I think you can analyze all you want but for the most part I call bullshit. The SO that continually "forgets" or does a half-assed job is manipulating the situation, whether he even realizes it or not. In the back of his head, he knows that if it doesn't get done or if he does a poor job of it, wife will do it for him. Look at it this way - he's training his wife for the long haul. He's willing to put up with a few years of "nagging" in order for you to eventually be trained to just do the tasks yourself.
