I'm assuming that most of us work longer hours than our SOs. In light of that, do you expect your SO to do more work around the house due to having more free time?

Of course it is- but your career choice doesn't mean they're in charge of cleaning the apartment without discussing it with them. A partnership means fairness and equality- it's not fairness to just expect the other partner to pick up the slack because you chose a demanding career.

Not necessarily- it's not their responsibility unless you agree to that and are supporting them. Their free time is based on their career choices and isn't yours to dictate.

No way unless you've agreed upon it. @Citi1 pretty much nailed it.

^^ No one is hating on this approach if it's agreed to by both parties and continues to be agreed to. The OP asked about expecting the SO to pick up more because they have free time- my point is that it needs to be an agreement and not an expectation.

Of course!

It's a team effort...

I do expect it and we have discussed this. My career will support our family so she needs to free up my time to focus on work now. Team effort, up to me to earn enough to justify this

**NEED ADVICE**

I've been working as a senior writer at
a manufacturing firm for the past 7
months. Got a management
opportunity, along with an 18K pay
bump. When I gave notice, my
company matched the salary and
offered me a title change. I then went
back and thanked the new company
for their time as I felt obligated to give
my current company a chance since
they vouched for me. Now, the
new place is offering me an additional
10K after I already told my current
employer I'd stay. Thoughts?

I am working at MSLGROUP as an Associate, less than 1 yoe , they have asked me to relocate in 4 weeks to the Location (currently wfh).
