For those of you who live together already, how do you divide the household chores between you and FH? Is your FH a good cook? Is one of you neater than the other?
For those of you who do not yet live together, have you and your FH discussed who will do what when it comes to chores around the house?
My FH and I have lived together for two years and if you asked either of us, we'd probably say that we each clean more than the other! He is definitely the more organized of the two of us. But we do definitely both clean! He does not cook AT ALL, except to make me tea occasionally! So I do all of that, but he DOES go grocery shopping, which is great!

I think my DH does more housework than I do. He likes to vacuum and do the laundry. I do all of the cooking, dishes etc and we both go grocery shopping. I think we've found a good balance.

Although we both love to cook and switch on and off who makes dinner, our basic rule is he takes care of the outside of the house and I take care of the inside. It works out well :)

We live together and we try to split all the work 50/50. He is the cook in the house so I take care of all the dishes and putting things away.

We've lived together for 6 years. Neither of us are clean freaks but he is def more organized then me. We both cook/do dishes. I do most of the indoor stuff and he does all outdoor stuff. He'll never clean the bathroom and I will never mow the lawn. We've found what works for us!

Re: QOTD-Thursday, May 17
We've lived together almost 3 years. We kind of just let chores fall where they did, which meant I do most of the cleaning, and manage our household bills. FH does the dishes and all of the outside maintenance (since we bought a house). We split cooking duties, but FH definitely holds his own with that. We each do our own laundry.

I'm sure when we live together it will be 50/50... we make a really good team, so I'm sure we'll figure it out.

Re: QOTD-Thursday, May 17
Im soo jealous.. In our house its 90/10 meaning I do 90% of the cleaning, no scratch that I do 100% of the cleaning and laundry and we rent an apartment so there is no outside work to be down..... He helps out with the kidies to give him credit. So funny because last night I told him when we buy a house im going to hire someone to do the lawn and all the yard work because I know he won't do it
