My partner and I are going on 2 years. When we met, he lived in a clean and tidy little studio, did his own meal prep, washing, basically could adult like the rest of us.
He has since purchased a house which my 2 teenage sons and I have moved in to. They all get along amazingly.
But... he’s turned freakin lazy. Doesn’t meal prep, doesn’t clean unless I leave a list, even then it’s a 50/50 hit and miss. We’ve lived here over a year and he’s vacuumed the house twice. He occasionally does laundry, but does a shit job. He washed my white wool jumper with new jeans.
I’m gone 7am -5pm. He works an even time roster and is home literally half the time. I’m SICK of nagging. I’m SICK of having the same conversation about it.
Considering my the relationship he has with the kids, and the fact we get along in every other way, is the fact he walks his dirty work boots over a freshly mopped floor worth calling it quits over? He has basically said, he’s not willing to raise his standards and I need to drop mine.
