Quote From: zakksmommPeople forget that when they get married, that partying is over. They have to meet in the middle to meet their spouses needs. It's not all about ME! ME! ME! anymore. That is all some people think about, though is themselves. For the lazy one, come on, how disgusting it is when someone wants to live in a pig sty. People who live in a dirty house and don't want to launder clothes are pretty disgusting.
I think if you are partying together -- then it DOESN'T have to be OVER!! Saying its over - out of your life completely - sounds like you have been put on 'death row' once you say 'I DO' -- Thats just crazy!! If you both enjoy going out - and are OKAY with your spouse going out separate with friends - than what is the big deal? We both like to go out and have a good time - away from kids - didn't think it was so wrong....
I agree with the laudering of clothes.. but maybe he is just more ANAL about it than she is!! I'm sure she does help.. but in her own due time!!
I live at home with one still stuck in the old gender roles -- but I am slowly getting him to see it more my way!! We BOTH work outside of the home - so we both have to help out - it has taken many arguments to get him to where we are now -- basically if he complains about it.. I don't touch it...if he wants it done badly enough.. he will do it himself!! He thinks that if he does OUTSIDE work - thats enough.. I say BULLCRAP!!!!
