I have been working 5 days a week whilst studying a masters alongside, I've been getting home from work cooking dinner, making my partners lunch for the next day, keeping on top of the washing and cleaning then going on to do reading or written work. I'm exhausted. I understand my partner has also been working but he gets to come home sit on the couch and basically not worry about anything.

He had a day off in the week and on my way home (1hr and a half) journey I messaged saying just how hungry I was thinking maybe he'd have something when I got home. Nope, nothing I had to again cook dinner, make snacks etc. In all honesty this did hurt me.

Yesterday was my one day off and I decided I'm gonna be super chilled and relax as uni + my job is getting exhausting. I ended up scrubbing the entire house it was filthy especially the bathroom so that took 3/4 hours. He was working and came home but had to be called back in the night. He arrived home at 6am and obviously I was sleeping. This morning I woke up trying to cuddle him and I get a lecture of he doesn't know whats happened to me and how I've become so lazy that there was no food prepared for him coming home. There was food in for a sandwich or some microwave food I didn't leave him to starve I just maybe didn't think because I didn't know what time or if he was coming back before his shift today. I'm feeling incredibly underappreciated for being called lazy for just wanting 1 day to chill. AITAH?
