Been with DP 7 years, one child together. Last year we got a dog, a very active breed that he chose, had dogs all my life I agreed she would be suitable for our very active lifestyle.
DP works long hours, sometimes 12-14 hours a day, 3 or 4 of which could be driving there and back (he works nationwide).
I also work, 8 hours a day. The novelty of walking the dog has been wearing off for him, meaning it's my job to walk him before he leaves while DD is in bed.
We also have a dog walker who comes at lunchtime to walk him. I get home from work and again walk the dog. Tidy up do washing etc.
HOWEVER on the odd time he finishes work early he'll come home and watch TV. Just watch the TV. Not walk the dog, or tidy round, or put the rubbish out or wash up if there is any. It's all left to me. So I work my 8 hours, do all the washing up, he mostly makes tea as he enjoys cooking.
His argument is he's been at work all day, but just because iv only been at work the hours before I start is spent rushing around getting DD ready for school, after work I spend time with DD doing homework etc.
I do all the washing, ironing, putting away. My weekends are spent doing housework. He sometimes works 6 days meaning he only has one day off during the weekend.
AIBU to think just because he works a few hours longer a day I have to do all the shit? He also doesn't expect me to do it all he does tell me to sit down and relax but I can't if there are jobs to do
