If you are a woman do you feel that your husband is another child to clean up after?

I often thought, about my ex-husband, that everyone would've been far better off if I had raised him and somebody else married him.

No. I felt that he was a loved one, and when I loved him, and he me, I delighted in helping him in any way that I could. It gave me joy to cook for him and to do his laundry. However, when a loved one begins to be....not so loving...you feel differently about what you want to do for him.

Enjoying singlehood. The dog is enough of a slob, although I don't complain as the love she pours out far makes up for it.

Nah because I'm a shit homemaker when I have work 45+ hrs a week too. It'll either look like a bachelor pad or he can clean up his own shit.

it’s irritating. I’m not his maid. i used to think he just had a hard time keeping up but he is just content living in chaos. it drives me bananas because it takes 2 seconds to put something where it belongs. @memyselfandyou

@DoubleRings to it impacts other areas of your marriage?
DoubleRings · 51-55, F
yes i would say it makes me somewhat unhappy. there’s a couple reasons - first of all he is a hoarder and can’t let annnnnyyyytjing go and 90% of it is literally garbage — old newspapers bills, stupid shit he’s had for a million years. about a year ago we had a flood. it still didn’t put any pressure on him to get rid of very much. there were some rooms i couldn’t even enter.

the second part is that the house is never clean. ever. far be it from him to ever clean up after me, because he won’t even clean up after himself. it’s always on me. always. @memyselfandyou

How can a woman marry a dude who can’t clean up after himself ? People need some self respect 🙄

One reason I'm no longer married and live only with an actual child.
