[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is SO familiar, down to being called a nag and telling me he wasn't going to do something "on your timetable." I had to completely take over whatever was important to me. He wouldn't clean up, so I hired a maid. He wouldn't plan dates, so I'd go out with my friends. If I want to try a restaurant or see a show, I make the reservation, arrange childcare and send him a calendar invite. Those never come to me, btw. He plans nothing, zero, ever. He got annoyed when the grass got too long, but it didn't bother me so he had to either mow or hire someone.

He's forgetful - can't seem to place his keys or wallet in the same place every day, so he runs around the house looking for them creating anxiety for himself. Will he ever learn? Apparently not.

If I need him to do something, it's like pulling the reins on a mule. Completely stubborn and oppositional. He gets it from his Dad and has passed it to our youngest. And so it goes...

Now for the kicker, he's a partner in a major firm and his Dad was a bigwig. Careerwise, they never drop the ball. It's at home where inept is the default.[/quote]

Wow. I could have written this. Except my spouse refuses to pay to have professionals do the jobs that are left undone insisting that they will get to it on their timetable.[/quote]
