Sorry to hear you have this issue. Obviously everyone else's suggestion's are right - about talking to your husband so he is clear what the problem is. If however, he ignores that and doesn't think he should change, I would be tempted to just look after yourself and the children, cook and eat and exercise with them,
don't cook for him and don't do his laundry. I know this may come across as petty, but actions often speak louder than words.
Good luck x
I have to agree to this. Our home agreement was that I would prepare all the lunches (we have our main meal at lunch and small meal at night) and hubby would empty dishwasher. He decides two weeks ago to no longer do this. So I said, great, I will no longer be cooking the lunches during your work week and please do not ask me. About two days later we go back to the previous arrangement. In my opinion, I thing emptying the dishwasher is a reasonable request, and we discussed it initially - it was all agreed.
Perhaps consider asking him down for lunch 2 days in the week, he can choose on a Sunday which two days, diarise it and he will have to make his own work excuses to make it work. It could be that he has a global team call at 12pm. I seem to recall that this was a key time when all time zones could meet. This could mean your bi weekly lunch would be at 1:30. Either way, involve him, to a reasonable extent, but also sometimes having something at stake helps nudge along a course of action you prefer.
