So, Chef Extraordinaire has served up a dish of domestic drama, leaving Mr. Lazybones hungry and fuming. She’s feeling a bit guilty, questioning if she was too harsh in her culinary strike. But she’s also tired of being the only one cooking up a storm while he lounges around. She’s checked in on his mental health, and he seems content with his work. But the question remains: was she wrong to stop cooking without warning? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this spicy situation… ️ ️

ESH. Relationships should be 50/50 but people are human and sometimes the other partner needs to pick up the slack. Some days/weeks it can be 60/40 or even 80/20. Would it have killed you to do the dishes and also make dinner? Maybe it would set the precedent that you can help each other out sometimes.

I’m also a healthcare worker and my partner also does 99.9% of grocery shopping/meal planning/cooking. I generally do the dishes/vacuuming/cleaning.

Does that stop me from making us dinner or swinging by the grocery store to grab stuff we need? No. If I get a sudden burst of energy or have a fun recipe I want to try out I’ll make it and prep us dinner. Sometimes I’m working a string of shifts and can’t do dishes so my partner will cook, clean, and do laundry for both of us.

We aren’t children. We don’t punish each other for not doing our ‘chores.’ We’re adults trying to keep house together and survive life. We help each other out when the other needs a rest day or a break.

Instead of immediately getting petty and upset maybe you could have just done the dishes and when he comments how he was going to do them you could say, ‘it’s okay, it looks like you needed to rest and I wanted to help you out.’

Now, if he continually leaves the dishes and always expects you to pick up his slack then have a CONVERSATION with him about how you need him to step up and you would also like a break sometimes.

People aren’t mind readers. And you’re treating him like you’re badly parenting a child.
