Repeatedly doing house chores can be tedious, especially for women who are working full time but still don’t get any help from the other people who live there.

This woman kept complaining about his husband not helping her and suggested that they divide the tasks equally among them, since they both have jobs.

He refused and said that he deserved to relax after a long day of work.

Read the full story below.

AITA for getting frustrated with my husband for refusing to do chores?

I have been married to my husband for seven years.

I work full-time, and while I love my job, it can be exhausting.

I take pride in keeping our home clean and organized, but lately, I’ve been feeling overwhelmed with all the chores.

This woman suggested dividing the tasks among them.

I’ve brought up the issue multiple times, explaining how tired I get and asking him to help out more.

I suggested we create a chore chart or divide tasks, but he usually shrugs it off.

He says he doesn’t see the big deal, and that he thinks I like doing things my way.

I don’t think he realizes how much stress it adds to my day when I come home to a messy house.

When she came home to a messy place, she completely lost it.

Last week, I came home after a long day, and the place was a disaster.

I snapped, and told him that I can’t handle it alone anymore.

He got defensive, saying he works hard, too, and deserves some downtime.

Now, she’s wondering if she overreacted.

I understand that he works, but so do I.

And I feel like I’m shouldering most of the household responsibilities.

Now, I’m left wondering if I overreacted and whether I’m being unreasonable for wanting him to pitch in.

AITA?
