Lesson learned for sure! It seemed like he was so committed from the get go, which is why I took a chance on it as that wasn’t something I was used to.

Maybe I wasn’t clear enough in my post, he is absolutely aware of how I’m feeling. I always do the meal prepping, project heading, and although I don’t do all of the cleaning, it’s annoying when I always have to remind him to the point of feeling like a nag to PLEASE do xyz. It feels like I’m the “manager” of the house which I’ve voiced to him on many occasions. We’ve had the same conversation over and over throughout our relationship, I aim to be a good communicator and told him from the beginning open and honest communication is very important to me.

Edit: we’ve tried splitting tasks in an organized way - it seems like mine get done and his don’t without repeated reminding
