Relationship better or worse since Covid?

Mine has really gone downhill. We are still together but things I didn’t notice before are really starting to irritate me (We have both been working from home). I’ve noticed how lazy he is, how disinterested he is in me and what I do, and how the kids seem to be just one big annoyance to him due to the noise they make when they get home from school etc. Previously he was a leave the house at 7 and get home at 7 man which clearly suited him! Our sex life has gone downhill too but this may be more to do with him annoying the hell out of me!

Anyone else feel like this could be the beginning of the end?

I'm the opposite. I'm realising how much energy my husband has ( and how much I don't) . We are both WFH, he's in the spare room, I'm in the living room. He makes breakfast, makes lunch, does housework during breaks. He is always looking for ways to achieve more in his day. This doesn't bode well for me as I'm more an easy going, enjoy the small moments in life type of person. We have an elderly in-law to care for and three teenage children so we have enough to be doing just getting through. Thankfully, so far, we are both okay with each others way of doing things. I think we may get through unscathed but who knows! It's not healthy to do this long term, there's a reason you need separation in relationships!
