[quote=Anonymous]OP, you stated that your DH is in the reserves. That means that he went through basic training, and at one point, he *had* to get up very early no matter what. So he did have that discipline in him at some point.  He's now lost it because he's gotten lazy, and he has you to pick up the slack.

In the military, he had to have kept all his stuff orderly and be organized. So again, at one point, he did have those skills.

My brother is the *exact* same way. He was in the military. When he came back, he was super disciplined; woke up early; made his bed with those hospital corners, folded his laundry properly and was very fit. Fast forward five years and everything went to hell.  Lazy, no discipline or self control.  Spent most of his free time playing on his computer; no real social life. Why? Because when he came back, he lived with our parents (which was fine), but my mother did everything for him, just like when he lived at home before.  The military had whipped him into shape, but my  mother unraveled it all by babying him.

Finally got married to a mail order bride essentially, in his late 30's. No GF before this.  His wife now takes care of him, but they have no kids, though they've tried. Honestly, it's better that they don't because he wouldn't be able to handle it.  My parents are super thankful that he has someone to take care of him because he can't seem to take care of himself let alone a child. He's a manchild, and my parents have finally acknowledged it.[/quote]
