[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH "retired" early at 60 and is a sahd/house husband.   He does some things well, but the cleaning and laundry are much to be desired. I still have to remind him when the laundry needs doing or how the toilet is disgusting and needs to be cleaned.

Sorry, but I don't find a man who wants to be a sahd all that appealing.[/quote]

No woman is attracted to a SAHD.  [/quote]

How is a 60 year old retired man a SAHD?[/quote]
I'm the PP married to that man.. we have an older HSer at home, and DH does all the shuttling around. DH has finally taken the responsibility of all the appointments for our DC (they have some SN so there are a lot of appts).  Prior to him retiring, I managed every single medical appointments for all of our kids while I worked FT.  He can barely deal with this one while not working.

It's annoying AF that I still have to somewhat manage him.

Next up: taxes. I did all the tax prep.  DH was a contractor, but I still ended up doing all the taxes, again, while I worked FT.  For this year, I told him where all the info is, and told him to deal with it. But, I might still have to check it because last time he did the taxes, he screwed up, and we had to pay penalties.

So, yea, agree with a PP. I'd rather he go back to work. At least then we have the money to outsource everything.  I hinted that he should go back to work but I don't know if he will.

So, OP, really think about whether you want to have a ltr with a man who wants to be a house husband.[/quote]
