[QUOTE="donna723, post: 313049, member: 1883"] You have just described reason #947 why I am divorced and plan to stay that way! When I was married we both worked full time, both gone from the house the same number of hours a day, but it was just expected that [I][U]I[/U][/I] would do all the cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc. He came home and hit the sofa with the remote in his hand - I reported straight to the kitchen! He didn't even do the yard work - our son did it! He would [I]tell[/I] our son to do it and figured that HE was like the 'chore coordinator' - he [I]arranged[/I] to have it done therefore his part was finished!! I would have to be deathly ill and refusing to get out of the bed before he would even attempt to do anything that he considered to be [U]my[/U] job! And if he ever did heat up some soup for the kids or make a couple of hot dogs for them to eat, he expected endless praise and thanks for the enormous sacrifice he had made! :angry: Thank God and Greyhound he's GONE! :happy: [/QUOTE]
