I'm so fucking tired of old fucks telling me how to be a house wife. When I first moved in with my husband I told his mom that I didn't know how to cook too much bc I always burn things, she offered me to cook and added, "I cook so he can come home to a warm home cooked meal." When she saw that he was cooking and helping me clean she would say how she doesn't let him do chores or cook bc he works all day and deserves to relax after. Ofc when he was at work, she would always make me feel horrible for making him help me with the kitchen full of dishes every night. When we moved out it was hard to let him help me with chores bc of her, I never had a second thought about cooking bc its hard to say he didn't want to cook when he took so much pride in what he makes and how he smiles when he cooks. I just got off the phone with my mom and she was telling me that I give him too much chores and that I gotta remember that he works all day. Just bc the chores are now split evenly now, I was getting overwhelmed with dishes bc our kitchen is so tiny so 10 dishes looks like 100. I'm not %100 with the chores bc I feel bad bc of his mom and now my mom, I had just gotten comfortable with him doing dishes in week days and asking him for help with them when I needed it, but I feel like a horrible wife for even listening to my husbands demands to even out the chores. Chores shouldn't be 20 80 they should be as even as they can get, but according to every old person I'm just a bad house wife. His chores aren't even big just cat boxes vacuum and clean microwave bc it's really high up.
