@sheisapaigeturner: I am not alone in this experience. Many women have been in this exact same position. The work required to manage a home and a family is not something that one person should ever have to carry alone. It is possible to change these dynamics. It is hard but with the right tools and support it’s possible and it’s so much better on the other side. #marriageadvice #mentalload #mentalloadofmotherhood #divorced #divorcedmom #parentingadvice #default

Ahhh yes.. my husband is the same. He washes his own clothes and he cooks his own meals. He absolutely looks after himself with clothing and food. But he’s never cooked his children a meal. He’s never bathed them. He’s never fed them in the middle of the night. He’s never had to shop for groceries. He doesn’t take care of the finances. He doesn’t even think about birthday or Christmas presents or celebrations. Doesn’t make sure his parents are okay. He’s never made me a meal never even bought me a cup of tea. The man doesn’t even buy his own medications . And that my friend is the difference. Men will care for themselves but they will not care for anyone else and then they’ll get angry and abusive when you ask them to step up.

When I divorced my husband, he said ‘you will see how much I did around here now!’ Still waiting to see!

Even the statement “ok, tell me what I need to do” adds mental load in itself. I know his intent is there but it’s just like… SEE IT ON YOUR OWN

I don't want kids, my bf did. Told him that if he can keep the kitchen counter clean for a month I will consider it. 20 years later we still don't have kids. 😂

Even if the physical load is similar, the MENTAL load is a silent killer

Telling them over and over leads to resentment. resentment is difficult to come back from. I'm glad you were able to turn it around ❤️

I don’t understand this at all. I’ve done work from home like Paige and I’ve been a stay at home dad and during those times there’s no way I was going to leave anything for there to be done when my wife got home. I looked after the kids and got them to where they needed to be like school, sport or drs and I did the cleaning, organising and cooking ect ect. To be upset he didn’t take out the rubbish is crazy 😂

I hate this kind of narrative "Your husband can change and he's worthy, you just need to give him an instruction manual, remind him every day and wait months or years to see the change!".
