I hate nagging and resent that I have to do it then he gets mad when it's been three weeks since I've asked him to do something
Not necessarily nagging, but I definitely need a little push sometimes!
Hmmm...probably most of the time, but there are those occasions where I will just do something without having to be asked.
Yep, but I know nagging does not make him do it.. I end up doing it myself
Yes, my family tend to nag at me a lot in order to get me to do housework. But I'm not a person that nags or likes to be nagged. I prefer doing housework at my own time, as long as it is done, the result is the same.
It depends what it is...cleaning no but if he needs to make a doctors appointment yes.
No need. Self-motivated.
Not usually - having a todo is like a sounding bell in my head. If I know someone is relying on me to get something done - then the potential for letting them down is what motivates me.
Not usually. Unless its putting my dishes away ;-)
"Nagging" is the repeated reminder or request to do something by your spouse/partner, usually revolves around something they can do "themselves" but for whatever reason "feel" like you have to do it, should do it or need to do it.
Yes. I try to do chores on my own but my cleanliness standards are way lower than they should be so it's less automatic
Not nagging, but sometimes a little encouraging when I'm feeling a bit lazy or I'm procrastinating
No it doesn't it just makes them drag the issue on. On purpose just to annoy you
No but is happens anyway. I do work in my own time
only because i'm forgetful, not because i don't want to do it. If she gets it on my calendar/todo list then it gets done
