Does Your Husband Clean His Dish After Eating?

I think your hubby and mine are brothers. I can't get him to clean up either and even when I ask him to nicely, he refuses to. Not only with the dishes but with everything else as well. I've tried and tried and tried and to no avail. He is just not domesticated and I have accepted it because I have had enough of stressing over it. I know he was spoilt by his mom and had everything handed to him and I am going to make sure it does NOT rub off on my son. Sorry I was not of any help.

My husband does clean his dish, or I'll pick it up and scrape it into my plate. There are times that neither of us do it to as we don't have our own place yet and so his mom will clean up our food. I know it's rather lazy of us. We've both had people do stuff like that most of our lives or well on my case it just sat there until I was yelled at for it. I rather regret not being scolded more for not doing my chores properly as it's made me a lazy person. I love to clean but on my own terms, and I'd like to have a semi-quiet house when I do clean.

Sounds a lot like my husband! I have to "nag" him about it. He will half eat his food and either leave it on the table, couch, or where ever he is at the time or he will put it in the refrigerator (not covered) with the excuse that he will eat it later. This never happens though. He will leave it in the fridge eternally if I never cleaned up. I blame it on his mom. My husband has never lived alone. He lived with his mom up until we got married. So I know he never had to do it himself. I wish I knew of a way to get him to clean up anything. He leave things all over the place. So if you find a way, please let me know!

my Husband won;t Clean Dishes After Eating. he feels that it is ladies duty,as i am housewife i should only do .as we don;t have dishwasher,its compulsory for me to clean dishes. he won;t do cooking also ,as most indian men feels that ,cooking and cleaning is ladies duty,he also feels like that . some times when there is party in my house for more people, he helps me in kitchen by cutting vegetables or preparing any recipe.

Yes, my husband does scrape off his plate after meals and will put it into the sink as well. He will also take my dish to the sink too. And once in a blue moon, he will wash the dishes. Now, I literally just asked him why he does it. His response was "to give you a break". Haha... a break. I like to think its just his way of showing he is thankful. Maybe you should stop cooking for your husband, feed him fatty fast foods and refuse to pick up after the mess. Do that for a few days and see if he changes his ways. The heart of the home is in the kitchen and one of the best ways to show you love someone is to take the time to cook a healthy meal. He should be thankful and show it by picking up after himself.

WEll, my husband doesnot clean regularly but when my servant is not there and I am ill then he prefer to wash it.

No, my husband doesn't clean his dish after eating. I guess husbands are like that. :) I understand my hubby since he is often busy at work and that his hands are tired of hitting the keyboard. He is a programmer. I'm a housewife and it's my responsibility to do the household even washing my hubby's dish. That's my point of view and lifestyle.

my husband usually finishes all that is on his plate, my problem more lies in the fact that he does not always take his dish to the sink or kitchen... he likes to eat in the livingroom when he gets off of work and I find his dishes there on a daily basis...guess he is so tired after a hard night working.

Sometimes he helps me out with the dishes. You know, I have this skin problem, too sensitive for the chemical substance from dish cleaner liquid. we in Indonesia don't normally use dish washer and we have to do it manually. mu hubby knows that if i clean the dishes in a longer period my eczema will come infected me. i guess i'm lucky to have the understanding hubby :)

my husband always scraps his dish. He is awesome at it. I am lucky. All I can say is don't clean it up. Once it starts to smell and he can't stand it anymore then eventually he will do it himself. Whatever you do stand your ground there is no reason why he can't do it himself.
