Re: Venting thread- I've been struggling not to hate my husband.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh yes, he absolutely does the weaponized incompetence thing. This is a man with a background in STEM, who holds down a challenging job that requires a lot of focus and memorization. This same man acts differently at home, and frequently claims not to be able to solve basic household problems, or remember how to do certain tasks. He clings very firmly to this belief that he cannot clean a bathroom because he doesn't know how, or that he can't recall how to do ABC in order until I confront him very bluntly and ask him who stands over his shoulder and tells him what to do at work? When he's playing computer games that require him to collect X and Y before accomplishing Z, how does he remember how to do that?

Then he feels embarrassed and will reluctantly drag himself to Youtube or look stuff up and do the task. But it will happen again and again, because there's always some other tiny obstacle that he'll exaggerate as some impossible barrier to him doing household chores that I do every day, multiple times a day. He claims he doesn't want to be this way, and gets mad when I say that clearly he DOES, because if it truly bothered him, he'd just figure it out and do it without making a bunch of insulting, flimsy excuses.

This upsets him, because he can't get out of that logic, but he wants there to be an explanation for his sudden mental confusion about cleaning that isn't his fault. There isn't one. He keeps looking for one. I despise this kind of laziness and weakness.
