A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife stayed home. He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed, "Dear Lord, I go to work every day and put in 8 hours while my wife merely stays at home. I want her to know what I go through, so please create a trade in our bodies.
" God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish.
The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman. He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate, awakened the kids, set out their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed their lunches, drove them to school, came home and picked up the dry cleaning, took it to the cleaners and stopped at the bank to draw out money to pay the power bill and telephone bill, drove to the power company and the phone company and paid the bills, went grocery shopping, came home and put away the groceries.
He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog. Then it was already 1 p.m. and he hurried to make the beds, do the laundry, vacuum, dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen floor. Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with them on the way home. Set out cookies and milk and got the kids organized to do their homework, then set up the ironing board and watched TV while he did the ironing.
At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing greens for salad, breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper. After supper he cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher, folded laundry, bathed the kids, and put them to bed. At 9 p.m. he was exhausted and, though his daily chores weren't finished, he went to bed where he was expected to make love - which he managed to get through without complaint.
The next morning he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and said, "Lord, I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my wife's being able to stay home all day. Please, oh please, let us trade back."
The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied, "My son, I feel you have learned your lesson and I will be happy to change things back to the way they were. You'll have to wait 9 months, though. You got pregnant last night!"

God is so good be careful what u wish for #GodisAwesome
Don't want what others have, you just might get it, and then what?
Wonderful, as I laughed and could see how to laugh and laugh well.
I DID ALL THEM THINGS AS A STAY HOME MOM AND THEN SOME I HAD 12 CHILDERN ,,THEN I WOULD BE ASKED BY MY HUSBAND WHY I WAS TIRED ,, OH MY ,,
If Only women didn't make babies like we're running out of people ,nearly 7.000.000.000 aren't we enough?
Lol!
Haaaaaa oh that was such a good story. Had to laugh at the end were he got pregnant haaa. But that story describes women so well. They don't get any appreciate from men and men think that women are so lazy and do nothing all day. Its hard work for a woman all they do especially as well looking after kids. All a woman wants then is a little bit of love from her husband and for him to appreciate her and look after her. The women has to look after the men as well as if there children. Its such a mans world. There is a very odd man that will respect- all the things that a women does and understands how she feels and sees how stressed out she does be with all she has to do and he pitys her and tries to help her out a bit. Fair play to them men because they were brought up proper and now how to treat women. Pity all the other men in the world cudnt learn from there example. Loved this story
If only "women" didn't "make" babies?? I think MEN have a big role in that, but then again, it's always the woman's fault, right???? (rolls eyes)
Yeah!Typical males for you. Perhaps if they held on to 'IT' more often than not, there would be less people in the world.
You are so right. Some men act like spoilt brats when they at home and are expected to be waited on because they work hard all day. Well, I got news for those guys. You had kids you help look after not only by working for money but in the physical sense of the word, especially when your wives have to work to make ends meet. F..k! We entitled to have a relax too.
It may surprise you to know that the majority of couples have children because they want to love and cherish them. Do you honestly think people have kids with the intent to add to the population?
Please, please, please, with an attitude like that, do not breed yourself.
Oh its a mans life. They wud never cope without us women. Lol. They wud be so lost and wudnt know were to start. Just picture if it was just a world without men us women wud cope and could manage because we are so independant and have many roles. But a world of men without women haha they wouldn't last a day cos they would be lost and wouldn't know what to do for themselfs. All they would do is drink and party. The world would be gone to chaos haha
Really? You think "women" make babies by themselves??? The last time I checked it takes a man and a woman to make one..if men weren't so horny, we won't have a population explosion!!! What were you thinking when you made that comment?!?
You obviously new better than to sign your name to your comment because that has got to be one of the stupidest comments ever. Please, next time think before responding.
When i tell my husband how tired i am, all he says is why are you always tired. I do blame their Mothers as they did everything for them. They expect their wives & partners to take over from their Mothers. But sadly their Mothers didn't do them any favours. These men are so helpless, can't look after themselves or the home. This is why they can't understand that a woman needs love & understanding. Not just there to serve them. Most young men of to day are so much better.I did enjoy this story. Made me laugh. "I must share"
The men that should read this. will never bcause they r not on fb.
So this is a day in a stay at home mothers life??? I call bullsht. Show me a woman that mops her floors, does laundry, goes to the dry cleaners,bank,irons clothes, washes the dog,and goes to the market everyday and I will show you an underpaid maid.
Gosh... we have taken a funny haha and turned it into a b***h session. Take it for what it is worth....something to make us chuckle about and bring a smile to our faces. Can't it be left at that?
Can't a woman go to the clinic for that these days ?
Amen to that, men think their part of looking after the kids is by working n bringing in the mney not knwing thers more to that, if the mney cums it hs to buy food, cleaning equipment, petrol to collect the kids frm skool, laundry expenses etc.. Wen thy cum hme all thy do is sit on their butts n do nothing more thn create an even bigger mess in the house which they expect u to clean up without cmplaining..argh!!!
Thank u lord for making me a woman and helping bring my lovely babies into the world, ill never regret that!!
so true..very well said
Haha>>>Thank you Jesus. :D ..
That is cute. I did all that and worked. Have to love multi tasking. ;)
If you have a maid that does all this, you should pay her more. Most stay-at-home mothers do all this and MUCH more!!

This was great!!!! Men should know what it takes to do the things that some women have to go through! And then they keep a full-time job!!! Go figure!!!!!!!!
