[quote=Anonymous][quote]Does anyone else have a spouse who seems to do the bare minimum or half ass everything? I’m incredibly stressed out with him and finding it difficult to be attracted to him.[/quote]

Could you provide us with some additional information, please? Specifically, how much does he earn annually, and what percentage of your total household income does this represent?

If he is pulling in good money (say, over $400K) and this represents more than 75% of your household income, it is time to rethink how you balance household chores. However, he may be making substantially more per year than a new DH who can clean up after himself and others.

Do you not want to get a divorce? Good. Please take a look at what you make, where you spend it, and consider hiring someone to help with the stuff that bothers you.  Yes, the next wave of posters will say it does not matter how much he makes; he should still be able to do his laundry, etc. True.

However, every household task can be outsourced, and the cost of doing so for specific tasks can outweigh the trauma you seem to have over your list of things he does (or does not) do.[/quote]
