Woman refuses to compliment husband for doing the bare minimum around the house, leading to a heated conversation about household duties: ‘You’re not even grateful‘

Living with someone, especially when that someone is your romantic partner, means separating household duties equally (unless both parties have expressed an alternative agreement). When you're sharing a roof with someone, it's important to keep the house clean and orderly, but equally important to communicate who will be doing what tasks throughout any given week. You don't need to make a whole spreadsheet like a lunatic, but dividing and conquering the day-to-day tasks is what keeps a partnership healthy and nurtured.

The woman in this story is taken aback when her husband basically begs her for a compliment after doing a mundane household chore. Her husband never thanked her for all of the work she does for the house on a daily basis and found that her husband's compliment-fishing is out of character and out of line. When women aren't thanked for the things they do, don't expect them to thank you for doing what is asked of any cohabitating situation. Scroll to read.