I 2 laughed at this and yes its good BUT:
I thank God that I not only have a man who does nothing at all he helps me with all the work in the house and our kids. Yes all men aren't as mine but God blessed me as his mother brawt him up to be a man not a mouse. He works brings in money so do I bring in my share of money. We on a 50/50 and his masagges are to die for. Sorry to the women who has the lazy ones I'm blessed by the best. Pity he couldn't do the pregnancy for us this round as we want one. Lol.
Ummm, last I knew, it takes a man and a woman to have a baby.
I laughed 'til I cried. Never wish for things that you aren't prepared to accept.
Being a female...I have a job, I'm a Mother, plus I do ALL of the chores. (ie--cooking,cleaning,parenting,the 'maintenance' person,etc.)My so called Husband makes 10X's more $$ than I do--when his Mother died, she did apologize 2 me about NOT teaching him 2 do any chores being that she believed that he would only b a child once & didn't enforce any chores on him. It's my own fault 4 allowing him 2 NOT help out. After 28yrs. of doing everything..I'm now feeling resentment. His answer 2 this is--I make the $$ & ur job is 2 raise the kids & do ALL of the chores. Unfortunately 4 me, I do not make close 2 his wage so 2 him my $$ I make is nothing. His excuse of getting away with helping with the kids/chores is--it's my job, he doesn't help because he works, it's his days off or it's his holidays. Not only do I have a job but I come home 2 my 2nd job.(Mother/housewife) I'm on call/work 24/7 at my 'home' job & when do 'I' get a day off? I stopped making his lunch,doing his laundry, etc. & it didn't faze him. All it did was give him the excuse 2 say 2 me...."U don't do anything around here,& if I complain he says, "Oooh,u have it so bad doing nothing. I am so ashamed of myself because the 'old' me would say.."See ya!".But the older I get my 'old' me is broken & I can't find her. My self esteem is lost & 2 start over is such a scary alternative. I just want 2 b happy again. If my life can teach my teenage daughter on what 2 take or 2 take in a spouse..(it's sad) but I feel my life hasn't been in vain. If anyone can give me some advice or some way 2 get my confidence back, plz.feel free 2 tell me. (P.S. I already know I shouldn't take it & leave but 4 me it's not that easy) Thanks 4 reading this.

I'm so glad that my son's know how to do all of those things. That's how they were raised. Proud mother of Two boys, and One girl, and they know how to do everything.
maybe if men didnt think with their dicks and go around acting as sperm donors half the time, the population wouldnt be as high. Obviusly mr anoymous is sexually inexperienced as he has no concept of how a baby is concieved. wot a knob, excuse the punn.
This story has nothing about a man and a woman having babies. The "MAN" thought his wife was doing nothing at home cause he worked so hard outside of the home. So he prayed and asked to change places with his wife, and it was done. He then found out that his wife was doing more than just watching soaps on t.v. and even served him in bed without a fuss. I'm so glad he got pregnant, and not her.
WOMEN HAS WIDE BACKS TO CARRIE ALL THE BLAME/.YES WOMEN CAN GO TO CLINIC BUT WHY CAN'T MEN GO AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT PREVENTING FROM HAVING CHILDREN
You need to reprioritize. 28 years is long enough. You are a person with feelings. You should respect yourself more. You already admit that your self esteem is lost. Do yourself a favor and your daughter as well. Starting over is scary but you can do it. You deserve happiness. Sounds like you need some good professional advice as to where to begin. Good luck!
Omg that was so good I wasn't expecting that ending though.thank you for that good laugh loved it..I have 7 boys they all know how to clean the house do the wash and fold clothes and the are great cooks the only problem is they were taught to well because the girls now days don't know how to cook or clean good enough so the boys do it all by there selfs lol
Sorry you think it is woman that made those babies, didn't your mom teach you how babies were made. But, this is about woman that stay at home instead of a nice soft chair and a desk, get tired so easy , since they just sit around all day watching TV or whatever......
I understand your distress completely! My Ex was the same way! I finally got the strength to leave him after 28 years together. I did my children no favor by staying either. Most of them are like him. You are not doing your children a favor either. They are learning from their father what kind of man/woman they will put up with because you do. Please do not let this happen to them. They are still young and impressionable! I know it is hard to raise your children and grandchildren, but you can do it! There are programs and services you can get assistance with for child care, etc. My children, every one of them, take abuse from their spouses, in one form or another, verbal, emotional, physical and they do not fight back. Even the boys, because they were taught by me not to hit girls. I have 4 boys and 2 girls and they are all grown. It is too late for me to change what they take from their mates because I was too weak to leave. Please do not let this happen to them.
This is awesome and sounds like a typical housewifes day!Cant wait to see that man have the baby!!!
The grass is always greener AMEN !
yep my man the same, he expects me to do everything and still be available to him in bed. and when I try to get a little help cos I cant quite do something, he goes I do work all day. my simple response always shuts him up real quick! I tell him well I work 24 hours a day, if u wanna swap then u be a stay at home dad with bub all day while I work...he hasn't complained much since I said that...but he still doesn't help either..
be careful of what you pray/wish for.
your very lucky, the last part made me smile though!!! about the bubba hahah
Mhm.. let me guess.. and you are the mother-in-law from hell, right?
