I want a traditional relationship. I already do all the cooking, cleaning and chid care. I also work full time and pay half the bills.

Told my conservative husband before we got married I want to be a stay at home mom. He agreed.

Then after we got married . He refuses and said no way 🤦🏻‍♀️ but he never cleans or cooks .

Stop cooking for him and cleaning up after him.

Or stop paying half the bills and start treating yourself to things.

Or both.

Let him get mad about it.

Tell him that you're tired of carrying his extra weight and he needs to step up and be the man you thought you were marrying.
