DP woke me at 5.45 with his clumsy arse self pissing around in the bedroom this morning, he never thinks to just grab all the stuff he needs, which I do if I'm up and out before he needs to be. I heard him leave the house at 7.30 so got out of bed, there was a wet towel on the bedroom floor Hmm.... I get on the landing and his extension lead is all unravelled on the top of the landing cos he couldn't be arsed to move it, 3 chargers on the floor, phone, toothbrush and shavers....bathroom floor is saturated because he didn't have the shower visor situated properly THIS IS ONE OF HIS PET HATES IF ANYONE ELSE DOES IT.
I get to the bottom of the stairs and his pj top is at the door.....enter the living room to the sofa upside down, cushions on the floor and valium powder all over the floor!!!!!!!!! Reach the kitchen to his pj bottoms and a saturated towel thrown on the floor!!!!!! The DC don't make as much carnage as he does, and I think hes a cheeky bleeder for leaving shit all over the show for me to pick up. If it wasn't for the letting agency coming to do their 6 monthly review Id leave it all for him to move himself. Royally pissed off and feel like a dogsbody......arse

Dh occasionally leaves a bit of a trail in his wake if he is dashing out in a hurry, as do the rest of us when we finally get out the door for school. But he absolutely would not leave any mess at all to inconvenience me if he knew there was an inspection/visitors coming!

"hes took his top off and flung it downstairs before he got in the shower, bypassed it then flung his bottoms and towel on the kitchen floor"

I find that really odd.

Was he aiming for the washing machineHmm?

Bogeyface · 08/09/2014 16:25

Our washing basket spends more time in front of the machine than in the bathroom! If something needs washing and it is downstairs I often just chuck it in front of the machine. With a big family I do atleast 2 washes a day so it wont be there long.

women take responsibility for so much in opposite-sex relationships including the emotional work and the work to make the relationship appear equal.

Speak for yourself. Some of us really do have equal relationships with decent men.

They bear no resemblance to some of the tragic piss-takers we're hearing about on this thread.

OP - your partner treats you with contempt. You're a mug if you put up with it.

sorry still crying at the valium powder i think i need that in the morning!

my DH likes to have long long long showers before work anyone else tries that and he is banging on the door or barging in (if its me) because he really really needs to talk to me if im in the shower then he makes something up that the boys are arguing they are not he just wants me OUT OF THE SHOWER

i woke up this morning to dirty socks boxers and trousers all over the living room floor i made him clean them up i mean ffs what are we animals? i spent all day yesterday sorting out his clean and dirty washing in the bedroom only for him to drop the clean washing on the fucking floor again Sad he wants me to be his mother who put everything away for him doesn't he

I don't for 1 second think I'm a mug!!!!!! I just think he's a fuckwit who like NEARLY EVERY MAN I KNOW sometimes takes things for granted, he came home to "don't know what the fuck happened this morning but if I ever wake up to it again there will be nothing done to this house until you do it" I got the apology I wanted, and I don't feel like a demeaned woman or less important in my relationship

Valium powder might help you to care less Grin

You have my sympathy, OP. I'm sick of being Ms PickyUppyPuttyAway in the house.

Nulliferous, if you read that sentence in bold in conjunction with the sentence that came before it I hope it becomes clear that I am trying to summarise the main point of the book Wifework, not to make a comment about your relationship, mine or anyone else's.

Bogeyface · 09/09/2014 00:11

lost I didnt think for one second that you are a mug. The fact that you came on here ranting about it spoke volumes, as did the fact that you didnt say "I wish he wouldnt do that, I have to pick up after him all the time....". I read your OP and thought "I would not like to be him when he gets home!" and I was right, I didnt want to be him :o

losthermind · 09/09/2014 08:09

Well he crept round like a mouse this morning!!!! Nothing strewn everywhere, everything as I had left it, no talc all over the floor!!!! The manboy actually listens, there isn't just tumbleweed between his lug holes Grin
