House Work I'm in the military, and I work at least 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. Sometimes more. My wife has a job where she works an average of 10-15 hours a week. How much of the house work should I realistically be doing? I know I need to do some of it, but we always argue about it. I'm getting really tired of being insulted and being called "lazy" over this, when shes the one who gets up to 12 hours of sleep on a daily basis. I'm lucky to get 7-8. She says I'm lazy and never do anything, but when I'm not working, shes here and we're spending time together. She gets mad at me for not doing as much as her, but she won't let me do simple things such as the laundy or vacuuming. So how can I help her if she won't let me?

First of all if your working that much and shes working that little you should not be being bothered about house work. Every now and then would be right but you are in the military and work almost everyday of the week. I think your wife needs to see how much you do and how little she does!
Hope I helped

ignore her dumb ass and let her do everything, ur a workin man, damn the women ur the man of the house son ]
Ahh, women -- what can be done about them, really? Haha, I'm kidding. Anyways, lately has she been doing most of the work around the house? My advice would be to split it as evenly as you possibly can or suggest that you each only clean up after yourselves. It seems as though she's playing the guilt card and calling you "lazy" so you are more likely to pick up the messes SHE may make. If she doesn't let you do the laundry or vacuuming, then she's probably like my mother and thinks that you don't do them the "proper way". Being male (and don't get me wrong, I'm sure some women think this way too) we think that there is no right way to do anything as long as we get it done. So next time she complains that you're not doing some of the work, as her calmly what she would *like* you to do. Hope this has helped =) ]
try cleaning up after yourself and ask her if she wants help dong something ]
We have all heard it before..Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus. Sometimes it is the little things that impress a women. If your wife is anything like me; she is very picky about the way things are done around the house. My quickest solution to your headache is to pay attention to small things that could be done and most importantly without her asking!!! Her not having to ask you is half the battle my friend!!
And as far as your wife goes; in her frustration with you she needs to replace the name calling with positive husband and wife talks about the problem and learn to tell you exactly what she expects..we need to learn that as women and not expect our men to read crystal balls!!
Take Care!

Wow. It seems your relationship is haveing a little problems. Everyone has their lazy, tell your wife how you feel, and tell her to maybe take a day off from cleaning, or walk up early the next morning and have the things she usually does done. ]
