[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My guess is he did stuff early in the relationship and you always corrected him, pointed out how it wasn't done "your way" which equal the only correct way.  [/quote]

OMG how many women have to explain that’s not at all what happened.

I have never in my life complained about H’s cooking. He’s a fantastic cook. But he still refuses to cook unless I do 90% of the work. He waltzes in to a fully stocked kitchen, selected recipe, trashes the place, pats himself on the back for “doing dinner”, [b]then wanders away from stacks of dirty dishes, spills all over the counter and floor, trash everywhere to let the magic fairies clean up and replenish the groceries[/b].

Are you cleaning up the mess?  You can’t.  You leave it all there.  That’s the only way they learn.

On my first maternity leave I told my husband he was in charge of cooking.  I told him this means he buys the groceries, cleans up etc.  Not asking me what’s for dinner expecting me to hand him a list for the store.  He learned. [/quote]

They can get a law degree, but you have to list all of the things that encompass "cooking."  It's so ridiculous.[/quote]
