How do i get my boyfriend to do the odd jobs in the house?
Question:I bought my children a playgym to go outside. It needs building. But my boyfriend wont built it. Im not strong enough to build it myself. and i live in elderly neighbourhood, so there noone to help.
Answers:
Offer him sex for it, stand naked in front of him and play with yourself while he does it, buy him a bottle of Bushmills
tell him if he doesnt help you do it, you wont talk to him until he does. that usually works
Deny him any sexual favours until he complies.
Hi,sorry the only way is black mail or get an odd job man & show him up.Good Luck
What an ar*ehole. Let him read the replies to your question and that should shame him into it. If it doesnt then leave him!
You chose a guy who does not do certain things. HIstory and experience shows that if someone does not do it now, this is the way it is going to be.
So you either do it yourself and keep the boyfriend, or go find another boyfriend who is more in sync with you.
Good luck with that.
You could try bribery. Maybe withhold sex until it is done. Or threaten to ask a bloke you know has a crush on you to do it, promising to be eternally grateful to him if he does, and make your boyfriend jealous. But, the long and short of it is if you can't find anyone to do it, and your boyfriend just won't, you will have to just get yourself a bit stronger and do it yourself - you were the one who bought it after all. Did you ask him if he would do it BEFORE you got it? If so he should do it if he said he would. But if you got it without consulting him then ultimately it is your responsibility.
Just tell him since he won't build the gym for them to play on that it is quite okay. But then tell him since they need play time, he needs to bring them over to the park by himself and play with them for at least a couple of hours each day, so you can get other things done. Oh, he is tired after work? Too bad, the kids need quality time playing so start hoofing it over to the park, keep an eye on them and get involved with them so you can do stuff as well. Of course, if it would be easier, spend an hour putting the gym together once. Hmmm, what is simpler? If he still can't get the picture, find yourself a bf that will put it together.
Offer to pay him money to build it. He will probably build it and not accept the money.
Are they his children? If not, then you're well out of order.
If he is any kind of man at all if you start doing it by yourself he will come help you, especially if start to mess it up. Start it & have him check something you have done to see if it was done right, then he will start HELPING you. Alot of men do not like to do any work at home by themselves, be his assistant & build his manly ego while he is doing it & he will enjoy doing these things WITH you.
Do it yourself - you were the one who bought it.
Us blokes aren't just handymen that you can expect to put up curtains, redecorate rooms, and put together play sets whenever you ladies decide on a whim to buy something new you know.
However if he agreed to do it before you bought it, kick his azz until he does!
try threats,bribery and blackmail one of them is bound to work.
My friend got over a similar problem by making a start on the job in question and doing it so badly that her husband took it over just to show her how it was done. But I'm not promising it will work!
Theaten to get an expensive, hunky odd job man in while he's at work and he'll have to pay his bill. If that doesn't work go on sex strike until he does!
Jeep jeep is right, what a girl! common sense. Another trick to try, you say you live in an elderly neighbourhood, old men like nothing better than to impress a young girl, second to that they like to tell us young men how terrible we are! Let your most helpful neighbour know of your plight and kill 2 birds with one stone so to speak!
Have a go yourself honey - we women are not helpless, and you will be surprised at what you can do when you try. Anyway, if you make a hash of it you may prod his sense of chivalry. Don't forget to apologise for being too busy with this to make his tea and iron his shirts.
tell him do ya have to start an affair wit the window cleaner to get job's done around the house...don't worry he'll move
Try to know the man first if he is responsible enough to do such work at home
tell him to make it or you will stop doing his chores. if he wont do it why arnt you lying down some groung rules. tell him that his diner will no longer be ready for him and you arnt doing his washing.
is this his kid? make him, if he still doesnt you need to think if you want a slob for a boyfriend
Ask the milkman if you have one or the men on a local building site [go down there in your shortest skirt and brief top, look helpless,] with a bit of luck this boyfriend will get the message and clear off home to his mum. Worked for me..
Why not just suggest various ways and see if he can come up with various wa aswell, then maybe he will feel like he has ideas too. Sometimes nagging is not good, i know this one as we have all done it at some point, but it doesn't do the other person any good,. Maybe if you are clever through asking him what he thought, then maybe just maybe, he would be more inclined to help or feel inclined to be bothered lol?? Good luck !
