[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH is great but one issue is that my to do list is TODAY's list and his to do list is this months. So I need to be very clear when something is a thing that he needs to do and when, as compared to something that I am going to do. He got in a bad habit of making everything a "we" and then I would do it because he hadn't gotten around to it yet. It's not intentional but the unintentional affect meant way more work for me and things just magically appearing or being done for him.[/quote] OP here- yes to all of this. If I waited for DH to take care of certain things- they would get done in days, weeks, next month. There is a lot of "we" need to do/buy this...and we ends up being me. Just as you said- its not intentional, but has resulted in way more work for me and things just being taken care of.[/quote] I've gotten very blunt on "who is we?" every time it comes up. And making sure he understands that stuff like changing the HVAC filter, fine, keep that on the list for 3 weeks. But getting milk is a today requirement or I murder you in a coffee deprived rage.[/quote]
