It's a complicated back story which I have posted about before in bits but dh went through a phase the last 2 years of just being really really unreasonable , annoyed , wanted me to have an abortion. We have been together 15 years until the last 2 years he was just fantastic and tbh now he is starting to behave more normally again.
The last 2 years he has done NO housework or childcare - we have 6 children and I was left to my own devices for that time. He has recently started to do bits of his own accord. On the weekend he did a few loads of washing. It seriously the first time in years he has done anything helpful just because he wanted to.
The thing is I am being left feeling like I should be worshipping him for this - by both him and his sister (who he of course mentioned it to).
I still have issues and well I don't want to say flashbacks that's too dramatic but the last two years has really affected me. I find it very difficult to talk about. I think things are really improving now - and tbh I hope they do we were very happy the 13 years before that and we actually get on very well.
I feel like my grasp of realistic behaviour has been lost so o can't actually decide if I should be praising him for doing the washing and being really nice this weekend (he made me breakfast as well!). Or if I should just say a simple "thanks!"
Aibu to not want to go on saying thank you?
