Doesn't do cleaning because he hates it? WTF I hate cleaning too but it has to get done so my house doesn't become a microbiology lab.
Do men genuinely think we get randy at the prospect of scrubbing a toilet?

This! I hate cleaning and I don't even like cooking. But I suck it up and do it if I'm not paying someone to do it for me. Do men really think we thrive and love doing house chores? Most women don't enjoy.
[β]BountyxoFDS Newbie15 points16 points17 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
YES. I've heard it a lot, how they don't want to do it, implying that I do. I'm sure if they stopped to think for a moment they do realise we don't want to do it but they don't give a fuck.

Honestly. I dated a guy (who was 32) for a few months who hated cleaning and cooking or anything "domestic". He worked crazy hours at times so he would get a cleaner to come in and clean his place for him and he almost exclusively ordered take out (he only did groceries once or twice with me the whole time we dated). Then covid hit and the cleaner was no longer working and his house devolved in to a pig sty. It was disgusting. One day I brought this guy toilet bowl cleaner and other necessary cleaning products, and I loaded all of his dirty dishes into the dishwasher but didn't turn it on because he was sleeping. I just wanted him to wake up after a hard day and feel less stress from a clean apartment. This guy didn't turn on his dishwasher for over 2 weeks. And he never used the cleaner. I was already over the relationship after this and didn't think it would work. Went away for a week to visit family and he had the audacity to dump me over text with the reason "neither of us are strong enough (with chores and meal preparation) to provide the support we each need". He clearly was just annoyed that I wasn't taking on all the responsibility for chores at his place in addition to mine. This boy clearly wasn't looking for a partner, he was looking for a free maid to replace his. Never again will I go out of my way to do that kind of stuff for someone I'm dating, it only serves to set a precedent that it's now my job after I do it once.

Wait. He lost his job. But is too burned out so his wife has to get a second one?? And his own brother says heβs an extra mouth to feed lmao. Good for his brother for not pulling punches. And yes the OP in the post is an asshole and a super scrotatious scrote.

How could he type all that out and still not understand?

Did the commenters type out in super dum dum lingo to help him understand. Because it seems like he needs it.
[β][deleted] 60 points61 points62 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Yup, not that it helped. He just kept saying he is still so burned out after 6 months of watching movies and playing video games
[β]WildTendernessFDS Newbie32 points33 points34 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Honestly my brain would rot from the inside out if I did that all day for six months. He should be smart enough to know that all it takes is a little momentum to get back up to par, although apparently that is too great of an expectation π€¦πΌββοΈ

How do you get burned out from not doing anything?

"iM bUrnEd OuT, tAKe CaRe oF Me" what a useless man. Staying home, doing nothing for months while the wife takes care of money, house and kids. She would be doing better as a single mom by now.

[β]LevelTurbulentFDS Newbie40 points41 points42 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
He really thinks he's earned not having to give a fuck about keeping his children alive in any way. Right...
I hope she wises up and divorces him. His brother is right, he's completely useless, won't work, won't clean, won't deal with the children. She's already doing it all by herself, it would be easier for her if he was gone.

How can anyone sit at home, watch your wife do all that to support everyone, and still not feel compelled to help at all? That lady belongs on breakingmom
[β]acerrimaFDS Newbie34 points35 points36 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
"She's also homeschooling our kids"
42 hours work
homeschooling (usually around 30 hrs/week)
housekeeping ( let's say 10 hrs/week)
cooking (with 3 meals a day at least 7hrs)
= 89 hours
This poor lady is doing almost 90 hours while he's doing 0.
But he's the one with a burn out....

What a loser. Dump him in the trash. " Iβve been resting, catching up on movies or playing games. I hated my job, I donβt see why people are jumping all over me for wanting to take some time for myself. "
[β]tallwomenneedlovetooFDS Newbie19 points20 points21 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Itβs only ever men who still think like this after theyβve had kids. Women recognize that there are no more breaks or coasting on as little as possible to be selfish; itβs 100% on ALL THE TIME because there are small people depending on you for the best possible future.

[β]klausolasFDS Newbie15 points16 points17 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
He's not burnt out and he does understand. He just doesn't care. He'll sit on his butt as long as his wife will carry his load. And if she ever does wise up he'll make himself out to be the victim of her "unrealistic expectations" of him. Can't she see he's"fragile?" He's lazy and opportunistic.

I bet he plays video games all day.

The fact that he needs to ask.
[β]NovemberinthechairFDS Apprentice8 points9 points10 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Wow. What a selfish prick. He should listen to his bro. He keeps saying he's burned out, he's burned out...wimpy wimp. Your wife's going to burn out soon and decide to divorce you because you're useless and a burden.
[β]tallwomenneedlovetooFDS Newbie5 points6 points7 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
And Iβll bet you anything that he didnβt sock away shit for savings for his little mancation either. Just expected her to carry his stank ass while he starts fusing into the couch.
[β]Hedy__LamarrFDS Apprentice7 points8 points9 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
What does this man bring to the table? Fuck all.
She's better off divorcing him. Then she'd only have to feed and clean up after her kids. It's a lot less work than taking care of a man child.
[β]sweetpotatocupcakeFDS Newbie5 points6 points7 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
He's not burnt out. He is knowingly taking advantage of her which is awful. If there's one thing I am learning from FDS that's a hard pill to swallow is the phrase, "he knows/"if he wanted to he would".
[β]jargon_explosionFDS Newbie7 points8 points9 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
He updated his post. Imagine being so devoid of empathy for your partner that you need the internet to condemn you before you decide to take some responsibility and accountability.
Also, and this might be news to him, Netflix and video games do not help with burnout or depression. Go lift some weights. Work on creative hobbies that bring you joy. Do small, productive tasks (like tidying/cleaning) that give you a sense of accomplishment.
What helped me the most with my near burnout was switching from a job I hated to a job with a great culture and understanding of work-life balance, not sitting at home doing nothing with my life. I took a week off in between, that's it.

Laziness begets laziness.
I'd be disguated with myself if I couldn't get my shit together after a WEEK of a break.

Okay...go chill for an hour then go back to real life then? Wtf? Fine he's "burnt out" but honestly how much recovery time do you need?
If he didn't have a family he could chill his whole life away but his wife and kids are being negatively affected by his behaviour and he still wants to chill?
[β][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
When is she going to get with the brother?
[β]FDSxMuffinVSratFDS Apprentice0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I don't even believe this is real tbh. This has to be some kind of karma farming thing. It looks like he's providing all the facts about how he's a loser but not trying to actually garner sympathy about why he feels burnt out, which is what I would expect if someone were actually burnt out.
I feel like it's just some troll being bored on the internet. And if it's not, well fuck that's really sad that someone could lack so much self awareness.

While I wouldn't put it past a man to say any of this, I do wonder if it's his wife writing this from his standpoint to feel some validation.
But then, I really don't know... I mean my bil quit a job that let his family of 5 live comfortably and his girlfriend had to find a better paying job with benefits to even pay the rent. While he wasn't working, he still insisted she bring all three kids to his mom to babysit while he played video games and drank. Recently I was over there to drop off kids for her and she was taking the trash out and complained about how he doesn't help her at all and she's exhausted. He did eventually get a job after being unemployed by choice for months, but it's an on call position and he sits at home until someone calls him to do some work for an hour or two.
