My partner says he does 'his share' because he does the laundry and takes out the trash, but I still feel like I'm managing everything.
You two should sit down and split the chores 50/50 so it's fair for both of you.
LIFE-03 — THE HOUSEHOLD MANAGER
My partner says he does 'his share' because he does the laundry and takes out the trash, but I still feel like I'm managing everything.
That gap is a strong sign the imbalance isn't in task count, it's in who's doing the noticing and deciding.
For the tasks he 'owns,' does he notice on his own when they need doing, or does it happen because you mentioned it?
If it's the latter, he's got Execution but you still have Conception and Monitoring - which means you're not actually done managing them.
