My husband was always a true homeperson. He was rubbish at DIY, but when we both worked he did all the shopping, cooking and financial management.
I don`t know about the `get me` syndrome Padraig, but my husband was always the first to offer to make a drink or snack, and our family and friends would all vouch for the quality of his hospitality, and the meals he cooked for them.
Now he cannot juggle all the aspects of food preparation, and is resentful that I have `taken over` the kitchen.
Now he cannot drive and is resentful that I order our shopping online.
Now he cannot read a bank statement and is resentful that I have control over his money.
So much resentment, and all directed towards me. Who else can he direct it towards?
