[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can just keep being resentful or you can accept that he needs you to put some scaffolds in place. Instead of “assigning” tasks, set aside a block of time where you BOTH can work on the unsexy stuff—the bill paying, responses to invitations, calls to parent, etc. Meet at the kitchen table on Sunday from 8-9pm. Put it on the calendar. Write it in bold and post on the fridge and bathroom mirror: Weekly check in tonight 8pm Kitchen Table.  Both of you have their phone and laptop there. Just get it all done sitting there together.  Make a list and cross off items as you get them done. Make that time sacred. Then you can have a glass of wine together and have some sex. Or just go to bed. The bottom line is that you both need some structure. [/quote]

Uh, no. This is still her being his mommy.[/quote]

I guess you’re right. But at least she’s not doing the actual work. He’s sitting there responding to the emails, paying the bills, etc. She’s tried to do the reminding and getting pissed. It doesn’t work. What are you suggesting? [/quote]
