You both work, get up at six in the morning and return home late at night. But for some reason, all the household responsibilities still lie with the wife. In such circumstances, it would be perfectly fair to share household chores between two. Try with some trickery to convince your husband to help you around the house.
Instructions
Step 1
Don't expect the man to take your hints. If you put the vacuum cleaner in the middle of the corridor, then the faithful will stumble over it, swear and continue to move towards the sofa. Always speak in plain text.
Step 2
Never do a man's work for him, even if you yourself know very well how to handle a hammer and a drill. Do not teach your husband that if he will delay the task long enough, then you will do everything for him. You can invite a professional, and then tell your husband how much the repaired crane cost you, which he promised to do a month ago.
Step 3
Give your man the right motivation. He needs to understand why he is doing this or that work. For example, send him to the store, explaining that you wanted to cook his favorite dinner in the evening.
Step 4
Don't ask for everything at once. When it comes to household chores, the male brain cannot multitask. If you blurt out several cases to him at once, then, most likely, he will immediately remember that he urgently needs to go to work.
Step 5
Turn on your sense of humor. Of course, when you remind him for the fifth time to take out the trash, it’s hard to hold back and not yell. But try not to get nervous and turn it into a joke. For example, tell them that neighbors have already complained about the smell.
Step 6
Try to be flexible. If your husband hates washing floors, then you don't need to force him. Let him do what he likes best.
Step 7
Never criticize your husband for doing something wrong. And you should not give valuable instructions in an orderly tone. You are still a wife, not a sergeant. A man will always respond to a request, but hardly an order.
