Namechanger obviously. I nearly put this in relationships, then I realised I was asking AIBU so I thought here was better.
Back story: together 9 years, married 5. Have two small DCs. I work 2 days per week, DH works 4.
Ever since we have been together, I have done almost all of the housework except cooking the evening meal, which DH has always done. He doesn't mind (and so he bloody shouldn't as I do nearly everything else) and I think the main reason he does it is because he likes to eat earlier, say 7, whereas if I am cooking we're lucky to sit down at 9, what with putting the DCs to bed etc. But, as I say, it's not a problem, although MIL makes the odd dig, like they do.
DH occasionally puts a wash on, sometimes irons. What he hardly ever does, however, is the traditional "man" things. He will cut the lawn, that's about it. As for DIY, decorating, minor repairs, flat pack furniture . . . well either I do it or get someone in. This does irritate me a bit.
Right, back story done. We have been thinking about ways to liven up our sex life (which was good anyway but needed a touch of spice, we thought). I got the idea on here to do the thing where you both act out a fantasy for the other.
DH's was to come home from work and find me cooking dinner dressed as a sexy French Maid. Um . . . . . . so I did, and it was er . . . a great success.
So he has asked me to do it more often. I have done it five or six times now.
The thing is that the last couple of times I suddenly got the feeling that it's actually nothing to do with the outfit, or the sex, that actually he just wants his dinner cooked for him. Call it women's intuition if you like .
So, here's the AIBU - given that I don't really have any fantasy that I want to/could act out with DH, would it be unfair of me to say that my fantasy is to come home and find him in jeans, workman's boots, checked shirt and large tool,belt putting up some shelves or something similar?
I can see this all working out quite well but I feel guilty about being underhand, even though I think he may be himself be being a little less than honest.

AIBU?
To claim a sexual fantasy I don't actually have just because I think DH is taking the piss with his?
