My husband is a wonderful guy. Just wondering how many men clean up the house? My husband washes the dishes if I cook, he vacums, does the laundry when I am at work, and keeps the yard up. I feel so guilty sometimes but he insists. He also works at least 5 12hr days in the steel mills. I think I have it made!
I look back at my father my brother, and family members all around to my knowledge i do not know a one of them that help out in the house. Is he normal or do I have it Made? I Love him so much!!

YOU HAVE IT MADE!
My husband "works" for about 4 hours a week on ebay (which is wonderful that he's able to make a living that way, granted).
He spends the rest of the time goofing off. In our 5 years of marriage, he has never washed a dish, cooked, vacuumed, done laundry, paid the bills, done yard work..... anything. Not even the day after I gave birth to either of our children. He has never lifted a finger around the house, and I am very used to it. I envy you.

My husband helps out when I get overwhelmed. I really try to have things done so he doesn't feel the need to. I agree with men today doing more than our fathers did. My husband has changed as many diapers as I have and I don't think my father ever changed the first one! I also take care of the yard and I never remember my mother doing that. It's great how things have changed. I stay at home, he works, we have four kids so life can get hectic. I feel very lucky to have a husband that will roll up his sleeves and dig in when needed.

My personal opinion.. when a girls works full time just like the guys.. then all household chores should be equally divided between the two. Personally, I think it is really romantic to cook in the kitchen with a spouse. I have no doubt that your relationship is much better than anyone else's just because of this. If I was married.. I would do the same. So, to answer your question.. for your husband and me.. it is normal.. for others it may not be.. don't worry about it.. just embrace it. :)

My husband is a wonderful guy too, but raised very, very old fashioned. He will do the dishes (put them in the dishwasher), occassionally does laundry, occassionally folds clothes.
I am very much a traditionalist - to a point. I was raised - to a point - to wait on my husband.
My husband is a great father to the kids, a hard worker, he has gone to work when he has been sick as well as gone to work when I know he needs more sleep.
I tease him and tell him that he is very spoiled and he say that he knows it. I love him and wouldn't trade him.

Mine comes home from work plops on the couch and doesn't do a thing. Of course he works 50+ hrs a week and I stay at home all day making sure his home is clean and smelling good for him when he comes come. I even have a hot dinner and a tall glass of sweet iced tea on the dinner table. He has play time with the kids then family time then I send the kids to bed and we have partner time together(no not sex we talk to each other and I love it). I know the Clever's and I LOVE IT

My husband helps out too. It took a many years before he clued into how important it was for both partners to help with housework.
He really stepped up after I began having health issues, about 11 years ago.
Sounds like you have a great husband. Whenever you start feeling guilty, turn those negatives into positives by telling your husband just how great he is!

My wife and I share a lot of the chores but I tend to do the cleaning that requires scrubbing. She does all the laundry... I hate laundry... I do dishes, toilets, yard work, mopping. We work together... My wife keeps us on track financially and builds our life and future... My job is to work and treat her like a lady... I have found that the more I put her first, the more she puts me first. There it is, a happy marriage is when both spouses think that they are the "lucky" one. Good men are out there.... I like to think that I am one and it sounds like you have found one too. Just always remember to let him know that you know it.

My wife hasn't done the dishes in years, despite that I'm working and going to school full time compared to her part time job. I also do the majority of the cleaning. She sometimes does laundry, and cooks. That's it.

identity take that deal. So he works 8 hours an afternoon. Does a million/2 with the care of youngsters. You do the different a million/2 with the babies - and then use those 8hours an afternoon to safeguard the living house. candy.
