We live a fairly ordinary life kids work mortgage. My H is a great guy, good father etc who works hard. However he is really ahrd to motivate. I dont ask much of him and take care of most everything, which I dont mind atall, but sometimes, jsut sometimes I would like a bit of initialive and motivation from him. I have tried most everything but it seems that I am the motivator in the house....i dont mind it most of the tim e but now and again I wish he had more get up and go......why cant he realise that work is not enough, and what can I do to encourage him without him getting in a huff about it. Beleive me I have tried everyting from asking in a casual way to sexual favours to shouting to not doing anything in the house for a week!!!! I do accept him for who he is and in everything else he is a fab husband, but it is exhausting being the sole person in the house with any motivation and we always end up arguing about it. I know he gets tired, but good grief!
