My wonderful husband clears away after dinner, however he never does all of it, I can guarantee the dishwasher will be filled with whatever goes in but the pans will be left to soak and the glasses will be sitting on the drip mat.

One day I would to have the whole job done!

I won’t list them all? but by far the worst is not listening . I get half way though telling or asking him something and he is gone. He hears half a sentence and then decides what the rest will be. Invariably wrong !

Kate1949, I’m reminded of a male journalist saying (writing) that a really good way to infuriate your wife was to do some hoovering of the bits that often get left, e.g. under beds, and then say to her - all smugly virtuous - ‘Goodness me - it’s been a long time since anyone hoovered under there, hasn’t it?’
? - it did make me laugh though.

Only doing half a job ? He’s very willing, but I feel like it all needs doing again. We take turns so I know when it’s mine turn it gets done properly.

And ignoring anything that needs fixing, it all needs pointing out to him. I genuinely think he doesn’t see things need doing. Then I have to get a man in ? Good job he has good points.

Think I'm married to DillytheGardeners husband the constant sniffing/coughing gets really annoying. Also no organisational skills of tools/stuff in his shed/garage so untidy, can never find anything so then buys another. He has so many duplicate items.
