My DH has dyspraxia & it makes living with him so incredibly difficult. I love him, and as a general rule we are happy but he can't/won't do housework & I generally feel like I'm his mother as opposed to his wife.
He needs to be shadowed if he does any housework which at first I thought would be good, because he would learn and going forward we could share tasks. Unfortunately not, on top of being dyspraxic he's very lazy and takes as many shortcuts as possible. As a result, I do every inch of housework and I also have to make his lunches for work because if I don't he goes to work without food and I'm left feeling awful.
I just wish he could do things like I do them, I know that's mean and inconsiderate but after 4 years I'm exhausted. He makes no effort to learn and when he does learn he slowly starts making cutbacks so that it's pointless him doing any housework as it creates more mess for me to deal with.
I guess there's no real AIBU here, I just needed to rant I think
