There is a saying, you are as old as you think of yourself. And likewise, what you feel yourself to be has a lot to do with grace or disgrace. The concrete chores are there to do, either by yourself or jointly by both. A positive attitude helps to enjoy the work.
The issue is some guys are so lazy, picky, inconsiderate, and lack sense of humor. In this case, complaint adds to your depression. In stead rather empower share of the chores, and express anticipation in an acceptable way. Show appreciation of any improvement made and be patient in giving assistance. The most important part is to initiate something light to lure double care.
Whether for wife working or not working, home making is something to be highly valued as no less contribution to the family, esp. when there are children to care about.

In some places Wife means that you houseclean,cook, and do other small task. But it is always nicer when things are shared.
W..washer of clothes,dishes,backs and kids..etc..
I. Irons,intercepts fights, interprets mixed messages hubby sends.
F. fixes breakfast,lunch and supper,flushes toilets,fixes things around the house she has been after hubby for 6 months to do.,follows behind to pick up laundry everyone forgets to put in the hamper.
E. Eats,sleep and does housework. Everything else..

My husband rarely ask me to ever get him a cup of coffee or a glass of water he usually gets up and gets it himself. I have a smart solution..You have a table that is against the wall and their is a plug on the wall why not plug up the coffee pot on the table and move the toaster to where the coffee pot was?? That is how I would solve the problem of that. Or if I got up to use the restroom just go and get him water/drink after I went so he wouldn't wait till I sit back down to ask me. Well, nothing can do about the back scratching/massaging because I know him nothing works like the real thing for him.. You pampered him to much when you first met him and spoiled him with things like that well now he just expects it. Mine ask me if I will do it and I usually do but when my hands start hurting I let him know and he gets up which since I am a crocheter it doesn't take long for my hands to hurt..He needs to see a masseuse..

I would have to say to goes both ways. There are days, I think that I am considered a maid. There are more days when I am treated like a wife.

He KNOWS I'm smarter than he is. But sometimes I get the "why didn't you serve me" treatment. Usually I let him live...

some guys do treat their other half like, that but they don't understand that it's a give and take, i don't mean she always gives and he always takes.you must share on things,sometimes you might want something your way but you must give in and let them have it their way and then things will work out better.

i thank a marriage should be 100%from both,and i do believe it take two to make a marriage work,but we do things for you guys because we love you .but some of you guys treat us like we are nothing to you but a maid,housekeeper,cook.not a loving wife.i dont think you guys would like it if we treat you like you guys treat us.thank you for your comment

I swear sometimes he treats me as if I was one of the kids, and they are grown, married and gone. It just seems the longer we are married, he has to ask stupid questions, if he would only think about what he was going to say, before he opens his mouth.
It gets quite annoying at times. If I take the car to town, later he will ask where I took the car. Duh, I said I was going to town. LOL.
Men you can't live with them, and you can't live with out them. For some this would be true.

Using capital letters is considered yelling and is frowned upon by some people. Some use caps to make a point or get one across but to much of it is a no no..

You are very welcome Wildcat, You hit a subject that many of us can relate to. Maybe we should use some duck tape. LOL
You have a good night too. Couldn't sleep, so am back up.

My boyfriend teats me like a partner...we split up the house hold chores...the ONLY thing that is a specified one is he takes out the trash on garbage night in the winter ... only because I hate the cold. Other than that he relies on me to act as his brain hahaha
He definately does NOT treat me like a maid...I work harder than he does and he knows it
