My dad called me yesterday and asked me to spend time with him this weekend. He mentioned we haven't spend much time together recently and asked if I wanted to go hunting (he has no hobby besides this) . I said sure and he said he'd pick me up tomorrow at 8am.<br><br>I was in a situation where my advice was taken and we were able to save a lot of money on my car's repair.<br><br>26M here (not from those 2 other couples, and real posts). And after reading those 2 other posts I felt like we men should tell our side of the story too. Being home 24/7 and looking at my gf's face everyday made me curious how she really felt. So today I did everything but my work and instead I did everything around the house. Cooking, cleaning, washing and all that jazz. I also made sure to do it when she was also home (she works from home) so she can witness all I do.<br>I also made a list of the things I do everyday, and I'm gonna put that at the end<br><br>What happened though, is that I don't feel tired or anything like those 2 other guys. In fact, I feel better and more relaxed and my gf was really grateful, kissed me and hugged me and we had sex (she wanted to but I was too busy until I wasn't) and she even helped me clean and cook<br><br>What I think is that I don't have a full time job outside of home + my work, and I don't have kids. The other guy takes care of 2 kids, one of which is 2yo and the other one is 4mo. And the other guy's wife is pregnant so her capabilities are limited and probably needs extra help.<br>Both these guys seem to also have no help from their partners as they do everything but I believe there may be more to the story we don't know<br><br>Also I don't spend time at the gym, drinking or any other things, I exercise at home usually, and I spend all my free time with my gf and I do it happily.<br>Oh and I forgot to mention that my gf helps me with some of the stuff I do (like cooking sometimes, and mopping but not vacuuming and we both do laundry)<br><br>Anyway, here's my list:<br><br>Clean the whole kitchen (fridge, stove, microwave, cupboards, sink, trash and all that takes almost an hour, as we have a big kitchen)<br>Clean my gf's room (make her bed, vacuum, mop, pick up her clothes etc)<br>Clean our shared living room (pic up stuff, mop, vacuum, sometimes dust if it's needed, clean bathroom sink and toilet, empty trash)<br>Cook 3 meals (usually leftovers for lunch and we either dine out or order dinner)<br>Do all the laundry (I don't dry but I do all the washing)<br>Wash the car (at least once a week)<br>Buy groceries (sometimes my gf comes too, we usually decide and agree together)<br>Clean the car sometimes (inside) we take it to a guy to clean 2-3 times a month and sometimes I do it.<br>Cut my GF's nails (she doesn't like to pay someone for it and I'm ok with it)<br>Take her to places (she doesn't like to drive but will if she has to)<br>And other random stuff I do<br><br>I want to mention that I'm 100% ok with doing all that and never complained and I have no problem doing it. I do it happily and my gf thanks me a lot, both with words and actions.<br><br>Edit: I thought I'd add 2 photos with the list written ( but in greek) and compilation of photos I took, but the mods removed it because of personal info (my hand) ?. <br><br>Anyway, I wrote it in Greek and I have a photo with the stuff written in a piece of paper you can search my comments for it