Is a nice story. Thank you God for everything . I want to be myself
OMG "can't women go to a clinic for that" are you for real. Have u had to decide whether or not your child lives or dies? What a heartless comment to make.
that was awesome hahahahaha I couldn't stop laughing thank you I needed that
hun, a 1,000 people could give you advice. and i can almost guarantee that it will be to pick yourself up and get the hell out.
no one can make you happy and content, that all lies within your power.
walk out that door, kick his ass out and you will be so much farther ahead and so much more happier. there is no comparison in a life without the stress of a selfish man. he is only using his paycheck as a weapon.
this i speak to you from experience. after 18yrs i got sick and tired of being the marriage workhorse. the dog he kicked and was told that i did nothing, that he was the one working keeping a roof over our heads and food on the table. well guess what? i was the one cleaning under that roof. i not only helped buy the food but I was the one PUTTING the food on the table after cooking supper "after" i had worked 8-10hrs a day. plus take care of the kids, do homework, laundry and all the rest of it.
when i left? OMG!!!! what a feeling of lightness, of absolute freedom. i can't even begin to explain how much better off my life and my kids lives were.
right now? it's all up to you. you can continue to live the way you are and wallow in your misery. because you are talking yourself into staying. OR you can stand up and be the leader that you actually are. and trust me..... getting him out of your life will make a huge difference in how you feel about yourself, your home and kids.
you will be amazed at how good life can truly be.
Lesson learned the hard way
OMG Me and my husband laugh so hard at this story. I will be please to share this. Thank You for the laughter!!!!!
Hahahaha!!! Loved it. Good to see a man walk in a womans shoe....I would love to see him go through the birth of having that baby!!! Lol...
My question is this, of all the comments, the negative ones all say anonymous. Seems to me that they should at least post a name and take credit for their ignorance. As for the story, truth is eye opening. (I am male, yet even I am not daft enough to believe that the woman sits around all day eating bon-bon's.
This is funny, but really who do the hubby's think does all the work in the house? Do they think the wife sits there watching soaps and a little tinkerbell or something comes in and does it all?
I love this post. Years ago when our kids were still in school, two of my sisters asked me to go with them to visit our only brother in another state for a week. I told them I couldn't but my husband took a week's vacation from work so that he could take care of our four kids while I went with them. I think he thought it would be a piece of cake. While I was gone, beside the usual tasks that needed to be done for the kids and house, one of our sons got lice at school and our youngest was throwing up and my husband had to insert a suppository. When I returned home it was to two dozen roses, a spotless house and a loving husband who said he didn't know how much he missed me till I was gone. He smothered me for a few days,I couldn't leave his side. I loved the attention but it was a little too much. That trip made a big difference in our marriage. I didn't work part time until the youngest was 13, per my husband's decision that I stay home to take care of the house and kids. I can't imagine what it would have been like to work full time and manage the house and kids. I don't know how women do it. We have been married for over 40 years, both retired and enjoying life together.
Since your husband makes a lot of money and doesn't help you in any of the chores, he can contribute by paying to get help, like maid or cleaning service, nanny etc. You also should go get frequent massages to learn how to relax and destress. He might not know how to appreciate you or treat you good but if he feels taking care of his family is through his paycheck, then you should at least use that to make yourself happier. Don't overwork yourself to do everything. You only end up to be miserable and it's not good for your health physically and mentally. Don't think of divorce easily, only as the last resort when everything else fails. It's not easy either going through this route.
OKAFOR SPIRITUAL TEMPLE thanks for making my wish true! I was totally devastated when Frank left me. It was like all my world vanishing into sorrow and pain. But your kind words when I first emailed you gave me hope. I felt how sincere, honest and authentic he were from his first email. I know it sounds weird but out of all the casters I contacted, he were the only one to give me that impression of being so true and caring. More than your words, it s the fantastic work you accomplished for me that I will keep in mind. He brought my lover back and he made all my wishes come true. He s now loyal, pays attention to me, he offers me flowers every Sunday, and we often go out at the cinema or at the restaurant. I will be forever thankful for turning my life from hell to heaven! okaforspiritualtemple@gmail.com is the only answer to your problems okaforspiritualtemple@gmail.com
Have your husband read all these comments. Maybe it will help.. he..he.. he..
Hahaha, serves him right
Some women make good partners but on the other hand some women take it out the back door as fast as the husband brings it in the front door. They don't have dinner done when the husband gets in from work. The house is a mess and the kids are on the street, doing God knows what. The husband has to come home after a long hot day at work, fix dinner, bathe the kids and fix his own lunch for the next day. I see this more often than not, so lets not trash only the men in this situation. Oh! I'm a woman too.
thanks Dave that was oh so true lol
I think this is great when my children were small I got to hear from my husband all the time that I didn't know what a real job was. What I would give for him to walk a mile in my shoes back then. Love this
I really love this story, but only if every man felt this way.... thanks so much Dave for sharing your story with us all... GOD BLESS :) ....
Love It..
Only God knows....
well i had my belly full of all that now single , and please my self , my children are all grown up too ,and left the nest , so i am now no 1 .
and it is now my turn to spoil my self , it is fantastic , do what i want when i want , how i want as much as i want love it god bless , .....
Well come to my house and I will show you the underpaid maid sir! I do all of it and then some! I am fortunate to have a real man, unlike you, who appreciates all I do. But I also appreciate all he does. And both men and women are to be held to blame for the overpopulation, it takes two to make a baby, at least one of them should be smart enough or responsible enough to use protection! Guys put a condom on, girls make them, and all of you get control of your hormones!
Well I am one of those women that do all the that is mentioned above cook clean and etc. Plus I was a fulltime college student who graduated with (a) honor roll just last year. I also have a wonderful husband who was my supporter all the way through college. So if any of you smart asses men want to change places I will gladly take your place. Not to mention I don't even get the chance to take a shit without someone up my ass. Thanks dave for the story I really needed a good laugh.
