Op here, I agree.  I am just stuck, we've had this talk countless times.  He doesn't see it and is just lazy.  Like on the rare occasion I go out, like once every 3-4 months, the kids aren't even in jammies in bed (not that I care bc it's truly not a big deal, but it's just illustrative that he does NOTHING).[/quote]

Are you very specific with him? Like, on the night you're going out, do you say to him, "You need to have the children bathed, put in their PJs, and put to bed before I get home at X time." Some guys are really clueless and need that dumbed-down level of instruction. Have you ever thought about going to at least one marital counseling session together, just to see if there is a better way to get the message across to him that you are feeling so frayed?

[b]I get what this poster is saying, but it really sucks to have to parent your spouse like that and give him a list of chores. Then if he doesnt follow through won't OP be twice as angry? Does she have to also make dinner before she leaves to relax, clean up after, and micromanage the whole thing? Not relaxing IMO[/b].[/quote]

Op here.  Yes, it's exhausting.  Yes I need to give a list and most of the time he won't do it bc he "forgot" or is too tired, etc.  Anything lame.  He's not an asshole, he's just lazy and takes me WAAAAY for granted.[/quote]

If he ignores even specific requests from you, gives lame excuses, is really lazy, and take you for granted to the point that you are exhausted and feel fried, then sorry, he sounds like a total a-hole.
