It was the opposite on my end.
Him: what's wrong?
Me: *is very specific about things he's not doing (mainly concerning housework which is exhausting to do everyday by myself with no help at all)*
Him: ok I'll do it. *proceeds not to do it ever, even when reminded about it for days on end and the apartment looks like a trash pile*
Rinse and repeat until I can't take it anymore and blow up, and he does the "i don't know what I did, you're getting mad over nothing" bs as if it was my fault
It was absolutely infuriating.

get that magic coffee table, you know the one, you put something on it at night, and in the morning it's gone or back in it's place
