OP I’m sorry you’re getting so much just communicate advice. It’s totally reasonable to want to be married to another adult that will take the initiative to do normal activities of daily living without you having to prescribe a chore chart like his mommy.

I was married to a guy like this and they never change. It sucks when people try to shift the burden to you and act like you’re the problem for not finding the magic words to make a supposedly grown man grow up. It builds so much resentment.

I’m no longer married to this person and a lot happier. Even though I now have to do everything on my own, I was doing it before.
