After my COD4 quit on me, I decided to nuke some lasagna my wife made me the other day.
Last piece… so I throw the dish by the sink.
Um… there are a couple dishes there… 90% of which are mine. My wife is working on her masters and works 2 jobs. I come home from my breezy 9-5 and just slack all afternoon.
So I decide I’m going to do the dishes for her. I haven’t done dishes is over a year. She hasn’t complained once.
So as I’m washing the dishes I realize that it isn’t very difficult…
I also realize that after about 5 minutes they aren’t taking very long to wash.
I leave them in the drying rack, I’ll put them away later.
So, since the dishes aren’t that hard or time consuming to wash… I’ll let her continue to do it from now on.
But, I’m not going to lie. I do have a couple jobs around the house that she does not help with.
Putting away clean dishes.
Taking out the garbage
Putting clean clothes away
Mowing Lawn/Plowing Snow
Normal maint. around the house.
We share vacuuming… our house is always pretty clean, so we don’t have to clean very often. She does make 90% of the mess though.
I don’t clean the bathroom… or the kitchen or do the shopping.
What are you guys doing to help out around the house? Would it be worth it for you to pick up one of her jobs to make her day?
Booooo, I was expecting this story to go another route with your wife all turned on and you guys start getting it on pouring Dawn soap over each other and so on.
I don’t do any of that shit. When the woman said “I do” that meant “I do the dishes” “I do the laundry” and so on and so forth. That’s why women have smaller feet to begin with. So they can stand closer to the dishwasher the stove etc.
damn i was so disappointed with this story. was hoping for a i did the dishes story for my wife and she was so happy that she let me stick it in her butt and then she sucked me off type story.
My wife does the brunt/most of the house work. But I help where I can. She hates cleaning toilets so I do it, I also make the kids lunches in the morning and have no issues with washing a sink of dishes. Marriage is a partnership, this logic may be why i’ve been happily married for 15 years.
Good to know I’m not the only one doing the dishes. I cook, do the dishes, take care of laundry, all outside work, and vacuum. My wife does work all day and goes to school in the evening, then sometimes works on the weekends, plus I have minor OCD, so when there are a few dishes, or a small mess, I need to clean it up or else I can’t relax.