SO worth the time it took to read it.
that's so funny, Robert and I laugh so much.
Haha
You make no sense!
Be careful what you ask God for!!!! 9 more months.. Woot ... lol
This is really funny man!
I love it! So true, men usually think women sit around and do nothing while they go to work and work all day but really the house and kids and pets don't take care of themselves and the meals don't cook themselves! This was an aweso...me story! Thanks so very much/1 I will definately share this one
my husband once accused me of not doing anything all day,just sitting on my ass watching tv. so the next day when he came from work he took a look around and said my god what happened here.his breakfast plate was still on the sofa,his clothes strewn in three rooms, floors filthy where he had tracked in mud ,sink full of dishes pots and pans on the stove,no supper on the table,all the animals needing to be fed and our needing help with homework and everything was a mess,my hair was not combed no makeup still in my night gown. I sweetly replied, I only did what you said,i sat on my ass and watched tv all day did I do a good job honey? I have never heard those words since. we have been married almost 47 years. oh yeah,this man was real mama"s boy.
I am a single mother of 2 teenage kids and they are old enough to help out with cleaning and doing things around the house. I am not well and I feel if the kids want to go somewhere or want spending money well the house work and stuff needs to come first. The story here was very good but when your not well I feel we all need to help each other out and pitch in That's what families do is to help one another.
thank god my mom taught me all the things a man should know about cooking an cleaning an sewing b ut now the making love part i taught myself so ifanetly i dnt need a woman to do some of those things except the making love part
This post is very interesting and worth reading
Very funny and I enjoyed it very much. However, most of today's wives don't even know where the ironing board is let alone the iron. Many don't make the beds or many of the other "duties" mentioned above.
Just my thoughts.
LOL served him right women have it hard at stay at home moms yes if able to work we all have and would but our families do come first
Most of the comments made me laugh
Wooooooowooooooo. That's very true. Some times God let us learn things the hard way. I just Love this post
well im a 30 yr old man born and raised in the south,was raised by a single mother that taught me to do everything a woman does in a houae and always told me to never wait for a woman to do everything, i am.a heavy equipment operator and the heat and humidity in alabama will really take it out od you, but marriage is about loving each other and meeting in the middle in every way, i was blessed with the BEST WOMAN A MAN COULD ASK FOR, treats me like a king because she is my queen, not sayin all men in the south have been brought up.to.be a real man.and hold the door for a lady, tell her how beautiful she is and be a true gentleman to.her but any sorry man that sits on his beer gut ass with a bag of chips and.a 6 pack and.relaxes while his lady takes care of THEIR HOME, THEIR KIDS, AND THINKS HE ISNT SUPPOST TO HELP HER WHEN SHE IS CLEARLY WORE OUT FROM.ALL SHE DOES FOR.HOME AND FAMILY then i.think.the sorry bastard shouldnt have clean clothes, unless he learns to.to turn theknob on the washer and dryer, and after a few wks of frozen dinners he just might appreciate all a housewife does, I gaurntee he will change his lazy ways, as men we get to geg off at a certain time everyday, what time does a mother-homemaker and ghe head cook get off??????I appreciate the WOMANOF MY DREAMS,THE MOTHER OF MY KIDS AND MY BEST FRIEND , i be damned if im gonna sit and watch my baby do it all,,,,what HAPPENED TO REAL MEN???Some think they get married to have a woman to cater to them, well this man right here isnt to tough to hug my wife and tell hee she is 1 HELL OF A WOMAN, we been together 10 1/2 yrs so Must be doin.it right!!! i hold her hand and help.her in any way possible, i tell her how amazin she is and she is the glue in this house.....Thanks baby for being the wife, mother and friend that you are,BABY IM AMAZED BY YOU,,, #COUNTRYBOYSARETHELASTGENTLEMENIN AMERICA
What a hoot. Most men think that staying home means laying on the couch. I know my husband God rest his soul did.
A stay at home mother paid for services rendered in just one year would be around 175, 000.00. So you loud mouth ungrateful slops need to start saving your nickels, dimes, and all of your cold hard cash. Or be start feeling like the luckiest man ever to have a woman that provides you with so much!
Thanks God I m very lucky my wife she does all I m set in couch waiting for the food
getting in table she treats me like a king ?
yes I try to help my wife as much I can its 50-50 to be equal for a coupler to respect each other and raise a family one hand washes other like they say both when I got marry
we say for better or for worse the min we have to respect each other work together to raise a happy family because my wife she s not a slave is parte of my life Amen
Boy, you guys take a cute joke and try to have a serious discussion about life from it. SMH.
Well after reading this entire thread, I have even more appreciation for my dear husband. I have four children. I'm sad to say that my oldest son was killed at the age of 20-which was 10 years ago. We started with a "ready made family". I already had 2 kids when we started dating and by the time we were married they wete ages 9 and 5. Then we had 2 more within 2years. We did it all together. I didn't work those first those first 3 years. He paid for me to finish my degree and we both worked full time taking care of everything. We had some rough times during the early years but 21 years later we are still in love and doing the best wr can. He's not perfect but he treats me good. Always helping out and asking me if need anything before he walks out the door. Now that I'm pretty much diabled, i haven't worked in 3 years. He takes care of the finaces and we do the household together. I make sure his dinner is ready when he gets home and that the house is tidy. Now that tbe last 2 kids are in college, though they still live at home, it's just he and I most of the time. We enjoy each other and laugh alot through the good and the bad.
thank you all for sharing. my marriage hove not been one to talk about. i had hell on my hand from 3 to 4 yrs since i have been married. right now i wanted out. in just wish i had a caring , loving, understanding husband who appreciated what i did and the woman he married. i have done those things for many years b 4 i started to work for my self. i have been married 4 bout 19 to 20 yrs now and things are getting worse the more i stay in this marriage. i just want out!
