She's Definitely Ungrateful

Does your husband sigh dramatically after doing the dishes? Does he mention—repeatedly—that the dog appreciates him more than you do? Does he keep a color-coded spreadsheet of every time you failed to say "thank you"? Then congratulations. You might be married to Steve. In this hilarious companion to "He's Definitely Controlling Me," the tables turn as Janet writes from her husband's perspective—documenting his deeply held belief that he does absolutely everything while receiving absolutely no acknowledgment in return. Featuring: 400 documented instances of insufficient gratitude (including "I cleaned the entire kitchen" / Response: "K") A color-coded spreadsheet with 4,847 entries of unacknowledged acts of service The complete philosophy of martyrdom sighing Testimony from the house, the car, and the spreadsheet itself A comparative analysis proving the dog is more grateful than the wife Couples therapy transcripts, courtroom proceedings, and support group meetings for Husbands of Insufficiently Grateful Wives (HIGW) The fantasy "Thank You Letter I'll Never Receive" A scientific quiz to determine if your wife is, in fact, ungrateful An official Certificate of Martyrdom (suitable for framing in the garage, where husbands are allowed to have feelings) Steve does the dishes. He walks the dog. He charges the Tesla every night because she never plugs it in. He remembers where everything is. He handles the crises she never knows about. He maintains the entire infrastructure of their life together. And what does he get in return? "K." One letter. For a lifetime of service. This is his story. Written by his wife. Using his own spreadsheet against him. Which, honestly, proves his point: he can't even get credit for the documentation of not getting credit. Part love letter, part roast, part genuine reflection on the invisible labor that keeps relationships running—this book is for every couple who has ever argued about who does more, who notices less, and whose turn it is to acknowledge the other person's existence. Perfect for: Wives who respond to everything with "K" (you know who you are) Husbands who feel deeply unseen (and have the data to prove it) Couples who can laugh at themselves Anyone who has ever sighed louder than necessary after completing a household task Dog owners who suspect their pet is the only one who truly appreciates them The dog gets it. The dog always gets it. Maybe after reading this, you will too.
