Wow, a 3 post fail, triple score of what reads like a typical scammer email.

Is this what y'all are gettin' in your inboxes? No wonder it's hard and getting harder to make a connection, on any site.

I'm gabberflasted.

Well ok. Let me clarify then, I'm living single now, have been since Aug 18th and on December 5 I will be divorced. That's what I was saying, how I'm learning to be "single" again, and how women make it look easy...I apologize for the confusion....

Ok, ok...I did know to share chores with the "SO", now I'm doing it all...if I were to get back with someone I wouldn't know where to start...that seems like a long time away for me anyway...whoa

My new honey fell into a pattern pretty smoothly. Sometimes I cook, sometimes she she does, sometimes we cook together. She cleans, I make dirty! I work she plays or goes with me. We both play together alot. It really is about a good a relationship as possible. We go out a lot and have a very active social life. All my friends love her.

Ok..hhhahha.. why on earth.. would you think it wouldn't matter to me...
.. of course it matters.... I put a lot of time energy and thought into that...
. there's no way you would be faking..lmao...

.. and I keep hearing this word chores... passed around....lol.. what is the meaning of this word... chores...
is it something I used to watch my mother do around the house... you know cooking cleaning laundry.... keeping the house organized....
well my father looked after the maintenance.. the vehicles.... the turning of the screws so to speak.....

.. I'm all for sharing household duties..
.. I always have, I don't mind doing dishes and vacuuming... to be honest I don't mind household duties I'm quite ..good at it..... but in my mind.... the upkeep of the house....... the day to day running of the house... that's the woman's job.... you can help me with yard work all you want..... but overall I view that as my responsibility... something needs fixing you call me...
. I need a sandwich I call you....lol.. but I shouldn't have to call you.... because you should already have it ready.... why... because it is lunchtime... and you have been busy dealing with the house and laundry and such... and I have being cutting the grass... weeding the flower beds... and fixing the fence.... we are a team..

Okay, put the champagne and bunting away, I'm not in a relationship, lol.
But there's this thing that keeps bugging me. Let's say you'd find a partner again and - eventually - move in together. Most have been single for some time, so we've learnt to do things that our exes used to do.

So how do you deal with the new situation when it comes to chores? Would you automatically start doing the so called 'men things' like fixing a fence, oil a squeaky door, fix a blocked drain, car maintenance of your woman, put out the garbage etc. etc. etc.
Or would you expect her to keep doing these things herself, unless she asks for your help?
And vice versa of course.
As a woman, would you expect your new man to start doing these things?
And as a man, would you expect your woman to do the so called 'woman things', meaning i.e. you'd never cook anymore, help cleaning etc.

Sometimes it's just weird how we can have these routines in our head --> The other day I had a blocked drain. And I found myself wishing I had a man so he could fix it. Yes I know, horrible, pathetic, cos I can easily do that myself. It doesn't require strength, it's just a gross and smelly job.

Anyways, how do you divide all these chores that we usually automatically did in the past with our first partner, and learnt to deal with ourselves because we were single.
Do you just wait and see how it goes? Do you discuss it? If so, when?


Funny you say that, because even though I've been alone a lot, owned my own home and did all kind of restoration work to it myself, I have NEVER cut the grass. Something in my head says it is a "man thing" and I just refuse to do it. It could also have something to do with the fact that I hate cutting grass, hahaa.

If you share the duties initially, you will soon work how you fit together.....it all falls into place....ohh and definitely discuss things.....communication is vital.....