It never seems to sink in does it? Nothing gets done by itself!
I'm a 50 year old single woman & would Love to be able to PROVIDE for my Husband and know that God gave me a Man that Loved me Regardless of what he has to do.
been there done that to painfull dont try it!!

WHY DO YOU STAY IF IT'S THAT HORRIBLE?? you are just adding to your own misery as you are the ONLY one who can change things!
Never pray for anything unless you are sure you really need it. Looks can be very deceptive indeed!
GOD is so good!GOD is awesome!!
We are different...for a reason..Viva la difference !!!!!! God knew what he was doing...and understand something people..to complain about and backbite your spouse is to supply doubt and anger into your marriage..it can grow...you have what you speak..to speak ill of your spouse is to Cut Yourself Down...after all YOU PICKED EM RIGHT ?
i love it!!!! just cause a woman doesn't work outside the doesn't mean she does nothing...Sorry being at home means taking care of the house, having wash done, If dogs a involved they need to be walked....your always picking up something. once the kids are in school MOM can get everything except wash inside of a couple hours, LOOK OUT THE KIDS JUST CAME HOME and its MOMMY I WANT THIS, MOMMY I DONT WANT TO DO HOME WORK and what put their clothes?????? never happen......lololol
You forgot about taking care of the children when they all get sick and pass it on to each other, being up all night giving medicine out at different times, stripping beds and changing sheets because they've vomited on them, and not getting any sleep yourself. Cutting the grass
, weeding and trimming the yard.
Patching and painting the walls. Dusting, scrubing floors, cleaning windows, scrubbing screens for the windows. Gardening. We are so unappreciated for all that we do. Now in this story , " he " gets to see how ut is to carry a child for 40 weeks and give birth to the child. P.S. Hope it's triplets! And he has to stay in his wife's body til they graduate! She needs the break!
It's even worse when the wife is expected to work AND take care of ALL the household chores inside and out. What I wouldn't give to be able to stay at home.
What should they have .....Puppies?...
well i do most of that AND work a full-time job...
I've got news for you....it ain't ONLY women that make babies love, if that were the case they wouldn't need a fella to get them pregnant!
By the way Mr Anonymous, in addition to my comment immediately above, I think you're a total knob, a brainless one at that, and to the one saying "can't women go to the clinic for that", you're also a complete retarded knob! And to both of you.....Please, DO NOT EVER breed yourself, lest some poor little kid ends up taking after you, which they probably will if they have your genes you pair of imbeciles.
Not all situations are the same, take for example i work nightshift my wife is unemployed everytime i come home i have to start from zero she cant evenprepare food for heself she wants me to bring takeaways. The worst part every weekend i dont find her home she comes in 4AM. So ladies pliz try to look at things with two eyes otherwise some of your comments are a pain to us because this is a true story.
Brilliant
I have a very close friend who not only works full time, but she comes home and gets the dinner, does all the usual household chores, shopping, is expected to work on her husband's business with the online marketing, website building and maintenance, leaflet drops in their local area, the course administration while he sits on his bum all day watching TV waiting for clients to fall in his lap. He doesn't lift a finger to market the business and doesn't even make her a coffee for when she gets home from work, let alone prepare dinner. She is up until 3am some mornings working on his business, as well as working full time. Basically the man is useless and before the men on this forum diss me for sounding like a nan hater, I'm not. I have a brother who gets his wife's dinner on for when she gets home and I know of other situations where the woman is lazy and the man does everything, but sadly this isn't the case for my friend with the lazy husband.
great God.
You never really know what a person is going through until you walk a day I'm their shoes. Or I'm this case barefoot for nine months. I don't envy my husband. Though he God to work, comes home and sits wile I'm still going. I have four kids who help out.
It was really good and made men realize what is to be house wife.
No one, neither man nor woman, likes feeling taken for granted by their partner. Instead of telling them to not "complain," have a grown up conversation about your feelings. I'll bet there are a lot of men who would love to write a piece on how their wives take their contributions for granted, too. Neither approach will strengthen a marriage, though.
yep did it all went back to school, careaker of a sick moms worked full time job, As I look back, all I can say is THANK YOU JESUS for carrying me when I just couldn't anymore. I was sorry that I dint train my hubby better lol for he is still waiting for me to do it all after 52 years, Nope I don't have FOOL written on my forehead lol
Loved this cheered me uo amen x
I was a nurse for 30 years, worked shifts etc. and raised kids. My husband was military so it was hard but that's life - we had a nice home, clothes, holidays etc. because we could. We divorced and I still worked and never was a stay at home mum. The kids are now grown up and have their own lives, I'm remarried to a wonderful man, we still work and do 50/50 of everything from housework to shopping.
Raising families is hard work and I look back and wonder how I did it with a full time, demanding job but they were planned babies and I took leave entitlement after they were born so could be home for a few months. Child care was pre arranged with my family before I returned to work...if I couldn't have this option, would not have planned my pregnancies...For centuries, it has been viewed upon as the woman who primarily cares for the children and despite equality, mothers do stay home with the kids. Nothing to stop you getting your glad rags on and having a girly night out to boost your confidence or arrange a sitter and go out with hubby. Sometimes just a quiet 'child free' evening helps. I'm a believer of if the flicker in the marriage burns out as you're both shattered and pre occupied with work/kids etc. could spell disaster. Relationships need work from both parties whether you have kids or not :)
I always worked full time too, and still did all of that and usually we had two or three foster kids with us. Their parents couldn't seem to fit them into their live!
