Men, how often do ask your SO to do something...

After they've gotten comfortable...

Seriously, why oh why do women wait until you've got all comfortable and prepared to sit down to do something mindless before they ask you to get up and do something?

    Not that often. But she does seem to think that just as I am drifting off to sleep is the perfect opportunity to discuss an issue, instead of when we were both wide awake. :grumble:

    I never ask SO to do anything. He's kind of an *kitten*. So I just do it myself.

    My wife has learned she can ask me to do something but can not tell me when to do it or how to do it. I will do it on my schedule....when I get up

    We kind of make a joke out of it, now.


    Oh, and since Dani isn't here.....




    Just break up.

    I just pretend to use the force to get something until my boyfriend gets up and gets it for me. :)

    She usually waits to ask when she knows I'm on the computer. I just get up and deal with it...

    I asked my husband to get stuff all the time. It doesn't matter what he's doing he goes and gets it or does it. No worries here.

    Does your husband have a brother/friend with the same trait around my age? :huh: :bigsmile:

    Before you think about it like that, think about this - how many things do you never find yourself doing because your SO takes care of it? Like, for example, doing the dishes, washing the clothes, etc? I know I am the official dishwasher in my house. I've waited for the dish fairy to come and do them for me (aka my boyfriend) but it rarely happens haha. At the same time, he always changes my oil and does anything like that so it's somewhat even :-) Although, he definitely asks for more "favors," but that's kinda my fault because I can be stubborn and not ask for help.
