True Confessions - Don't Judge
Replies

I have a hard time asking people for help when I want it (and even when I need it). Then later feel angry/hurt/disappointed when no one helped me or offered to help me. (Example: I'm working on painting the trim and doors in a house we recently moved into....my husband, brother, and 2 children just walk around / over me and never help or offer to help.)4

I confess I just signed my first born up for drivers ed, and I sobbed like a baby for 35 minutes. . .3

Sounds a little passive aggressive to me but who am I to judge. I'm nobody.2 -

Ask for what you want, men can't take hints. Subtle hints don't work, strong hints don't work, obvious hints don't work. In fact, don't even ask, just TELL him what you want.

Yeah, but if her husband is like mine, you will tell him what you want and then get to hear him b**ch about doing it so sometimes it's better just to do it yourself unless you're looking to hear the whining.5 -

men appreciate this. We hate mysteries and generally aren't as observant as women with that kind of stuff. Personally, if someone I care about is working around me, I can't just sit on my rear and not help, not in my nature.5 -

lol, no but in all honesty, even if they whine and complain, too bad. Get it done dude. I'll take care of you later. It's better then ME whining and complaining that I get no help when I haven't even asked for any. Of course I should NOT have to ask but whatever works. Oh and wear earplugs block his whineyass out.

So, sometimes when I don't feel like a thorough cleaning, I'll pull a chair a little out of place where the vacuum plugs in. When she sees the chair out of place (and moves it back) she assumes I vacuumed.
But she doesn't notice the lack of vacuum tracks?
I still vacuum, just not as thoroughly as she does. I make sure I get right in front of the couch and places she will see, but I don't go in the weight room or on the other side of the pool table.

The way I think about it is...I don't want anyone to do anything for me that they don't want to do so if I have to ask and hear you fuss I'd rather just do it myself. That's just me though. I want someone to do something for me because they want to, not because they feel like they have to.2 -

I feel this way to a certain degree but if there is something to be done in OUR house, where we BOTH live, IDGAF if you want to or not. You're not sitting and watching TV while I throw up drywall, cut grass or paint walls. That's NOT happening. But that's just me.3 -

Not just you. No way, no how, aint gonna happen.
To me, it depends on who's idea it was to do what it is that's being done. If I decided one day to rebuild the engine in my car, I wouldn't expect you to come out and help or demand that you do instead of sitting on the couch watching Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reruns. Using the painting as an example, if the paint color was fine with no issues and you got the wild hair to change it, I might help or I might not but don't demand that I help with a project that you took upon yourself to take on because "you" felt like it needed to be done. Of course, that's outside of regular maintenance issues, cutting grass and the like, things that just have to be done.3 -

To me, it depends on who's idea it was to do what it is that's being done. If I decided one day to rebuild the engine in my car, I wouldn't expect you to come out and help or demand that you do instead of sitting on the couch watching Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reruns. Using the painting as an example, if the paint color was fine with no issues and you got the wild hair to change it, I might help or I might not but don't demand that I help with a project that you took upon yourself to take on because "you" felt like it needed to be done. Of course, that's outside of regular maintenance issues, cutting grass and the like, things that just have to be done.
If I'd see you out there building an engine I'd offer to help in anyway I can. Even if it's just passing you a tool, EVEN if I didn't want to.
I think we hi-jacked this thread enough though. Sorry gang, carry on with your confessions.0 -
I have a hard time asking people for help when I want it (and even when I need it). Then later feel angry/hurt/disappointed when no one helped me or offered to help me. (Example: I'm working on painting the trim and doors in a house we recently moved into....my husband, brother, and 2 children just walk around / over me and never help or offer to help.)
Ask for what you want, men can't take hints. Subtle hints don't work, strong hints don't work, obvious hints don't work. In fact, don't even ask, just TELL him what you want.
Yeah, but if her husband is like mine, you will tell him what you want and then get to hear him b**ch about doing it so sometimes it's better just to do it yourself unless you're looking to hear the whining.
Punch him in the throat lol
I like you're way of thinking. LOL
lol, no but in all honesty, even if they whine and complain, too bad. Get it done dude. I'll take care of you later. It's better then ME whining and complaining that I get no help when I haven't even asked for any. Of course I should NOT have to ask but whatever works. Oh and wear earplugs block his whineyass out.
LOL, you'd be like living with my Mother. What if he doesn't feel that what you want to get done needs to be done or done in the time frame that you think it should be?
It doesn't matter what he feels (in this circumstance of course). What matters is what I want done PERIOD.Tomk652015 wrote: »I have a hard time asking people for help when I want it (and even when I need it).

hahahahaha....silly..your assuming your opinion matters....thats cute.
EXACTLY!
The way I think about it is...I don't want anyone to do anything for me that they don't want to do so if I have to ask and hear you fuss I'd rather just do it myself. That's just me though. I want someone to do something for me because they want to, not because they feel like they have to.
I feel this way to a certain degree but if there is something to be done in OUR house, where we BOTH live, IDGAF if you want to or not. You're not sitting and watching TV while I throw up drywall, cut grass or paint walls. That's NOT happening. But that's just me.
Not just you. No way, no how, aint gonna happen.