That is so true, I am mom, dad, work full time and keep up with my house (sort of). I do my best anyway. And I raised a very good kid who was taught to respect and expect respect. He is now anti drug, just graduated high school and wants to be in law enforcement. I have been at my job for 26 yrs, own my home, and have raised a great kid, so men need to just stop crying and be a man. And all you women that have a man, you need to appreciate them and not take them for granted, because that is such a blessing.
I have to reply in defense of the one saying that stay at home moms are not what the story says. So are, but so few. Most are lazy, don't raise their kids, and even some are druggies. That person is not wrong. And some are total materialistics who sit home and can't wait for their man to bring them home money to just run out and spend it faster than he can bring it home.
I have taught my son to treat a lady like a lady because that's what they deserve. But ladies really.....you need to start acting like ladies again. Clean up your houses, clean up yourselves, clean up your children, and most of all clean up your potty mouths and raise your kids and stop letting people on the streets raise them, or welfare raise them.
I am a mom, dad, and keep the house up all on my own. I own my house, have worked at my same job for 26 yrs and have raised a beautiful and respectful son who I am very proud of. People need to get a grip on themselves and make this world a good place again, instead of what it is today. And by the way, I am a woman.
Don't sit and take that and be miserable, it only makes your daughter miserable as well I am sure. Not to mention teaching her that is how a relationship is supposed to be. I know it is scary to think of being a single mom, as I am a single mom. But me and my son are ok and we are happy and we love each other and are best friends. We are barely ok financially, but WE ARE OK. Material things are not everything, raising them right and teaching them to respect people and themselves and having a high self esteem and being happy are everything. Make yourself happy and move on, you will learn how to be ok. Do you consider yourself ok now? Because I sure don't.
This is a funny story.Yes it is true that men really don't think women do any thing but lay around eating candy and watching soaps all day.If they could walk in the wife's shoes just one day they would hopefully understand how much she does in one day.Also added work if she works outside the home as so many women have to now just to make ends meet.We as women have a double job and it is very hard to do so without wearing out.It truly helps if the man helps out but in most cases they don't understand what the women of the house goes thru every day to clean,cook,take care of children and of course her man in the bedroom.
I enjoyed this posting & had to chuckle; even though we have no children, after I come home from my 8-10 hr. day (his is 8) I continue to make dinner, clean up, do chores around the house. Weekends I provide a 'honey-do' list & the faster he finishes the more time he spends with me. Women are just better at time management - period.
How about if you do both as father and mother at the same time. Go out and work for an income and come home to fix home chores then take care of everything!
My Ex expected me to work 2 full time jobs and keep a spotless house. To go along with all of that he thought he had all the money in the world. 1 check went to all the fees of over drafts then I had to pay bills and all the cash advance places back. I was so broke. When he cleaned house he would take his arm and clear everything to the floor. he would pour bleach on my work clothes. With no money for new ones I look like crap. He would call me nasty names and trash me then keep me up at nights demanding to know who I slept with and how we did it I told him I am older I had a life before I met him plus 2 kids. He was taking pain pills plus drinking 2 24 packs of beer then wanting steak and fried potatoes and onions every night for supper then I would half to take him 20 minutes away to the ER because he ran out of pain pills because he sold them to buy whiskey. He expected me to be super woman I am not I am just human.
I love what you told that imbecile.
It takes responsibility from both to work something out. Between two parents things workout better, if you are not ready to have children and carry the overload of outside job and home don't do it. Sure couples have children out of love for each other but it take for the two to work together. I have seen many man work their hearts out to come home to a dirty home and dirty children while the wife does nothing but complain also have seen very hard working mothers with outside jobs and the responsibility of the home and children while the husband sits around, gets drunk or high and does nothing, remember it takes two to tango and it takes much love for each other to work things out but I do say to does women who have lazy crapy man don't get pregnant!! TRAIN the man to do his part if not kick him out!! and you man if you have a lazy, dirty, drunk or crackhead for a woman, either use rubbers and stay there or get the hell out!! why bring disfunctional children and put up with all that crap and complain about it. Open your eyes, think with your heads (man I'm talking about the one on your necks) women hold a nickle between your legs and don't let go of it and think with your head to not your vagina!!! Problem solved!!
I like it. And the last part was the most funiest.
awesome..great story..and so inspiring I shared it to my husband so that he will realized how hard to stay at home..so proud to be MOM of four KIDS..thank God!!
Dumb. Only women like this story.
So true, all men think that women have an easy life, now they will think twice
I would even say the key issue is not doing all that housework for one day, but doing it day in and day out for many years. That is not easy and for the most part, it is unappreciated.
You don't suppose he figured out that being a stay at home mom is not a cake walk... You think?
lord I wish it could really happening.So funny. ~:{)-[<
We sometimes forget and take our spouses for granted. even after the change here, we still take the situation for granted.
I'm thrilled he came up pregnant, let him complain again! Lol!
i wish that this could really take place cause some men need to know how it feels to be a woman and what we go through
you enlighten mans mind to be more responsible.
I did not think I could laugh that hard. Oh boy, if men had to experience giving birth they would appreciate a woman so much better.
Story of my life and worked 11 hrs a day. Had to start laundry and other things before leaving for work at 6:00 - 6:30 each day! Keep house perfect!
