[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He came home to tell you about something he was excited about and felt flattered by. You called him lazy and talked about his flaws.  I am having trouble understanding how you expected him to react. I know he isn't helping at home, but he's your husband and you should try to muster a little bit of support for him.

Men get better as they get older. They contribute more and make more responsible decisions. Wait him out.  [/quote]

No, he came home to selfishly ask her to do even more of his share of housework with no acknowledgement of his failures thus far.

Support is mutual.  Is he supporting her?  Or is he using her?[/quote]

All of this is accurate. The husband wants “support” in the form of a free pass from any obligations in the home. “Just keep making everything happen here at home. Don’t ask anything of me. Throw me a ticker tape parade if I make a dinner or empty the dishwasher once or twice in a month. Demand nothing of me. That’s how I’ll know you’re supporting me.”

Yeah, that’s a hard pass. [/quote]
