[quote=Anonymous]We struggle with this and I have found that the only thing that works is to bring up these things when we are happy, like when we are out having a date night or something. I know it sounds counterintuitive — why ruin a good time with complaining? I think the thing is that I can be more solutions-focused rather than self-righteous and he’s less defensive and tired. He’s so much better around the house after we have these discussions. I do think there is kind of a regression to the mean so we have to have these conversations periodically. It’s frustrating for sure, but he’s always going to kind of be like this and I won’t spend the rest of my life finishing every task for him, getting angrier and angrier. [/quote]
