Grab your tea, your blanket, and maybe your rosĂŠ, because today's Tea Break is for the women who are exhausted from carrying relationships on their backs.
We're talking about the men who expect girlfriend treatment while behaving like they're the prize... or worse, the princess.
From weaponised incompetence and the invisible mental load to why responsibility is far more attractive than empty words, we're unpacking the difference between wanting a partner and wanting another mother.
This isn't about expecting perfection or keeping score. It's about showing up, taking initiative, and understanding that healthy relationships are built by teammates, not one person doing all the emotional and domestic labour while the other contributes little more than vibes.
So, if you've ever found yourself thinking, "Why does this grown man need reminding to act like an adult?"... this one's for you.
Grab a cuppa, settle in, and let's spill the tea.
