Oh Jack...it has always been like that. Really early in our relationship we used to watch 90210 with one of her girlfriends. So one night, I was in college at the time so afternoons were always free, I made dinner for all of us. It was one of the first dinners I had made for her at the time. So I made special mashed potatoes, sauteed veggies, and a meatloaf. So during dinner she complained how the meatloaf was dry and the veggies over cooked. Then while her and the friend talked about their day I cleaned up the kitchen...or so I thought....as I was politely told after the friend left. I did get a thank you, but it was just an example of what was to come.
So you shrunk the black sweater...the funny part about it all for us; While I have destroyed many of the kids and my clothes...I haven't damaged a single piece of hers. Just an oddity I suppose, but just how it has worked.
Hope you had a good thanksgiving.
I always joke that I am one of the few husbands who has been hollered at for doing laundry or the dishes...seriously. At that point in our relationship she noted that I was infringing on her responsibilities...so I stopped for a time. Then a kid would cry, a diaper would need to be changed, and the sink was filled with plates...so I would start again all over.
She chased me...LOL...and I don't think I am physically capable of a squeaky voice.
Overall this is something that will have to be addressed if we get some point of reconciling. My therapist actually noted that early in our individual sessions. She noted that my wife had the right to state I wasn't do them to her level of satisfaction, but that she should also do it with a little appreciation that at least I tried.
