[quote=Anonymous]He isn't that messy. If he were leaving clothes all over the floor or dishes on the counter constantly, I wouldn't be able to handle it. But he does clean, especially in the kitchen. And he'll start a load of laundry of fold it when it's done, etc. It's not like I'm his maid.

But I am absolutely the designated picker-upper in our house because I really love getting rid of clutter. I'm good at figuring out where things go, organizing, and recognizing what is just trash/recycling and can be tossed out altogether. He's bad at that stuff and if he tries to do it, we just wind up with lots of piles of things that need to be sorted through again. He doesn't have the killer instinct when it comes to this stuff.

So I just view it as part of our allocation of tasks according to who is best at things. I do it faster and better. He is good at replacing lightbulbs, hanging stuff, moving furniture, etc. It makes more sense to split things up according to what people like doing and are good at, instead of both of us struggling to do things our partners are just better at.[/quote]