I love being a man, i knew where this was going. A womans work is never done, giving birth oooh no
No One Has A Greater Sense Of Humor Than GD. And Life holds Second Place Very Funny And pleasurable Reading. : )
I'am stay @ home disabled NANA, Nobody better ever say anything bout me not working, cuz, thats 1 place i'd rather b, than collecting 1 little S. S. check a month and suffering, like i'am, i'd work 2 (TWO) jobs if i could. S.S. doesen't pay enough to live on.
comfortably,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,as i speak.
Great story...
I used to work, I was a secretary and I was a personal one to the Bank of Scotland, but when I got married I had 3 children, and see to the home, and my husband used to think that all I did was watch soaps every day, haha, I wish I had the radio on and sing along while is was cleaning etc, and preparing meals for the evening etc, and he my now ex- used to ask what have I been doing, until I went in to hospital, and thgen he realised what HAD TO BE DONE. but afterwards so realised what I had to do.
Absolutely love this!
Thank you I've just learned to appreciate (again) what I have. There isn't really a greener grass over the fence
To all you divorced, lazy, bra burning dikes, I do both a job and raise my family, and find it quite wholesome. I have no sympathy for those who sit and bitch. You were all part of it! Don't blame others for your short comings, Take responsibility and someday you will find happiness. You are all foolish to think it is all the mans fault!
Love this one!
It's not having what you want, but wanting what you have! And 35 yrs later, my hubby is the "stay-at-home-one" and has said at least 500 times in 2-yrs, "I never actually realized what all you did do to keep a decent house; raise three children including all doctor/dental appts, parent-teacher conferences, girl scout meetings, sports practices, games, and fundraisers; work full-time in a professional field, make everyday meals for five people as well as plan, prepare, and host up to 40 people for holidays, birthdays, weddings, and any other special occasion thrown your way, school dances, proms, and talent shows; and everything else required to keep the household running and looking good! I always thank him for recognizing my hard work, but also always remind him that he didn't have it so easy himself and that I am still truly thankful for his many contributions to keeping our family happy, secure, safe, entertained, educated, and wanted. Our marriage/relationship has been and basically still is fairly "old-fashioned with the wife/woman assuming the stereotyped role of being responsible for the interior of our home and the day-to-day needs of the children and the husband/man assuming the stereotyped role of being responsible for making sure there was a home for his wife to take care of and to raise his children in. We have NEVER taken a car to a mechanic to be fixed; called a plumber for a leak or clog; hired a landscaper or logger; dry waller/painter; electrician; boat mechanic; bought from a store Salmon, deer, moose, king crab, or halibut! And I still feel that he's the world's best husband/male. And he still makes me feel that I am the world's best wife/female.
Hi My name is DIANA from canada just want to share my experience with the world on how i got my love back and saved my marriage… I was married for 4 years with 3 kids and we lived happily until things started getting ugly and we had a fights and arguments almost every time… it got worse at a point that he filed for divorce… I tried my best to make him change his mind & stay with me cause i loved him with all my heart and didn't want to loose him but everything just didn't work out… he moved out of the house and still went ahead to file for divorce… I pleaded and tried everything but still nothing worked. The breakthrough came when someone introduced me to this wonderful, great spell caster spellsolutiontemple11@gmail.com who eventually helped me out… I have never been a fan of things like this but just decided to try reluctantly cause I was desperate and left with no choice… He did special prayers and cast a love spell on him. Within 7 days he called me and was sorry for all the emotional trauma he had cost me, moved back to the house and we continue to live happily, the kids are happy too and we are expecting our fourth child… I have introduced him to a lot of couples with problems across the world and they have had good news… Just thought I should share my experience cause I strongly believe someone out there needs it… You can email him at: spellsolutiontemple11@gmail.com or you can call him +2348100537984
I had a very hard time believing in love magic spells so i felt strange even clicking on any spell site. The term love spells seemed silly to me normally but after seeing Doctor agba’s e-mail on a trusted blog, it made a great deal of sense. I literally thought there was no way I could have my lover back. Well, after contacting Doctor agba he gave me a lot of confidence and told me he would help me bring back the man I thought I had lost forever in just 48 hours. It was very surprising how my lover started calling me to tell me how much he missed and can’t live without me after Doctor agba had helped me cast a very powerful spell. I count myself very lucky to have ever found Doctor agba’s mail and to have even had the courage of contacting him for help.Doctor agba didn’t tell me exactly what I wanted to hear like 99% of other spell casters will do. He was very sincere with me, this was what really shocked me and made me believe he was real. Thank you so much Doctor agba for your marvelous work. His e-mail is;agbaspellhome@live.com just so maybe you need a good and sincere spell caster.
Why are you yelling at retaining seawalls? Learn to spell! "masculine lesbian"/DYKE.
God is awesome. And He can do all things.
Just an awesome lesson from GOD. I'm a stay at home mom,and YES I DO get said so many things,like "you stay home and I work so hard.." from the husband.
why he did not ask his wife about her daily activities ?? ..no need to go through this temptation .
sHAm
I LOVE IT, JUST SO CUTE AND TRUE, BUT FUNNY, I ALWAYS SHARE YOUR PAGES, THERE GREAT <3, thank u and God Bless u Dave, love Tracy Lawrence
After being in relationship with my boyfriend for six years,he broke up with me,I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to someone online and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back but I am the type that never believed in spell, I had no choice than to try it, I mailed the spell caster, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before three days, that my ex will return to me before three days, he cast the spell and surprisingly in the second day, it was around 4pm. My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that happened, that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him, that was how we started living together happily again. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only real and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem. Contact him now for your relationship or marriage problems or any DISEASE via this email ofuaspiritualtemple@gmail.com
A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife stayed home. He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed, "Dear Lord, I go to work every day and put in 8 hours while my wife merely stays at home. I want her to know what I go through, so please create a trade in our bodies for one day."
