My dad’s like that with Ammi- when Ammi’s not feeling well or is tired, which has been going on for the past year or so, Abbu will cook roti for her, make sure we all eat includes coming to everyone’s door with the bailna in hand, we’re spoiled load dishwasher, laundry and be the house massi on weekends. I love their relationship mA =)
On the other hand, I think its very normal for guys AND girls to behave differently around friends vs family, no? I know I do it!
