And he thinks we're getting a dog when we move house soon
nope no way, so I can add to my list of things to clean up after.
Sorry for such a rant I just had to get it out.
