Should I visit my family?

Well, I'm glad it made you laugh neha

But really, can DWs pls. stop acting like your DH is a baby and he wont be able to feed himself, or take plates etc. He'll do fine, and if needed he'll also find a tiffinwala etc. Gosh, what do you women think that DH are clueless idiots? :hide:

 

Great,the minute I say Dont think DH are clueless, MST posts this :hide:
He can operate all technology, but MST believes the ruse that he cannot operate an ancient dishwasher :rotfl (Let me go check if I know all the controls in my dishwasher :hide

 

You are feeling guilty because you are innocently comparing entirely different things that are close to you heart - you desire to be with your husband and your wish to visit you parents and relatives and see their happy faces.

Now the point is why are you comparing in the first place? Don't you think your love should help you overcome any such guilty feeling and that love can exist despite distance and despite being away from each other. I would say that you would realize how strong your love is until you face testing situations as this and that will help your relationship in the long run.

 

Ladies, it is not a nice thing to pamper your DH to such an extent. Loading dishwasher is one of the easiest things to do. And men should be able to do that. Tomorrow you girls might not have that much timedue to career/kids etc, so you wont be able to devote as much time to you DH. So pampering him in this manner is only going to increase his expectations from you:hide: And at that time if you aren't able to meet the demands, issues might arise.

Let them do the basics in the house, for eg: They could learn atleast to make omlettes, dal, potato sabzi etc ; cleaning up after themselves, vaccuming etc. So when the need arises they can help around the house.

This is something that I truly believe in. Everyone should be able to look after themselves:coffee

P.S;- I did not want to offend anyone but could not resist this

You know what? Women (including my wife) even if they show apparent irritation about their hubbies not knowing even basic household chores, somehow enjoy that fact and come to like their hubbies that way. In fact, I would say they are the ones that are spoiling us, otherwise enthusiastic and enterprising hubbies willing to do and learn I think, they feel like it is their domain and don't want others to encroach.

Disclaimer: Of course I am talking about specific woman who are not burdened to take care of all household works may be because they have maids (and husbands) to help them otherwise.

 

Yes, aren't you the one who was applying for jobs online for him? :rotfl
