  I have an overwhelming urge to sing songs from "Barney" right now.

  What does everyone else do to make their husband/boyfriend do chores? Chore charts? Rewards? *** when he doesnt take out the trash? Or does everyone else just accept all household chore responsibility?

  I don't do anything to make my husband do chores because I'm not his mom. He does them on his own because he's an adult that shares an equal responsibility for what happens in the house. 

  We both live here. We both work, and we both parent our kid equally, so we pretty much split the housework. I probably do more than him simply because I'm much more OCD about cleaning, and I'm not going to expect him to clean something the way I want it cleaned. 

  What people are trying to make you understand is that if he is not interested in helping now, he's probably not ever going to be, regardless of how many rewards you give him for being a good little boy. 
  

   

  Yup...what Buddha said is gouda. Totally agree.

  If I had to have a chore chart with rewards to my SO to do chores, we'd probably never be having sex. Ever again.

  Real adults clean up for themselves when they make a mess. I work at a preschool and if a 2 year old toddler can throw away their lunch and pick up their toys, your adult BF should be able to pick up after himself without getting pissy about it.

  And if the stormy weather came...I'd just kiss you in the rain...
