I have two friends I have known for years who I introduced to DP when we got together. They are DS' godparents and we go on hols,nights out etc. When DP was unemployed last year they came to ours to help him decorate (without their encouragement it would not have been done!). They have just bought a house that needs lots of work which they are on a tight timescale to finish and they are trying to do lots themselves to save money. I went to help yesterday while DP at work and arranged to go back today but when I asked DP if he was coming to help today he refused as I had not told him?? Surely he should think to offer? I did think he would turn up later and was very embarrassed that he did not offer some help though nothing was said. I did ring and ask him to prepare dinner and it was ready when I got home and he had put the Xmas decorations away.I made a small comment about dinner and remarked that I like to put the decorations away because I am quite prissy about them going in correct boxes etc and I was met with a torrent of abuse about how he can never do anything right and how I did not greet him when I came home (hands full of shopping)! I suspect his beloved football team were on television this afternoon and he only put the decorations away so he could pretend he had been busy! Sorry for long post but cannot understand why he is so selfish.
