[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In a traditional marriage, men take out the trash, and men take care of the outside of the house, save for gardening. You don't have a traditional marriage, you have a douchebag of a husband.

Stop being passive-aggressive by giving your husband the cold shoulder - put on your big girl panties and be direct and mature. "Steve. I'm sick. When I'm sick, you should do MORE around the house to help me out. Also, in general, when you see something that needs to be done, please do it. Don't just leave it for me."[/quote]

That's the thing. He really isn't a douche bag. The trash is really the only thing he neglects. [b]He works a lot of hours and thus doesn't make it a priority as he should.[/b] That drives me crazy but having me pick up the trash just seemed wrong. I would feel this way even if I weren't sick. 
Also I'm never passive aggressive. I'm usually "mouth all mighty". I'm here to gain perspective before I broach the topic to him. I'm also trying to simmer down a bit.[/quote]

Nope. Him working a lot of hours is no excuse. My husband is working a lot of hours too, as he's building a law practice with a friend after they've both worked in Big Law for a while. It takes no time at all to swoop by a garbage pail and take the trash out when you're going outside anyway. [/quote]
