[quote=Anonymous]When you're not upset, have a conversation where you talk about how you're feeling overwhelmed with domestic stuff. Share what it is you're doing around the house. (He may not realize everything you're doing.) Then, listen to him talk about what he's doing. (He may be doing things you don't realize.) Approach the problem as "I feel overwhelmed", not "you are not pulling your weight," and talk about what you can do together to fix this. Part of that can be you asking him to pick up some things he's not currently doing. Or maybe you'll decide to hire someone. I would bet your husband will be better about doing regular, small tasks than occasional big ones. Really involve him in this process as an equal partner and make him realize that you're happy. If he then agrees to do stuff and then doesn't, remind him a few times and if that doesn't work, have the conversation again and then tell him what decisions you are going to be making (which at this point could be lowering your expectations for what's going to get done and/or hiring more help.)
