That tactic tends to breed resentment (from both sides) when one person starts to get better at noticing problems. You might get lucky and stay balanced, but you'll probably have to actually talk about that some day.

That's fair, and I was oversimplifying a bit; there are definitely things that are specific to her or me, that we've either talked about, or settled into a natural division of labour.

Dishes? Yeah that's both of us. Often she ends up loading the dishwasher, I end up emptying it, but not always. Litter box? That's a me problem, she can't handle the smell. Weeding the garden? That's a her problem, I couldn't give a fuck

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
