If you’re open to it I’d love to hear what your family looks like too?

Hi all, im Dan. I live in Pittsburgh PA and I am excited to join this community and better understand my partner’s mental load. I’m also excited for the opportunity to learn from others. Story time, I discovered this community last night. Was nervous to post. But today after work, my partner had dinner in the oven and she was doing some work on the balcony at the same time. She asked me to pull it out of the oven in ten minutes. I set a timer for ten, pull it out, and as it’s cooling, she comes over and asks “did you check if it was done?” Of course it wasn’t done. It had totally slipped my mind, I thought I was doing well enough just by pulling it out after ten minutes. Definitely my sign to make a post here. My partner fell in love with me for my kindness, my ability to have fun and make the most of any situation, and my reliability. It feels bad when I come up short on that third trait, so I am excited to learn from others here.
