No!
okay i've angered folk. i didn't mean to be sexist or anything. i just think that men are much more willing to live like scruffy bastards. i'm quite happy to go to bed knowing that the sink is full of dirty plates. Why do today, what you can do tomorrow?
upon reflection... mabey this is why i am, once again, single.

Yeah, it took me getting married to stop living like a slob. haha

Haha, I should clarify, I didn't quit smoking in order to afford the cleaning lady, or get the cleaning lady as a direct reward for quitting smoking--just that cost of living is pretty low here & it's incredibly affordable now that the high, high cost of smoking is out of our lives!
Granted, I have this funny feeling that if I relapse & start smoking again, I won't be giving up that 3 hrs a week she comes in and takes care of business for me!

The cost of quitting smoking is not measured financially, at least not directly. And it is usually erroneously considered to be a cost saving decision. However, it is a measure of the cost of medical attention that those around you require, less the cost of cigarettes. Usually its cheaper to smoke.

With that child on the way, please keep the cost of smoking out of your life. I know too many children who have been greatly affected by their parents continued smoking. The cost of smoking is far greater than just the money is costs to buy the cigarettes.

Either please tell me you're being sarcastic, or please explain your statement. It sounds like you're saying it's cheaper to smoke because it will makes those around you sick.

Actually, no I am saying that it is cheaper to smoke, because if I quit, I will have to pay the doctor bills of the people that piss me off.

that is the most insane thing i ever heard. you still have to pay, either way.

Gotcha and understand it completely. I quit while I was working at a prison, so I could work off any stress I had by picking a fight.

This is me after about 2 hrs or so without a smoke.
Spoiler:
Haha. Well, admitting to it is the first step. I just hate to clean a room and then get up the next day and find my husband's used cereal bowl on the table, or any other crap he may have pulled out during the night. Biggest pet peeve: when he takes his socks off and leaves them all balled up in the floor. I mean, I do the laundry, and the last thing I want to do is put my hand in a dirty sock to 'unball' it to put it in the washer.Okay...now...just so you all don't think that its all Mrs. Coz's fault...I do have trouble with this one.
But I'm getting better...I don't want to touch my own dirty socks.
I don't think that's being sexist. From what I've seen, men are usually more comfortable sitting in a dirty house, than women are. (Of course, it depends on the person too.) When I still worked, I'd come home and immediately start cleaning. My husband would say things like: "Just relax for a while. Do it later." But, for me..I can't relax in a dirty house. I'm just to ocd about it, I think.okay i've angered folk. i didn't mean to be sexist or anything. i just think that men are much more willing to live like scruffy bastards. i'm quite happy to go to bed knowing that the sink is full of dirty plates.

I wish my wife were the "typical" woman. Before she moved in, the house was pretty clean. I mean, you couldn't eat off the floor, but you could see things like the chairs, the tables, the couch, the floor. Now, not so much. I've never seen anyone so messy. She just sets stuff down whereever she can reach at that moment and forgets about it. And then asks me where the Visa bill is.

I do these household chores. I also work on the car, do "Man's" work around the home but... wifey is always a BIG force in working on the car and home improvement. I have the knowledge but my shaky hands prevent me from doing the actual work on the car and home improvement. So I educate wifey on how to do such things, all the little tricks, and she does them while I hold the flashlight.
All that's left of what we were is what we have become.
Sam--I really don't think its necessary to lecture me on smoking while pregnant when I've already stated I'm not smoking, nor is this thread about smoking, nor is my health decisions while pregnant any one else's business, unless I should choose to share. [ /off-topic]
YOU MUST CHILL. I HAVE HIDDEN YOUR KEYS.
Ves, my intent was not to lecture you, and I am very sorry it looked that way. You are correct that it's no one's business unless you decide to share.
Again, I'm sorry it seemed I was lecturing.

You haven't lived with ALL men. I find that my mindset is much like yours in that I too, can't relax in a dirty house. Wifey, however is quite the accomplished slob.
