I don't clean and cook for my friend. I do it for myself, even if I lived alone, I would still clean, wash and cook. I don't see a huge difference, as long as he doesn't throw his dirty clothes on the ground and scatter them. He did it in the beginning, then I explained to him that I was not his mother to walk after him and he got to know the laundry basket, started packing his dishes and throwing away his packages. I don't oblige him to help, but I annoy him if he interferes. Otherwise, housework does not weigh on me, it is a part of life that does not take much time a day. Why bother for 2-3 hours of work on vacation? It's like sitting down and thinking about how much energy I'm going to waste while taking a bath ... it's a must and it's not a pain to die. Just as I take care of my body without weighing it down, I do the same with my home. And my home is my castle, I want to feel good in every room, and for this purpose it is desirable not to step on 3 cm of dust. It will be harder with children now, but I guess they will be much nicer to me than my friend and I won't be very angry with them. However, they will be small, have to play and it is normal to get dirty. Once people live in a property, it is normal for it not to be sterile and not perfect all the time. Don't get too obsessed. It should be clean, but every apartment is sometimes not in a brilliant way, this is normal, it happens. Try not to think that you are doing the housework for your friend, you would do it anyway. You can talk to him, get involved with 2-3 things to make it easier for you. However, they will be small, have to play and it is normal to get dirty.

How am I doing ? Well very easy. From the very beginning of our cohabitation, I told my husband (then we were just boyfriends) that I was not the maid at home. We usually shop together. Cleaning - we have hired a woman who comes once a week / I hate cleaning and he doesn't have time /. Cooking - my mother cooks in the winter, the rest of the time I cook something quickly or more often I buy cooked food. We have been driving like this for 25 years. In the beginning there was no money for a cleaner and he cleaned, I rarely, only in the role of assistant. But I was cooking. If you do not set clear rules from now on, you will be a servant for the rest of your life. Answer the question, do you want such a life for you? I would never live with a man who has no basic respect for me and leaves me to rot at home from work.
