[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you me? If I ask my husband to do the dishes, he'll say why do we have to generate so many dishes? We're a household of 4. If I ask him to take the trash out, he'll say he'll get to it later - which is never. We fight about this all the time and he would say he'll do better. [/quote] Very passive aggressive. Here's the pattern: you ask for help, say for dishes, he shifts the topic to not whether he's going to help but the unrelated subject of why there are so many. It's a much more pleasant discussion than to be accountable for helping. And saying he will do something but not actually doing it is the definition of passive aggressive. I'm sorry, your husband turned into a petulant teenager. I hope he grows up. I can see why the fights never get resolved: he perpetuates them, then you're the bad guy. What an ass.[/quote]
