Obviously, you don’t have the ultimate responsibility to bother yourself for others when you are single and you have only one responsibility which is you and maybe your parents.
A lot of people run away from marriage when it comes to responsibilities. Some people prefer to be single than to take the responsibilities of marriage.
Why do people run away or avoid marriage when it has to do with responsibilities? When you can easily negotiate with your partner on how to manage the affairs of the family.
They utilize their individual gifts and talents so they negotiate ways to divide household chores fairly. (Philippians 2:4)
Responsibilities in marriage should not be one sided, it’s something both partners come together to tackle in order to provide a reasonable solution to their “Needs” and “Wants”.
It’s a struggle that needs the cooperation of both couples. Whoever is financially stable takes the front lead regardless of the sex. This is what a happily married life should be or look like and not to step out to announce to people how you run your home. The finances might be coming from the husband or the wife or even from both partners but nevertheless, it doesn’t warrant discrimination or abuse. It’s something that has to do with the affairs of the blessed union, regardless of where it’s coming from but no one is meant to relax, leaving all the work load and responsibilities on one partner. Everyone needs to contribute in one way or the other.
Having responsibilities does not affect your social life but rather you do it nicely knowing that it won’t affect your family because that is your primary assignment the very moment you agreed to tie the knot with your partner.
However, as married people settle into their roles, their partnership allows them to meet-up with life’s demand together. Marriage offers partnership, someone with whom you can strategize with, share financial and parenting responsibilities with, do household chores and maintenance.
Sharing responsibilities means being on the same team and as a married couple you are on the same team, therefore make decisions and divide household responsibilities in a way that honors both people involved.
Galatians 6:2 says “bear one another burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ”.
Couples recognize their unique God given roles and abilities to manage everyday responsibilities. They work to reach an agreement on the question of household chores so that both partners feel satisfied with the distribution of responsibility.
