Are there any men in this world that clean a house, make dinner and drive kids around?

    My husband does most of those - we don't have kids but he'll drive 3 hours to pick me up from visiting my elderly dad. Does that count?
    Oh, but he's taken :)

    they are out there - l didn't marry one - but l've got some male relatives that are incredible at taking a very active role with their children's lives and the household chores while still working outside the home, makes me jealous sometimes :)

    Why would I do that when I've got a wife to do that for me? :drinker: :bigsmile: :laugh:

    My guy does it! He's amazing. We don't have kids though. The only thing I can complain about is the amount of time the television is on, the amount of sport that is watched and the fact that he doesn't drink (not even a glass of wine with me over dinner which some people would say is a good thing!)

    I'm a lucky girl :love:

    No kids, but I keep a clean place, make dinner, do laundry, cook everything from scratch - no frozen meals, etc.

    Go to the gym right after work. Let him figure out the rest ; ). He only does it because he can.

    My boyfriend does SOME of these things, usually if he is not working (he often does nights, long stints and has four/five days off). If that is the case he will take me to work, get up with me and have breakfast and do the washing/make tea and try to do tidying etc. I have no problem with him slobbing about and relaxing but think that if he has a few days off he should try to be useful as when i work i tend to cook/clean etc because he works longer hours than i do.
    It took a while to get him to do this, he was a mummys boy and i was fairly annoyed for a little while about him being ridicualously messy. As far as i'm aware, some men just get it and some don't. I know my dad doesn't! But equally, there are many men who do chores whilst the women don't!
    Goes both ways :)

    You talking bout me? My kids doctors have never seen my wife, just heard her on phone. Kids are 14 and 16 now! My teacher schedule is just better than her hospital schedule.

    Yes! My husband is great. He does the cooking, takes care of the house (inside and out), does the grocery shopping, pays the bills and makes my dinner every night (for over 30 years now). I am blessed to have him in my life. And yes, he has 3 brothers. They are all the same way (and all married).

    My partner is fully trained in all aspects of housework, is a very good cook and so much better at ironing than me. I am eternally grateful for his skills.

    What I do
    ~work about 50 hours per week as a Chef
    ~I do the cooking (because I absolutely love to cook even after a long day)
    ~Fold my own laundry - because its mainly only pj's and chef uniforms and garments
    ~I clean the laundry for both of us - he works third shift so by the time he gets home, its shower, change and hit the sack

    What WE do together
    ~clean and put away the dishes
    ~pick up the house together
    ~Sometimes he will come with me to go grocery shopping, its nice to be together with conflicting schedules
    ~he will always ask if I need help cooking our meals.. and that I appreciate very much
    ~when Im sick, he will pitch in more so I can rest up...

    We have an empty nest now for almost three months (my 18 yr old daughter)

    When he helps me knowing Im working a very long shift, coming home seeing things taken care of AND a fresh pot of coffee made, that is just so wonderful... I do the same, Ill have his clothes in the bathroom with a towel ready for him to just jump in. A meal has already been made and an individual plate is done up for when he wakes up later, and the coffee pot is set to perk about .30 minutes before he gets up... its nice and hot when he gets up.

    We both take good care of each other....

    I cook dinner every night, drive the kids to practice and coach as well... I could do a little better in the cleaning the house department, but I do my share.

    This literally made me laugh! My husband shares your mindset most of the time!

    To the OP: I struggled a long time with my husband not really contributing to the household stuff- but we're slowly making progress. I still do 85-90% of everything related to kids, house, yard, and bills- but that's a big improvement over me doing everything. And, the more he sees my, um... appreciation for his help, the more inclined he is to pitch in! :wink:
