No. Just no. Men already have a mom and they don't need one to live with. Help him here and there, but give him sweet reminders he needs to take responsibility as well.

Women do this?

Lmao 😂
Yep.
Lmao...I am doing this all the time and I’ve done this with my ex Cap because he wasn’t able to do anything nor he wanted to. When his father visited he always gave him hard time for not doing shit around the house...I didn’t mind a lot...
Our Libra child is dating now and she had vacationed with her father and his wife and she told me that daddy is such a high maintenance and she isn’t spending her life serving man like your mom’...
With Aries...well...he was doing just fine in his own keeping every household chore done mainly because due to a custody battle - child services were checking and he was a good housekeeper.
Then...I’ve entered his life and of course...from being ‘nobody ever made coffee for me’ he became ‘are you walking the dog’?..😂😂😂
When I am here with them - I am totally in control of everything that i am considering ‘women territory’...
And I get shit from women who are believing in men need to take care of themselves...but they can talk their heads off!
I am enjoying doing what I am doing because that’s how I was brought up.
My Moms Moro was - if you want man to rush home after work - make home his safe heaven!
Don’t nag. Make dinner and let him rest.
If he doesn’t like house chores - he needs to make money for you to hire professionals who can put up shelf or fix the faucet etc.
And my father always came home with flowers!
Honey! You can’t be good for everybody. I expect more women will shit on you because of feminism and equality! My ass! Those are the women who are bitching because they can’t FIND a man who will appreciate them because they don’t show men that they care!
Woman is creator of cozy home. Men are providers. If woman bitching that she is working hard and need him to do half - he will find his safe harbor elsewhere because let’s face it - men love peace! And food. And sex. That’s about it!
So as a woman - work less. Be a woman more!
And before you start showing your feminist side - show your feminine side!
And again - most women here bitching about ban men! Most men bitching about shortage or women who care...I am sure we won’t do this. Because out men are happy! ❤️👍click to expand

Be careful that you don't make it a long-term habit of yours. Once the both of you work together to get that house perfect, make sure he keeps it that way as much as he can.
Work together to keep it in good working order from here on out.

He doesn’t have a good mom and his childhood was challenging. He’s been on his own since 17.
The thing is, he doesn’t care enough to do anything about the issues he’s had so he just lives in chaos. But I know he felt so much better after I cleaned. Doesn’t everyone though?
If you're fine and happy about it, why not. But keep in mind that he doesn't bother changing his ways, so you'll have to keep doing this for god knows how long, and I'm afraid that he could take it for granted in the long haul.click to expand

Sometimes I baby him, sometimes he babies me. But it’s important for there to be a give and take. If he’s not making an effort back your gonna start resenting him. Especially when he thrashes those spaces and all your effort is wasted.

Your relationship seems balance and that’s very important. My guy gives in other ways. He pays for most things (breakfast, lunch, dinner, groceries) and he has cooked me dinner a bunch of times. As well as a bunch of little things that don’t go unnoticed. I don’t feel used. If anything I feel like our relationship grew a tiny because we got to know each other in a different area of our lives.
You can’t teach people to care!
Those who comes out with ‘cleaning service’ suggestion APPARENTLY never HAD a cleaning service!
I had a friend whom I paid to clean my house and for her to really clean it was 10am to 8pm!
And no! My house was clean because while having business we weren’t home most of the time...but it’s still...a house! If you do honest work - 4 hours won’t do shit!
Cleaning service make believe they clean!
Worse experience I had. No more.
And nobody will clean as a woman who loves a man who owes that house. 😇click to expand

Exactly, nothing wrong with giving a helping hand and some direction on how to organise better. But to become a mother to an adult, no!click to expand

It's not about not caring. It's about finding the time and energy.
Before corona we both travel for work a lot and we don't want to come back home cleaning or when we see eachother we gonna spend that time cleaning the house. No way, that time could be spend otherwise to someone who wants to make some money.
We have a really good cleaning lady for 20€/hour!click to expand

Has anyone ever done this or had someone do it to you? What are your thoughts?
I find myself doing this a lot lately for my aries. He is considered the child of the zodiac signs afterall. It all started when I noticed how dirty and literally disgusting parts of his house were that he hid from me by keeping doors shut and then stopped cleaning the bathrooms and putting clean clothes away in the last month. So I offered to clean/organize things and it took me 10 hours so far. Still have more to do this week... then as I cleaned I discovered more things! His shower liner/bath math desperately needs replacing, all of his socks have holes so now I’m buying these things for him because I want him to have a better life. I’m starting to feel like a mom.
His defense is he’s in survival mode. (Yea he can certainly survive in extreme conditions 🙄) Works a lot/has no time. And he really appreciates all I’ve done. I also think it’s a sign of trust that he’s showing me his true self.
Plus I do other little things for him because the bottom line is he doesn’t really take care of most of his personal needs. Ie. I bought him shampoo cuz he didn’t have any for a month and hand cream for his rough sad hands but only I put it on him.
I don’t mind doing any of this honestly, but I’m wondering if this is normal male behavior or if men ever hate this? How much do you do for your man? Is this how roles of the household are established? Men, what are your thoughts?

Good. As long as there is that balance and effort on both sides then it’ll work. Society tells you there is only one or 2 ways to be but the reality is your relationship is between the 2 of you, no one else.click to expand

If his bathroom is really nasty I would probably leave and never come back. 🤣
So he has a master bathroom and a half bathroom that I use. Never too bad. Then there’s another bathroom outside the bedroom that only he uses and has the door mostly shut. I never went in it until last week and that’s when I discovered the dirtiest and smelliest bathroom I’ve ever seen......... took me over an hour to clean it. He even said he stopped using it because it was dirty 😅 except to shower. Master shower apparently isn’t good because u feel cold air so that’s why he used the other bathroom. But it looks great now!!
🤢 I can't believe you managed to clean it. I feel sick just reading this and picturing what it must have looked like. Yuck!🤮 Lol.
Well, well done. I would never have managed. I would probably have screamed and had nightmares about it. 🤣click to expand

Because women forgot what’s the core of rship is!

There’s a big difference between helping someone and being a door mat
Some people will take the piss big time and end up being big dependent babies for life.

Regular crappy service here is $ 50/hour and they have more donts than does...
What they do is dusting and vacuuming and they don’t move nothing so behind furniture is still dusty...and if window involved it goes up to $ 120/hour...
No! Fuck them...😂😂😂
But I think what @pinkbird is saying she loves the man and she loves to take care of him because she sees him is THE ONE and she is as smart REAL woman is building the nest and Aries sees everything! I bet his heart is singing...he is a man with no good mother figure - she is showing him love! Isn’t it beautiful? ❤️
Those cleaners duped you hard😂
She is showing her love language. That is indeed beautiful!click to expand

I do to a degree (cancer moon)
But my nagging is more about safety. I’ll say stuff like drive safe, I’ll yell at him for texting while driving, if he’s sick I’ll try nursing him back to health.. stuff like that. But I don’t really nag about messy car or messy house etc.
