To make DH make all the coffees?

I drink A LOT of coffee, starting from the one DH brings me in bed at 6.30am. Obvs when he's at work during the day I make my own but when he's home I ask him to make all my drinks for me. It's just nicer to drink a hot drink that's been made for you.

For balance I do make him the odd cup of tea but then he only ever has one occasionally.

He's just grumbled slightly at making me one just now and I replied that it's the basic foundation of our marriage. There are certain things I always do for him, and his job is to keep me supplied with coffees.

AIBU?

I think a lot of people are taking this far too seriously. The op prefers it when her Dh makes the coffees, he prefers it when she does the online banking. In most relationships each partner has little jobs they do. I always empty the kitchen bin as the feeling of the bin liner gives DH the heeby jeebies! He always mows the lawn as I'm convinced I'll cut through the wire and electrocute myself.

The op was quite clearly being lighthearted even though she didn't signpost this in her thread title. She only mentioned her mental illness when other posters questioned why her DH helped with the housework when she doesn't work.

There's really no need for the aggression and the name calling is beyond belief.

Op, ignore them.

I don't know her at all and am gobsmacked at the aggression in some of the responses.
