Working wife is too tired to clean the house before her husband's friends come to visit, then takes a stance and refuses to clean after he shuns her: ‘I just didn’t have the energy for more cleaning’

Guys, the meme is true: Adulting is hard, and the story you're about to read is proof of that.

Working a 9-5 is already cutting it close to the amount of time anyone can devote to just about anything every day, but the after-work household duties have to take the cake. At the most inconvenient times, you'll be required to clean out the fridge because all of the produce you intended to cook with went bad, and your husband has decided to host a fantasy football get-together for the third week in a row. If he wants to host guests, he gets to clean the house!

The woman in this next story decides to take a night to herself after a stressful day, only cleaning the absolute essentials in her house in the process. Her husband expected her to clean the house to an excessive degree, and she usually does, but the timing just wasn't great in this instance. Instead of being understanding, the woman's husband flips out on her and goes so far as to sleep on the couch to guilt her. Luckily, the woman isn't influenced by these childish tactics. She knows how valuable her helping hand is and refuses to let it be taken for granted.
