Doing something nice

[stuffedfull]

Don't you f ing hate it when he does something nice and then throws it back in your face for 'all the really good things he has done'. The fact that he swept the floor after dd's party yesterday seems to make him a martyr - a deeply resentful martyr at that. I personally don't feel the need to mention the party invites, arrangements with mums, the food, the music, the party games, the going home pressies etc etc. God that's annoying but having vented am feeling slightly better!!!

Faced with that kind of childish attention-seeking I'd have had no hesitation mentioning the party invitations, arrangements etc. etc... Is this something that happens often?

I expect my dh to do stuff for the kids & household. It's not his gift to me, it's part of being in a partnership.

I think it's funny.... 'I washed up for you and watched DS'...

I ignore it and remind DP that he has equal responsibility in the house. Think it goes in one ear and out the other though because I hear him telling people that he does the school run etc as though it's an achievement!
