Thanks so much for your replies people. It really has given me food for thought.
This may seem kinda petty but there are minor grievances that have ,well, built up over the years.
These include:
-him not putting the toothpaste cap back on
-eating like a ravenous animal, never slowly
-when he makes our bed, he never does hospital corners
-he only vacuums the house once a fortnight
-he often forgets to put the toilet seat back down
-he doesn’t wash his hands before putting clothes on the line
-he doesn’t clean out the birdcage very often
-he sometimes burps after drinking a can of coke
-he used to call me “honey” but never does anymore
Re my mother
I think she prides herself on doing quite well by marrying a schoolteacher(my father). Therefore had expectations and hopes that I would marry someone of similar or higher status.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not so status conscious as her, but well, part of me fantasises about living a more luxurious life. Oh god, that sounds so shallow, I know.
thanks again everyone
