A good husband/boyfriend would....

hold my hair back when i puke.

 

Now that's true love!

 

learn to fold the laundry right. ugh. and he thinks hes 'helping'

i have to go back through and refold everything. he was raised in a patriarchal family where the women did the work, so no one ever taught him about laundry. sheesh. they should cover that in school.

 

aw, hey, coming from the "men do no housework" background, you shouldn't get pissy he's making an effort.

 

eh, i was just talking about how i had to do the laundry to my boyfriend one day and he told me that he doesn't do his own laundry...that same day he asked his mom to show him how to run the washer and dryer.

i wonder if he knows how to fold...probably not.

 

You are so right! There are lots of things that should be covered in school .. LOL ... we have people who can do differential calculus but don't know how to raise children ... ehhh sorry, that's a topic for another post.

Back to your laundry .. do you do the washing and he folds? Or how is this working? If he just can't do the folding right, you could have him do the washing and you fold. Or just have him fold his own stuff. Something like that.

 

He should be honest, slow to anger. Affectionate. Tell you how he feels. Be a good listener. Be very communicative and giving in bed. Want a good amount of sex.

 

You're probably right. That just means we have to show them about stuff like that. And stick to your guns. Don't let them get away with doing it crappy just so we'll let them off the hook.

This goes the other way too. If we're gonna expect men to do their share of housework, then we can't act like sissies if there's a spider in the room or something. We have to do our share of "man's work", too.

 

theres a "proper" way to fold clothes?

 

sounds very familiar. Somebody I know would have the same response to this question.

 

teehee.

 

Ah well im glad to have the same view as you guys

 

do everything i dread doing

 

like dishes and laundry?

 

that and being on top >_>


....

:hat:

 

hehe, whats wrong with that.

 

-Have a kind heart.
-Never abuse his partner (physically, emotionally, sexually, etc.).
-Never try to change his partner's appearance, interests, goals, or dreams (why are they with them then, anyway?)
-Never be a controlling asshole.

 

oops

 

Next you're going to say you throw babies against walls.

 

nah, that would be mean.
