That’s easy. I try to help out and dry the dishes. My wife gets p.o.ed because I used the wrong towel.
This study may have merit.
I should have just gone out and changed the air filter in the truck.
Don’t take it so personally, it is a good idea to have a separate towel just for drying the dishes. Good idea to ask first.
Couldn’t you just use the right towel? ;) Like my husband after 15 years of marriage and two kids “can’t figure out” how to do laundry. He can ace advanced Physics and Chemistry but not “wash on delicate, lay flat to dry.” I never fell for that one!
I think the whole thing is stupid.
I mean, yuh gladly get to help clean and it’s like having one of those bosses who is constantly in your stuff, while you’re trying to be helpful and do a good job.
I usually just raise an eyebrow these days, start listening to her invective and walk off.
There are plenty of peaceful places on te planet where I can stand around doing nothing or just be helpful and not be:
MICRO MANAGED
You want to complain, try to biss me around while I am taking the initiative to do my part or fair share?????
Then you are going to be a one woman band on an island and less one so called employee that you think is your personal rug.
I’m not a rug.... I’m a magic carpet and I can fly away...anytime fasger and with more grace than you and your wretched broom stick...
My wife understands the word of G*D and knows Ephesians 5:23 is truth. I love her dearly, but she knows that that I am the Head of the house.
Exactly
Honey and I both were working full time when we met. I would be gone weeks at a time and the last thing I wanted to when I came home was to do housework. So, I sat Honey down and told him between wifely duties, cooking and cleaning, I was just too exhausted so he would need to pick the two most important to him.
He hired a housekeeper.
I asked my husband to put up his clothes one day, he picked up his underwear and actually asked where they went?!?!?
He helps if I ask and I usually ask him to vacuum.
It's like I tell the wife, "You can tell me what to do, or you can tell me how to do it, you don't get to do both."
