I am 24, been with my hubby for about 3 years. However, one thing is wrong- he thinks all women should be a perfect mother, like his apparently was. She is a great lady, has had a career thruout having children (shes an accountant). She also cooks all the family meals (she is an amazing from scratch cook), cleans her house to a shine every day, does everybodys laundry, remembers all birthdays, anniversaries, and to send out get well soon cards to people who are sick. She also works 8-10 hours a day, and works out at the gym every other day. Her house is immaculate, her cooking amazing, and she is the nicest lady ever.
The issue is- my boyfriend grew up with this as a role model, and now we fight a lot about how I don't cook every night, clean every day, remember to send cards, etc. We have a 4 yo son, and I am 4 mos preg. Yes, our house is CLEAN, but toys all over. Laundry is done, but not folded right away. How do I get him to see that I'm not as together as his mom?!
