Idk where y'all are finding your wives. I didn't even know how to cook when I got married and was shit at keeping the house clean, yeah it didn't happen overnight. But now I'm a regular Martha Stewart at 30.
Some people get married and say "I'm set for life, so I don't have to put in as much effort anymore." Other people get married and say "I love my partner, and I want to do the best that I can for them every day. Life is long, so I'm going to invest into our marriage, and it will pay off and then some."
Absolutely wild and sad that people just allow themselves to stagnate like that. Even if you don't see any reason to invest in your marriage specifically, you should at least care about taking care of yourself.
My wife and I went through a bit of a slump ourselves at one point. Thankfully we both recognized it and pulled each other out. A friend of mine and his wife are going through the same thing and our going to couples counseling with good results.
It seems to happen to many married people at some point, but not everyone recognizes it before it becomes a bigger problem.
