To put his dirty washing back in his draws

[SooMary]

Dp is sooo lazy when it comes to picking up after himself!

I am fed up of picking up his dirty washing down his side of the bed!

aibu to pair his socks back up an put everything away

YABU, leave it where it is. Once he’s had to fish out hid own dirty scants for work he’ll start to learn.

Just ignore his stuff, if it's not in the basket it doesn't get washed.

I assume you mean his drawers? Clothes drawers, not drawers as in his pants?

I generally place his dirty pants and socks on his pillow if he regularly leaves them on the floor.

He is getting a little better . . .

Yes drawers

Gather them up in a binbag and chuck it out of sight.

When he finally twigs that the washing fairy didn't magic up any clean pants point him in the direction of said binbag and the washing machine.

So stop picking it up. Even the 7 years old in this house knows that if it doesn't go in the washing basket it doesn't get washed.

Just leave them to fester on the floor! He'll soon pick them up when he's left with the 'hole in the toe, mismatched Ines that make his feet itch'

I used to feel like this and then I just decided to pick it all up to make myself happy. It's a small thing to do for DH and he does lots for me so every morning I take down all the dirty washing.
I do all the washing, most of the folding and then leave it all on the dining room table to be taken up by the owners. This rarely happens and gets on my nerves though.
Am not suggesting you should do the same I just do it to try and make myself feel happier 😬

YABU to pick up his dirty stuff.
As others have said, just leave it. He will notice when he has nothing clean to wear.

Leave it or do what Chic said.

My grandma used to come and clean and do the washing at Ours. She used to have a rule. If she found it out of the laundry basket she would wash it but return as found.... clothes that weren’t in the basket would be washed, Ironed and folded and put away inside out. Or Left cleaned on the floor where she picked them up from! My dad on the other hand would pick it up and throw it out the window into the garden! Both successful as they rarely had to do it!

My ex used to pull this shit - where I was lucky was as he was army personal cleanliness and clean smart uniform part of the job so he'd get in bother if he started smelling/ wearing yesterday's shirt.

He was also very sporty and had specific kit he liked to wear for each sport.

So I did as pps suggested and stopped doing it - not in the wash basket, didn't get washed. Within a week he ran out of clean shirts and sports kit, TRIED to blame me which I refused to accept and after that he did always put dirty clothes in the basket.

But that was the least of the problems with him to be honest.
