I'm really worried about my husband but also am finding it really difficult to live with him. I don't mean that in a way that i don't love him but i'm starting to wonder if he has attention deficit disorder (not a problem if he has but need to deal with some issues)
For as long as we have been living together he does things that have driven me mad to be honest, for example i came home one day to the hot water tap left running in the bathroom, it must have been runnung for at least 3 hours. He is always continually leaving the front door open when he comes in and the worst was the other morning i came downstairs to the front door open so it must have been open all night. I went mad at my husband as we have an almost 3 year old and i just thought what would have happened if he had got up in the night while we were sleeping. He also left the side gate wide open the other day so anyone could have walked into our back garden. He doesn't fully turn taps off so they are always trickling so i turn them off and to be honest it's tiring having to feel that i have to check everything myself. He leaves cupboard doors and drawers open.
It is making me start to feel that it is more than simply just forgetting, he puts it down to stress but i'm not so sure. He is diagnosed as dyslexic. The thing is all of these things are making it difficult to live with asi feel i can't relax in my own house and have to keep checking things are secure. I brought this up to my husband in a calm manner and he went mad at me and went funny. I said that i wasn't being funny i meant it in a way to help. He has always said he struggled at school.
Not really sure what else to do as it's a conflicting issue. Obviously i want to be there for him but i don't want my safety or more importantly my childrens safety compromised with the house not being secure.
