He reassured me he wouldn't be the tyrant kind of husband.

He does help sometimes, which is nice, but I still ask for help here and there.

A couple of months ago, we made an agreement that he would help me with cleaning up after I made food, as I really hate that part.

Today, after I made lunch, I jokingly said, quote, good luck with cleanup because there was a lot of pots.

However, he started getting upset and told me that this is my job and not his.

He said he worked so hard his whole life, which is why he has the job that he currently has and how it's not his fault that I have a job as a housewife.

This was hurtful because he doesn't really respect women who work and doesn't take them seriously either.

It's like no matter what I do, I can never earn his respect.

I feel like a weird toxic boss slash employee relationship.

He told me it's up to him when he will help me.

He will decide, not me.

He told me to shut up and do my job.

Our argument escalated and I tried to explain our initial agreement, but he started getting more disrespectful.

I also got disrespectful too.

He started saying how I have a pointless degree and I never finish anything in life, which is why I have the job of a housewife.

I felt disrespected and underappreciated.

The argument got really bad to the point where he called me a whore and that he could get any woman he wants.

Woof!

And that any woman would be extremely happy with being his housewife.

Luna!
