You Desi Men and household chores

@Muzna

sometimes one needs a thread like this one to remind her how nice she has it…

Lucky you.

I was just going to start this same topic. My husband is very very VERY lazy when it comes to household work. I beg him, fight with him do whatever I can to ask him to do something. Lately, we’ve been arguing every day, and it becomes huge fight. I’ve been telling him he needs to do more around the house. I don’t ask him to cook or anything. Just simple things like putting his plate in sink after he eats, putting his glass in the kitchen after he drinks etc.

When someone is visiting us, I clean, scrub every lil corner of my apartment and he doesn’t do anything. I am so so sick of this. He is a great husband otherwise.

My FIL doesn’t do anything whatsoever but then my MIL doesn’t do much either because they have naukars. So now the kids are raised like this. They don’t do anything around the house at all.

We have fights on daily basis now over this issue. I just want some peace

I used to fight over these things first year of marriage, got fed up… started doing everything myself and life was peaceful, and I got better with the handyman work around the house too, I make my husband cook and he loves it so we kind of made peace … I even fixed the dishwasher myself … but I’m pregnant now, need him to do some things which I can’t do myself anymore.

I dont know whats up with desi wives. I hear that often from my wife too

“XXXXXXX, I dont know whats up with you. Aap barey barey kaam tu itneee jaldee ker daitey hain liken yee chota saa kaam (for example replace bulb ) 2-3 weeks sai keh rahi hoon”

why do you girls have to be so vocal about it. Buss kam keh deya na eik baar? ho jayee ga 3-4 weeks main jaldee kia hai?

Haan, tab tak aadhay andhaaray kamray mein baithay raho :pcg:
