[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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.

Example:

He'll do a load of laundry but forgets about it for days. If he does manage to toss it in the dryer, it often comes out still damp, which means I end up rewashing it anyway.

Putting away the laundry? Great idea! But where are all my underwear? Oh, they’re in the toddler’s drawer, and the kids’ clothes are mixed in with the bathroom towels.

He can load the dishwasher to the brim but never actually starts it. I genuinely don't get this one! Is he too lazy to add the detergent?

When he offers to put away leftovers, I end up with food on a plate without a cover just sitting in the fridge.

He’ll take out the trash but never replaces the bag.

And those trash bags? They sit on our back porch until pickup day.

He might offer to cook dinner but ends up absolutely destroying the kitchen in the process, leaving me to cleanup.

He volunteers to pick up groceries but forgets important items (even with reminders, texts, and lists).

He neglects the dog’s water bowl and food dish. If it weren’t for me they would have died from dehydration by now. He thinks it’s ok to never wash their dishes.

I don’t mind restocking the diaper bag, but he will leave wet clothes, dirty diapers, dirty bottles in there (for me to find).

Gives our toddler a bath but doesn’t wash soap out properly or brush her hair.

These are just a few. There are many more examples.

Is there any hope for him and us? Are my expectations too high? Do you think therapy would help us? [/quote]

What a child.

But likely one or more of the following:
Narcissism
Misogyny 
Golden child syndrome 
Routine jerk
Village Idiot 
Mental disorders and zero exec functioning skills
Does. Not. Care. About. You. Or. The. House. [/quote]

Btw folks, “caring” is an action word. Something you demonstrate. Not something you merely say you are. Show it, don’t tell it. [/quote]
