How to get a man to do the housework |
1) In a respectful, loving way ask for what you want. Make a clear, specific request about exactly what you want or need.
2) Avoid criticisms and judgments such as, "You never do any housework! You're lazy!" They'll cause a man to feel either ashamed or angered, and neither result will help your cause.
3) Present the issue as a problem for which you need help. But, remember: he is not the problem: getting the housework done is the problem.
4) Even though you've made a request, leave room for new ideas and a full, honest conversation about housework and related issues.
5) Make it personal, e.g. "Honey, it would mean a lot to me if you would clean up the dishes on the nights I cook. Would you be willing to take that on?"
6) Be friendly, encouraging and affectionate; engage the heart more than the head.
7) Don't call a special meeting to discuss housework; in fact, you're better off keeping the whole conversation low-key.
8) Don't belittle or criticise your man for his failings. Build on all the great things he does, rather than criticising all he doesn't do.
