Are you the spoiler or the spoiled?

Im bored at work... Just got a call from my GF and she asked which clothes for her to wash, and I was thinking how lucky I am. She spoils me.

So my question is, are you spoiled or the one who spoils and how so? It doesnt have to be your significant other, could be a parent, sibling, friend, etc..

When I get home from work, I change into shorts and a tshirt and leave my work clothes on the floor or on the bed. She picks up after me. I plop my butt on the couch and watch TV. Ill cook (only because I dont like her cooking..lol), but she will serve me dinner on the couch and clean up after dinner.
When its time to go to sleep, shell give me foot rubs til I doze off..
Shell let me enjoy all my hobbie$$ without objection, lets me go anywhere I want to..Yeah, Im spoiled!

My ex-wife did the laundry. That was kinda nice.

As much as I hate laundry, I'm happy that I don't have to ask permission for car mods anymore. And I don't have to coordinate my meals (timing or menu) with anyone else.

Depends. My wife does almost all of the cooking, a lot of the routine cleaning, and laundry.

I do almost all of the renovations, all of the car maintenance, and a good portion of the yard work. I would say that if you broke it down and charted hours over time, she clearly does more consistent work, but when I'm on a project, it could be dozens of hours. When I was doing our floors (800is sq ft of hardware and subfloor, plus removal of carpeting and laminate through about 3000 sq ft of our house) it was several weeks where I'd work my day job, and come home around 5:30 and work till 11 pm on the house.

A casual observer would just see that I come home most days, work out, and then put my feet up.

I do all the car maintenance (or pay a shop to do it) also, but dont really consider that a chore. More like a hobby, for me anyway. She makes a really big deal when I change the oil on her car, like she owes me big time..it helps to do it on a hot day so you can really work up a sweat and look like you went through hell to change that oil
