I sometimes think about how other people have less happy relationships than mine, and that makes me sad for them

      But it’s simpler. Cause it’s not hard to have to do more laundry. It’s the initial actions that are a problem. Cause it takes me the same amount of time to load the detergent and other stuff. Plus it’s the mental burden of having many things to take care of. With two, it’s the same amount of things even though each thing is bigger, but it’s easier to take care of and split.

      Yeah but then zero of many things.

      I may do double dishes. But zero baking and I’m rewarded with cookies randomly.

      I may do double cleaning. But zero when it comes to buying gifts and cards for people, because she loves doing that. And I get to reap all the benefits.

        Absolutely this. I suck at cooking but my wife is great at it. She hates doing dishes but I really don’t mind.
