[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The tidy person tidies and grows ever more resentful with each passing day. Then s/he nags the other person to clean up after themselves. The other person doesn't see the need or, indeed, even the mess, but tiring of the constant nagging and arguing and cold silences, agrees to 'do better.' And s/he does put forth an effort, which doesn't yield great results, but at least it's an effort and the tidy person is partly mollified, at least for a while.

The tidy person continues to think the other person will get better, and in the blush of love, marries the other person. The other person is feeling those pheromones too, and makes a bigger effort. The effort lasts for shorter and shorter periods of time, because the other person inevitably falls off the wagon they don't even want to be on in the first place.

A baby is born.

The tidy person is now overwhelmed with doing. all. chores, which have multiplied with the baby and now the other person isn't nearly as diligent as they once were. The tidy person comes to DCUM to vent, and is told it is their fault; they knew who the other person was when they got married.
