    Hey all, I'm back from dinner and pud, gonna go waste some time playing again, feeling under appreciated, might stop cooking for my housemate once the food he paid for has been used. Am I expecting too much? Just the amount of thanks I get doesn't seem like much considering the time, effort and thought I put into it each day. How do the wives here cope with that?

    Maybe he's just not that into food Ruby? sounds like you make a big effort with delicious results but some folk just eat to live rather than live to eat. Perhaps he'd be just as happy with a pasta dish rustled up in 20 mins...
    If on the other hand he's a foodie then he's just bloomin rude!:D

    And in a further series of lectures, Len will describe how the woman should be placed within the house, and the attire she shall be wearing.

    Even if she has to put the bin out...

    It is one of this American trainers workout DVD's. Sammy gave it to me. The trainer is on that TV show 'The Biggest Loser'. you're supposed to do a workout for 20 minutes every day for 30 days and see massive changes.

    Yeah, lol. Do you see my point though, if women were still in the home and the men were still the breadwinners, there would be less of a struggle out there. Im not saying its right. Nearly cost me my marriage though :D
