He's a lazy knob op and he will be a lazy knob without a comfortable billet if he doesn't pull his socks up.

Next time he's off, hand him the baby have a bath and get dressed for town and announce you're having a days shopping withmum/ sister / friend.

Yes you're living with a lazy knob.

My DH got up at 6.00 so I could have a lie. Brought me coffee in bed at 8. Handed DS to me around 9.00 and has since cut the hedges, done the shopping and is now digging the garden so I can plant my vegetables this afternoon while he takes DS for a walk in the forest.

Nothing wrong with a lazy bank holiday but you shouldn't run around doing everything. Sounds like he's a lazy knobber if he hasn't done laundry/washing up in 3 weeks.

You need to talk to him and point this out, if he doesn't change then you need to reevaluate.

Why are you letting him get away with doing nothing? Why are you doing it all? Just stop. You're being a martyr and he is being a lazy dickhead. Go out to a friend's house and tell him you're not coming back till he starts pulling his weight. Stop washing his clothes. Stop cooking his meals. Or just get rid of him.

Can I just say - I'm in bed. I put s wash load on and have brushed my teeth. That's IT.

I am not lazy. I work full time. Monday-Friday 8:30-4. Then, on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday evenings I work in my second job 6:30-9:30. At weekends, I work all day. I'll be at work later too.

How DARE some of you label someone sitting down as lazy? He might be - I don't know; he might be an unemployed lazy arse who does nothing - but someone else running around like a blue arsed fly doesn't make someone sitting down 'lazy.'

I won't be labelling you lot lazy when I go to work later so why am I lazy, or the OPs boyfriend? It might - might be that he works just as hard as she does.

I'm labelling him as lazy because he's never used the cooker, washer, dishwasher or Hoover in three weeks. I presume they've eaten off clean plates and worn clean clothes...

PS - I'm also in bed, drinking a cup of tea that DH brought me. Wink

You're quite right Goldenmilk. I apologise. I just assumed that if this was the occasional behaviour of a normally hard working, non lazy, partner the OP wouldn't be posting about it on here.

he does work hard but why shouldn't the chores be shared?