The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman. He lay in bed while his mate got up, packed his lunch and drove to work. He then slaved for hours over Facebook, then took a well earned break to go out to have coffee with friends.
He then came home and to grab something out of the freezer and chucked it into the oven for supper, cut a salad and returned to slaving over Facebook. After supper he ran the dishwasher and wiped the kitchen counter. At 9 p.m. he was exhausted and though his daily chores weren't finished (and he had no intention of ever finishing them), he went to bed where he gave not the slightest thought to making love (he hardly ever did, so nothing new there).
The next morning he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and said, "Lord, I don't know what I was thinking to ask for this for one day only. Please, oh please, make this trade permanent."
Thank you Lord u do answered his prayers, men really think that we only sit on our butts all day.That was a lessoned he learned.They should go through pregnancy also. lol.
Only women make babies, really!? You must be a man to make such an inane comment. Obviously a retard although that's an insult to any one born with learning difficulties. My ex husband was just the same because I had 2 girls it was my fault, even though it's the male that gives either an x or y chromosome and he called me stupid! I worked full and part time jobs, did all the house work, gardening etc looked after sick children and when I was ill I still had to do it whilst my ex stayed in bed at weekends because he had worked all week. Apparently I had a house fairy that did everything. I put up with mental abuse until I decided I didn't want my girls to grow up with him. Like you I've decided to remain anonymous, but not because I'm ashamed of what I've said like you should be. This is the 21st century not the 19th!
its fine to be a stay at home mom when your kids are babies but once they are school aged u should get to work i kno a few stay at home moms who complain they are always broke but teir husband pays for everything tv cell phones spirts the rent evwrythingg it makes me sick how they complain they r just lazy bitches who need to fet a jobh
funny...carefull what you ask for...
Interesting about a third of that work could be done by the husband or kids if chores were doled out. The bills could be paid online or by phone. The dog doesn't get washed everyday. The laundry isnt a daily task. There is such a thing as a school bus. if this is the daily tasks of this wman, she.manages poorly.
True and funny story to learn the lesson that we all have our part of work that we should not understimate our partners, because every role we play is an important part of our daily life...God knows where to put our specialties best!!!
Awesome!
I raised 5 children without their father and I don't want to see anymore babies. Grandchildren can stay for a few nights or maybe a week and they are going home. I have had enough of crying, sick babies and all of the other things involved. I made this perfectly to all of my 5. I have looked at them for a little while, but they were picked up soon after. I refused to let any of my children make me a slave to their duties. I didn't have anyone to help me like that. I was so happy to get all of them grown and out. I felt that I finally had a chance to live my life. They understood and my youngest grandchild is now 13 years old. Most are grown. Can't say it was enjoyable. I loved and took care of my kids, but now it is my time. Lots of men don't want to help the wife. They will come home and get into their favorite chair and look at tv while the wife works all day and slaves trying to catch up. This is no good.
Thank you God!!!
dear friend, U can get it back, make yourself a collage of what YOU want, even small things, like a bubble bath , go to a counselor if ya can ,my visits are only 25.00 and I go weekly, when I get down feeling she tells me to put on my erin brocovich from movie role & speak my mind, I have gotten out of a crappy 10 yr long relationship and its the best thing i could have done, i had to temp live with son for a yr but I am so driven to be me & do for me now. i do yoga, i wake when i want to, i get involved with helping other women at a local battered womens shelter, I have a small place to live but its mine with No disrespect from him anymore, I dont have someone degrading me or making me less of a woman with his nasty comments, nor do I have to worry when hes not home till 3 am when he gets off work at 5pm and then lies continously, its all about me now. You are stronger than U know my friend, so go see a divorce attorney & get your alimony money & what you have coming for all that time together, & start over for you & to show your daughter that she doesnt have to settle & stay where its not good for her to be ever in life. You can have happiness & inner love for yourself again, But its you that has to really want it....please keep us all posted, its scary to do but remember you are strong lady & can do this !!
dont forget have their periods, cramps etc every 28 days Having to wear a bra daily & high heels, then having their bodies change permantley after child births, being awake all nite w. sick crying child & still having to go to work the following day. lets have him also have to go thru... dont forget the nites when she dont come home cause shes been out drinking with her friends at the strip bars & then having to listen to her lie about where shes been, all the while worrying if shes in hospital or jail ! and then after like the above story still having time energy to have sex & please his partner not just himself ! i would love to see a man go thru a week being a woman & all she does oh yeah dont forget about looking sexy & pretty when he gets home
Hahaha...my partner and I cannot stop laughing at this most humorous story...Gotta love it
Ha Ha I know plenty of womay home every day and don't do a quarter of these things.
way to go i like this do whatever you have to do to make them understand
that was awesome nicely done
Maybe some of you wises who think all the home work you do is harder should get sick and tired of this and ask God to do what he did to this guy to you. I bet you will do like the guy did.
So many posts are from mothers who raised their sons to know how to do housework.Know
Ing how and actually doing work are not always the same. My husband knows how to do things, but he won't even empty the dishwasher, unless he's in the mood :(
Ahh yes, Love, Game, Match. There is a God 👙
Fasting is much easier while you're asleep and sleeping all day doesn't invalidate the fast. Increases stamina
Haha roflmfao. This is so fkn perfect. Made my DAY.
