Talked to husband last night. Ideas? Thoughts? Am I expecting too much?

[QUOTE="Shari, post: 418433, member: 1848"] I agree, DDD. And I feel better about the situation and really, nothing has changed, except my angle and approach. lol If he truly doesn't know what respect is (and I look back on conversations with his mom, and OMG, that so fits...she thinks respect is "I didn't call you a *itch" - no, honey, its a whole lot deeper than that) and is doing this junk (or not) simply because he doesn't know any different, heck, that's an easy (theoretically speaking) fix (so long as he's willing...and given what was going on when I got home last night, I'm gonna venture a guess he's willing...) I'm willing to take that on. He doesn't hate cooking. I hate when he cooks and doesnt follow-thru with clean-up cause he's such a flipping mess, and then I go to cook the next meal and the kitchen is a war zone, and it takes me twice as long to do what I need to do...so yeah, here's your piece, please take ownership, I think he might go for that. Will take time and help. And exactly, 3D. While he's the one that needs to step up to really make change happen? I'm the dumb biddy that let it get to this point. I don't get off scott free here. Guilty as charged, and believe me, I know it! [/QUOTE]
