[quote=Anonymous]My DH is like this as well. It's incredibly irritating. You did make a mistake giving him the whole summer. He has probably deluded himself about how much time it will take and is now embarrassed. I find a much better strategy is to pick one thing every weekend. He agrees to do it, and I ask him specifically what time slot he will do it in. Often that results in him admitting he doesn't have a time slot. But if it does, then there's some accountability. If the time slot comes and goes, then I'm like, you had one job! I also advise you to get real about who in your house actually cares about these tasks. It may be that your DH is conflict-avoidant and agrees to the list because it's what you want to hear, but he actually does not care or even disagrees with the list, so he passively tries to avoid it. Sit down with the list yourself and ask yourself if it is truly important to HIM not just you.[/quote]
