He's been here over a week. I don't like it. I need my space.

He shits 4 times a day (yes!) leaves the toilet seat up, uses my milk and tea bags, "Borrows" my fags, lounges across my sofa stays up all night watching music channels and sleeps in til now! Eats all my food and farts all the time. Hmm

I wouldn't mind but he doesn't work so never replaces anything! His fucking iPad is constantly on charge and he leaves all the lights and TVs on too!

I want him to leave but I don't know how to say it. I'm such a bitch on here I no but not like that in real life!

(P.s he's the father of my child too)

I don't know if this is light hearted or not Confused

So Am I BU to ask him politely to fuck off please?

He is a parasite.

If you had a tapeworm would you feel sorry for it and let it live in your intestine?
If you had nits would you feel guilty about killing them with insecticide?

Honey, I have two adult children living at home, and the rule is that if you use up the last of something, you replace it.
If he's eating her food snd helping himself to drinks over a week, he ought to be buying stuff to replace what he's scoffing.

He is a loser.

Get rid.

sandiy · 06/04/2014 13:49

Tell him he is risking your tenancy and cannot stay longer than 2 nights so he needs to leave as the landlord does spot checks.Or if you claim any benefits as a single person you are committing fraud I think by allowing him to essentially live with you.Either way show him the door.

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 06/04/2014 13:50

Sandi has a point, more than 4 days is considered as living with you, you could get in serious shit.

Just tell him you're not interested in a relationship with someone who behaves like a child and when would he like to have contact with the baby and take said baby OUT or to his Mum's or wherever so you get a break?

ProlificPenguin · 06/04/2014 13:53

How about telling him that you are off out and will drop him home on way?

Or go out and turn everything off, heating, ipad charger, lights etc take tea bags with you.

Goblinchild · 06/04/2014 14:44

PP, he'd just turn everything on again and forage for something else to eat.
He's an adult, he'd probably be quite happy at being left alone to do as he pleases.

ItsBritneyBitch · 07/04/2014 09:16

Thanks for all the replies. Even the funny one haha!

I didn't make up a friend I just asked him to leave he got his knickers in a twist about "how I don't want him there" but I stuck to my guns and said "you're right I don't want you here!"

He's coming round this morning so we can talk I've made a list of house rules and going to say he can only stay max 2 days a week!

The way he behaves now is the way he has grown up to be.
He isn't going to change just because you have told him to.
Woman up and get rid of him.

Hoppinggreen · 07/04/2014 09:39

Are claiming any benefits as a single parent? If so having him stay could cause you problems - quite aside from the problem of him being a useless waste of oxygen who is sponging off you.

AnyFucker · 07/04/2014 09:39

You are still giving this manchild houseroom then ?

You are being taken for a mug

deakymom · 07/04/2014 09:44

tell him its moving too fast and you need a bit of space? honestly you cant sub him for the rest of his life

GlaikitFizzog · 07/04/2014 09:53

Where does he live normally? Still with mummy?

I wouldn't give him a maximum number of nights, say no overnights. But if you want him to stay ask him to. Let yourself take charge, not him. Your home your rules. And until he is contributing he has no say.

Manchild, surprised he doesn't ask you to wipe his arse after his four shits a day.

Simile · 07/04/2014 10:28

So is he going to come round, give you a sob story, point out your faults then settle himself on the sofa with his ipad (then fart just to add insult to injury)?

Good point made about your benefits. They will be affected is he stays. Well done for tackling this directly, just don't let a woe-is-me tale compromise what you want.

NoodleOodle · 07/04/2014 12:48

Argh, I've just let my manchild cockodger gather his things and walk out. I borrowed money off a friend for milk, tea, and petrol, and haven't offered to buy the DP any beer. I can either sit here on my own, or text him to tell him I've bought him some beer (and not get petrol).

~sits by self~

~wonders why feel knot in stomach~

Cocklodger is a new one on me, will remember that one!

LisaMed · 07/04/2014 12:53

NoodleOodle - hugs

Definitely don't get the beer.

You may have help if you start your own thread in Relationships where there are some really good people who have more sense and knowledge than I'll ever have.

MaryWestmacott · 07/04/2014 13:18

Noodle - don't get the beer! Seriously, a man who loves you doesnt needs bribes. Get petrol to stop youself buying beer.

If you don't need the petrol, then give your friend the money back, did you say you were borrowing money to get beer for your cocklodger of a DP?

2rebecca · 07/04/2014 13:22

It's not your job to make your boyfriend happy. If he chooses to have a sulk because you ask him to pull his weight that's his choice, he could choose to apologise and contribute to the household instead of being parasitic.
If my husband posted negative stuff about me on facebook in a passive aggressive way we wouldn't be together.
I'm surprised you want him over any nights a week. He needs to prioritise getting a job and being independent.
I'd be telling him that your house your rules re the toilet and asking him to bring stuff to contribute if he's coming round.
He sounds an emotional drag though so I'd probably just see less of him until he gets his act together.

Pipbin · 07/04/2014 13:23

He won't change. Too many people have got stuck in toxic relationships like this. He might be the father of your children but that gives him no right to live in your house. What kind of a father is he being if he just lounging round the house smoking all day?

Kick him out. You've broken up with him before. Get rid. No compromise, no rules. Just show him the door.

gamerchick · 07/04/2014 13:24

Noodle go use the money now in case you cave. Tell him to knob off Angry

whois · 07/04/2014 13:27

He sounds like a massive chav. Can't see why you'd put up with that. Sort your self respect out!

Aeroflotgirl · 07/04/2014 14:27

LTB seriously, he's a cocklodger.
