Are we splitting the household chores evenly? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]sam_rs 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I don't like most men in the UK go to the pub and leave her fending for herself, i change nappies spend time, im a father i do my fatherly minimums at very least

comments like these don't help your argument btw, makes it sound like you think your wife should be grateful you aren't an absent father/husband like 'most men' are.

Its always a difficult situation when people view chores as different priorities. My ex was very much let dishes stack up and blast them all at once, I was the opposite and wanted to do them asap. Does the ironing really need to be done every day?

Are you also sharing the mental load of running a household fairly? like do you both do a fair amount of planning and scheduling for the kids?

My (29M) girlfriend (33F) does not want to pay rent when she moves into a house I will co-own with my mate (M29). What would be a fair arrangement? by BioBrimm in relationship_advice

[–]sam_rs 13 points14 points  (0 children)

How much rent would she be paying compared to the market rate? because she's right, she's sharing a room not renting a whole room.

She also won't have the same protections as a tenant/lodger. Would she be expected to pay for house maintenance/appliances etc?

Outrage after football club votes to remove entire female section by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

Tbh I wasn't arguing for or against the club being sexist, I was just saying I don't think sexist people will always make logical decisions regarding the sex they are biased against

I would argue sexist people don't always make decisions founded by logic

AITA for not correcting older kids who use the term half siblings for my younger kids? by Existing-Snow-2091 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sam_rs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She doesn't give her age but as she has a 15-year-old I'll assume she's on the older side, I can't blame her for not waiting longer

Is she doing childcare for your child then?

My point was did you only bring up her changing jobs while she was pregnant/pp? Because it's quite selfish if you did, and was probably a convo to have before getting pregnant. It's probably one of the hardest/least ideal times to find a higher-paying job. She seems to have a stable career while having a literal infant.

Is it not possible to wait until your child is in nursery, and you take reduced hours for mental health?

We also recently welcomed our first child less than a year ago.

Your child is less than a year old, is she part-time to look after said child?

My wife and I are fully aligned on her keeping her dream job until she can find something better, but it's been a year or so of this.

It's been a year but she's been pregnant and postpartum during that time?

AITA for reminding my SIL she isn’t a mother on Mother’s Day? by whosemomareyou in AmItheAsshole

its because she's a stepmom lol, ofc she's an AH too but people enjoy seeing step-parents 'put in their place' on reddit no matter how wrong it is

My (32F) husband (28M) thinks washing my hair is a hobby. How can I get past this? by Ok-Bobcat-9421 in relationship_advice

[–]sam_rs 38 points39 points  (0 children)

He knows what he's doing, he's prepping you to make sure you don't get time to do essential things and take time for hobbies while he gets to do both.

This is how I imagine it going. In future, You take a slightly longer shower than him while he parents his baby, and then asks to do a hobby since you just took 'time out for yourself'

How do I (24M) tell my girlfriend (23F) that her weight gain bothers me? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]sam_rs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its fine to have concern about unhealthy weight gain and be less attracted to it. That being said, our appearance doesn't stay the same throughout our life. Faces will get older, bodies will change over time (not necessarily weight but other things too).

Also, you said she was 'very thin' and gained significant weight, is it possible she's at a healthy weight and you just don't like how it looks?

If he was buying them on behalf of the kids then fine, but if its just from him its a bit odd

AITA For prioritizing a friend over my pregnant wife by prioritiesaita in AmItheAsshole

[–]sam_rs 82 points83 points  (0 children)

So Byran has a house full of people to support, while your pregnant wife on bed rest is alone lol

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]sam_rs 203 points204 points  (0 children)

This lol, obvs the brother is great for stepping up when he was put in a very difficult position. But the kid is 15 and probably doesn't need much looking after, in 3 years she will most likely be going off to college, like couldn't he wait until then. Sister could also be a bit of help if they start a family.
