IMPORTANT UPDATE: Am I really lazy (poll)?

[mickey house]

I have accepted defeat gracefully, and this afternoon I started decorating my son's room as a result of the dibb poll (well taking the old wallpaper off).

To give some background to my marriage, I've had 25 happy years, and then I met my wife.

I work a few or so days a week for myself (my choice), and I feel I am always doing other bits around the house, but my wife has told me that I am very slow to get jobs done around the house such as decorating, replacing taps, finishing the bathroom that I started 18 months ago etc etc.

In a nutshell, I believe my wife thinks I am a bit lazy. I don't feel she understands that as a bloke I have to spend a great deal of my time thinking about the tasks ahead. From experience I have learnt that it's better to do a good job rather than a rushed job.

Apart from my wife suggesting that I am lazy, she is a good one, so I am reluctant to start divorce proceedings just yet, so I would appreciate honest feedback from the dibb community.

is this a serious question?

forum's make it very difficult to identify when people are being sarcastic or tongue in cheek?! haha

This is very serious, and should the poll sway towards divorcing my wife, then she will have to leave the home within the hour (just like they do on can't pay we'll take it away).

Definitely divorce her!
She shouldn’t have married you if she didn’t understand what men are like imo 🤔

M.H. I love your posts. For your sake I hope your Wife doesn't read this or you will be sat outside for 9 months wondering how to force the front door lock.

I appreciate it's a long time but you do like to ponder about jobs.

Do you spend as much time thinking up your next Dibb thread as you do thinking about your next household task ? If you do then I vote Lazy , get on and do some work instead

I think women will vote 3 or 4 men will vote 1 or 2. Woman carnt live with them carnt kill them and bury them under the patio and tell everyone she has gone to live with her mother in Spain.

I voted 3, maybe you spend too much time focusing on coffee when you could be emptying the bin or re-grouting the bathroom tiles 😉😉

Give Mrs MH my number. I'll give her a bit of advice. In the meantime, get your backside out of Costa and finish that bathroom
