Re: Am I the only one on here...

Am I the only one on here who has a DH who cooks and cleans and generally takes care of himself without constant nagging? I feel like I'm in the minority.
Nope, you're not alone. My FH is usually the one who cooks during the week because he's home first and I usually don't stoll in until 7. And he's a way better cleaner than I am... he's the one who will initiate a huge cleaning day.

Re: Am I the only one on here...
My husband and I work equally around the house, so you're not alone. CUrrently, I do more to take care of the baby, but that's because he's working and I'm on maternity leave, so it's pretty much my job now. But when he gets home, he helps out as much as he can. What I really love about it, though, is that he doesn't think he deserves special recognition for doing all that he does!!
After reading about what a lot of the women on here go through, I know I'm lucky!!

No, you're not the only one! DH likes to cook (when he has time) and doesn't mind cleaning. He's usually the one to nag me to clean.

Nope. My husband does a lot around the house. There really isn't anything I need to nag him about to do.

Re: Am I the only one on here...
No, my DH normally does this on his own when I don't. I never have to ask him, he just does it if I can't. He does his own laundry and helps me with whatever I need in the house- no nagging required.

DH does almost all of the cooking and I do the dishes, we share all of the other cleaning. I don't have to nag him to help out.
This is our situation as well....I WAY prefer dishes to cooking

Re: Am I the only one on here...
DH does all of the cooking and cleans the dishes more than I do. He does the laundry and we split the other house cleaning chores.

Re: Am I the only one on here...
My dh is getting better with helping me. I guess he is tired of hearing the nagging and I told him I am a much calmer person when I am not overwhelmed.

Re: Am I the only one on here...
No...my husband does it all...sometimes more than me! He cleans, cooks (but I prefer to), does all the bills, laundry, takes care of the kids (on the weekend), brings DS to Karate (when he's home). I really can't complain. But I knew I would always marry a self-sufficient man. I am NOT a Suzy Homemaker type (though I have become a bit of one since having the kids). I could NEVER be married to a guy like my father who can't even FIND the kitchen or clean up after himself. That drives me crazy!!

Re: Am I the only one on here...
Well mine can't cook to save his life (but then I don't even think I'll eat any concoction he cooks) but I can't clean or iron the way he does.
We're a match made in household heaven!

No. Mine is a great help. He asks if he can cook, he picks up after himself. He helps me....I'll keep him!

Re: Am I the only one on here...
No you are not. I never complain about my husband on here because he does so much for me and because he gives me no reason to complain.. He cooks, cleans and takes care of me. I could never dream of a better husband.

Re: Am I the only one on here...
No mine does A LOT.
Sometimes more than me I feel and I get guilty about that.
Though we both contribute in different ways.....

Re: Am I the only one on here...
My DH also does a LOT. He is not much of a cook, but will make something if I am not up to it or if I ask him to. He might do more than I do at times around the house - one of the benefits of marrying later and marrying someone who lived alone for a long time.

My DH cleans, almost annoyingly obsessively. He doesn't cook though (except for grilled cheese which are fantastic! )

My DH cooks and cleans and helps out with DD - we are equals and do things together.
Except for the heavy lifting
