On a rare visit, I was sharing it with a couple of men, fresh from the gym, chatting about their DWs.

One was talking about how his wife is so houseproud, he can't touch anything, how he has a constant list of DIY jobs, but is not allowed to make any mess while doing them. The other talked about how he had to do all the housework and how his DW can't even put something in a cupboard without it falling out next time the door's opened.

They joked a bit about how they should swap for a week or two and then the first one said "and they've always got something to moan about" without any irony.

I'm sorry, I couldn't help it, I just LOL.

Hecate, not sure they even realised I was laughing at them, just a weird old biddy laughing to herself in the corner. Judging from their other conversation they were very young and spent a lot of time in the gym, but I didn't have my glasses on...

its a long standing joke at my dh work what a terrible wife i am, as i 'allow' my dh to do the washing up.
basicaly i just dont do it, so he does.
i feed and clothe him and his dc, i clean the house, do the shopping and work pt, and put up with him and his mess.
i feel its the least he could do.
he is always trying to generate pity at his work over the sorry state of affairs and how i seemed like the perfect stepford wife beore marraige, he mainly gets the piss taken out of him.
he says i should have let him know before the vows that i wouldnt wash up.
i told him he should have mentioned his allergy to bathing, his habit of stripping off and dropping his clothes on the floor from the front door to the sofa, and his flatulance.

i think i win.
