    I would just do the dishes. Like yes, he's meant to be your sexy houseboy, but sometimes even sexy houseboys get busy at school or have a headache and neglect things. If you feel it is generally a problem, then you might need to have a talk with him about how you don't feel there is a equal division of labour. If it is just an occasional thing, I wouldn't make an issue.
    Good point.. I didn't think about this topic like that. I second that!!

    Thanks for giving a damn, folks. The dishes are still there. We spent the entire evening having a fight about something completely different, so the dishes never even came up. I HAVE asked him directly and politely to do them tonight, while I'm at work. If they are not done when I get back, all bets are off.

    Well, yes, you're very reasonable. On the other hand, the division of labor was never supposed to be equal. He is, literally, supposed to do it all. I DO help out, quite a bit. Like I said, I work at home. He's at school all day. He's a very dedicated student, and works hard. I could quite simply do all the housework for him while he's gone, since I'm here anyway. Then I would be paying all the bills AND doing all the housework. It's doable. But just being doable doesn't make it fair.

    Dang. No idea I had so many options. But how can I choose just one of you? I'll have to make a million dollars so I can afford to make you ALL my sexy live-in housekeepers. Now I know how TOO feels.

    I really meant the total division of labour in your relationship, not just the housework. But I mean okay - they're your dishes, your house and your boyfriend. Obviously whatever you think will be best is what you'll do.

    Sure. That's true. And obviously I will do whatever I think best. Is it still OK to vent and/or seek input on here, though?

    My husband could have written this rant. Ugh, I hate the dishes. He leaves at 6am, gets home around 8pm and then does them. I despise doing them (even just putting em in the dishwasher!)

    I don't need school paid for, but we could figure out a whole, "you have sex with me, I do your housework relationship." It could work.
    I'll let you think about it

    Well, I can honestly say I've never heard someone that ENJOYS doing the dishes.

    In all seriousness...I LOVE handwashing dishes. I'm not into the whole dishwasher thing except that it saves time.
    Gloves, no panties dishes and wine. mmmm

    I love handwashing dishes too, and I have a dishwasher which I never use. I don't like drying though...I just let them air dry on a towel on the counter.

    I find it therapeutic somehow.

    Grace: can we have an update please? What has happened? Which one of us gets to be your dish bitch?

    we have a deal tho - I clean the litterbox and fishtank (which is hell for him) and he does dishes (which is hell for me)

    Funny thing is - when I get around to doing dishes in a rare moon he praises me like a doggy "OMG what happened?! You did the dishes? Did I just see a pig fly? Im so proud of you!" lol. bois r funnie.

    I am cleaning out the guest room. Abjaer, you just got yourself a sugarmama.

    P.S. Yes, the dishes are done. And by the way, I like washing dishes, too, when I'm in the right mood. When I get tired or bored doing stuff here in the office, I sometimes take a dish-washing break. Suds and warm water are soothing. Like I said earlier I COULD just do all the housework myself. It wouldn't kill me, but it just doesn't seem right. I'm just not sure where to draw the line sometimes. It's hard to enforce a "fair division of labor" when I'm not totally sure myself what is fair.

    Can I bring my dog? I have 2, but if I can just have one that's ok. E can have the other. We'd have to figure it all out though cause we own a house together. BUt honestly, who could resist moving in with you for fun times?

    How about he work more then one day a week? I understand that school is really tough but people do it all the time. Even if hes not making as much as you, working 3 or 4 night a week might take some of the money stress off u. and you guys can share household chores more equally.
    just my $.02

    I don't think there was money stress. She said they live comfortably, it was just about him not doing the dishes when that's one of his designated chores. If making more money meant my house would be clean all the time, I'd probably be at work right now.

    Grace, I agree with you though. The only things I ask my husband to do are take out the trash and we take turns doing the dishes. I got so tired of looking at a full trashcan and a sink of dishes the other night that I just did it myself.
