[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just set the table yourself if it's important to you. This seems like a lot of stress over something that would take you two minutes. Let him cook or clean or do something he actually sees value in.[/quote]

But it takes zero minutes to do it correctly if you are already doing it.  You have to set the fork down somewhere.  Why not put it where it goes?  [/quote]

Because I'd rather just serve myself in the kitchen and all sit around a table, or place a basket of utensils at the end of the table and grab one on my way to my seat depending on what I know I will be eating. I tend to eat everything possible with a spoon while dh only uses forks (except for soup), DS and i like tiny utensils and DH likes big ones, etc.  We all just grab our own silverware.  Why are we setting a table with uniform cutlery when we all prefer different?

But if it is super important to DH, he can do it himself. Just like he doesn't like how I fold his socks, so he does all laundry now because it's important to him. I didn't like how he loaded the dishwasher, so it's now my job. The person who thinks it's the most important is responsible in our house.[/quote]

Woah.  Okay.  You sound like an extremely difficult person.  It sounds like you do what you want, and it doesn’t sound like you are trying to fit in with larger society.  
I agree that I would not ask you to do anything outside of your preferences.[/quote]

PP sounds like literally the opposite of difficult you lunatic.[/quote]
