[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so many marriages among my friends - the wife says hubby is hitting her up for more sex and she's like why do you possibly think i'd want to have sex with you when you just let me shoulder so much of the burden in our lives while you "try your best"[/quote]

I can answer this. When H finally agreed to go to therapy - it was that or divorce - I realized he literally did not hear me when I thought I was being totally blunt. It was not until the therapist told him, "If you want to stay marriage, you need to pick up more chores around the house," that he began to understand. My H was adamantly opposed to me quitting work or cutting back to part time but just stopped when he "got tired." He could not understand that "just stopping" when we were out of clean clothes and dishes, and lunches needed to be packed, was not an option.[/quote]

Quoting again to add: the result was that H agreed to do half of the necessary things but nothing he deemed "extra." I fought it for a while, but then realized that if I wanted to entertain, or teach the children to send thank you notes, or participate in certain activities, it would all be on me. He believed that the bare minimum cleaning, eating, etc. was all that was required. [/quote]
That's most men - bare minimum parenting.[/quote]
