[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]If he's leaving his beer cans lying around, then that's not you asking him to do things for you, or for the kids, or for your marriage. By leaving his beer cans around, he's asking you to pick up after him - you're saying no thanks. But clear, don't let him confuse the issue - when he doesn't clean up after himself, and waits to be reminded to help keep the household running, *he's the one asking you* to take care of him like a baby. [/quote] 1+. OP, I think this is the problem. He is not even cleaning up after *himself*. You are not making requests: a "request" implies something beyond this baseline. Your situation is so lopsided that it is going to be hard to unravel. Incidentally the best way to avoid doing a "request" is to complain about someone's tone.[/quote] ah yes, play the fake victim card: "How DARE you ask me 5x to put my trash in the garbage can. Shut up!"[/quote]
