He should volunteer to do all the chores and give her more time to spend with her boyfriend.

Dear Carolyn: When my girlfriend "Claire" and I moved in together, we split the chores down the middle. It seemed fair to me at the time, but — despite rejigs to the list — Claire always seems to feel shortchanged. She says it isn't fair that she has chores she hates (laundry) while I do stuff (cooking) I enjoy.

I'm the oldest of six siblings, and I don't really hate any basic domestic tasks. Even cleaning toilets isn't that bad: two people, a lot less horrifying than eight.

Claire has now tried to ban me from listening to music while I clean and gets frustrated if I don't clean up to the schedule she has in her head. For example, I vacuum once a week on Friday, unless something gets spilled or someone is coming over. Once, I put it off for a couple of days because I was sick as a dog, and now she won't let it go and harps on about it if I don't start cleaning the minute I get in the door.

At this point I feel like she's a client more than a girlfriend, and I'd break up with any client who seemed this impossible to please.

However, before this we got on really well, and this is the first time I've lived with a significant other — after growing up in an eight-person house I appreciated my freedom — so maybe I'm being unreasonable? Maybe I should pretend to hate dusting? Or plant things in the garden since I really do hate gardening. (Bugs! Worms! Stuff under your nails.)

It's as plain as a punch in the face she just wants him to suffer and is addicted to playing the victim. The blue pill must be a crazy strong anesthetic.

plantation conditioning is not easy to break free for some.

FWIW, I was already going my own way after my divorce was final, I had no idea what mgtow was or that it even existed.

I had a couple of short relationships while I was separated, one was very enjoyable but since that ended, I'm not interested in a relationship, the word I'm using to describe my thoughts about current society, civilization and women is "indifference". My goal is to minimize my interactions with everything and everyone not part of my plans for going my own way, my current and future life.
