[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP HEre;

This took some type of turn.
I actually also work a high pressure job, she's just in a more lucrative field. 
I am also not expecting her to do half the work. I recognize she works more than me and brings in more cash. That isn't lost on me. 
I cook, and not just crap meals, but decent stuff that takes preparation in the morning as well. 
I am simply expecting her to do some things around the house. Like doing the dishes after I am done (yes, i do leave dishes overnight like an asshole, i do rinse most of them though)
I expect her to clean up from time to time. 
The reason we don't have cleaners come on the weekends is because both of us don't want to stay home.

IT's also not as if she works 9-8 daily, lately its been 9-7, while i've been at work about the same time. It's also not as if i make no cash. She is just an attorney at a big firm and i work as an attorney at a smaller place.

We got into a fight this morning about this, which is why i called her a bum. I do regret that, but I still think she is taking advantage of me. She isn't a mean spirited and is grateful for the food i make. But instead of thanks, and delicious, i would like more help from time to time.

And we're likely not having kids. 1st world problems here. 
People here are always quick to attack.

Not trying to offend, but 9-7 or 8 doesn't sound particularly rough unless you have long commutes?  In either case, you both should set some time on Sunday to meal prep/cook and clean together.  DH and I do this and not only does it help the weekdays be so much less stressful, but convinced us to get bi-weekly cleaners.  [/quote]
