OMG this drives me crazy. We both have ADHD but it feels like I'm the only one who does anything about trying to remember things. And it's such a double standard with him, he requires me to remember every little thing about what's going on in life but the moment I tell him something that's important to me it's like it goes in one ear and out of the other smh. And then when I try to implement lists and reminders I'm "treating him like a child". At this point I just let him handle his business and don't get involved. And if he forgets or misses a deadline or appointment, well... you should've set a reminder or written yourself a note.
THIS. ALL OF IT. My husband keeps saying “I feel like I never do anything right” - sir. Because you don’t listen??? Like. I try my hardest to make it easy for you..
I have a paper calendar on the fridge so he’s not surprised when I have something to do.
They have the memory of the goldfish when they don’t get kudos for it. They’d be fired if they did this at work, but even at work, I’ve noticed some men are really badly organized but somehow still get to lead big projects while others pick up the slack.
Goldfish husband here. Ever since my wife put a paper calendar on the fridge for the month of all various kids or work related events has improved my time mgmt skills.
In fairness, half the time she shares events with me, it is literally while walking by me, face pointed in another direction, mumbling, if not providing me updates while another floor, in another room, while one kid is singing and other one is telling me stories about minecraft.
Is he forgetful about things that are important to him?
Sick of these men weaponizing incompetence at home. Feeling sorry for these wives. Men know they can’t try this at work. And they are the ones that give career advice and performance reviews while also being horrible bosses 🙄 The hypocrisy!
I need wives to double down, find their husband’s work persona — how he talks to his subordinates/team — and use it on him.
They never forget their own plans… drinks with the boys but will happily miss and “forget” doctor’s appointments, school events. Bless their wives’ hearts.
I love this 😂
They all do. I have the white board too
Girl… I set up a whole app that will tell my husband exactly what he should be doing around the house every single day because he said he needed to be told… and he still won’t use it -.- I just don’t get it.
Accurate as F! We have a digital calendar and a paper family planner around and I still get asked what’s for dinner? What are our plans?
Like open your freakin eyes!
Also, this is called kin keeping.
My husband is the complete opposite. He remembers everything in detail. He is like a walking database. I feel so inferior sometimes because I keep forgetting things. If I tell him something about someone remotely related, it goes into his memory like a script. It is so difficult to keep up with him at times, but I am trying my best.😅
