I am really feeling the irritation factor now. Moved in with my partner last summer, who I love very much. I have 3 children and he has 2 all of which live with us all the time and the house is a happy home. I am fine with his daughter as she interacts with the family and helps out and we all get on well but his son drives me to distraction, if I am being logical he stays in his room and I don't have to be around him much but I can't shake the feeling of irritation which is now impacting on my relationship as I am not good at hiding it.
His 17 year old son has spent the past 3 weeks on his bed playing his playstation, he doesnt wash till he is told to do so and then puts dirty clothes back on, after being told for 3 days to get in the shower his dad then praises him for doing it with a 'good lad' wth! He wonders downstairs when he wants food and then sits away from everyone so he can watch utube clips on his phone. The only conversation he has is about cyber world. He also feels the need to sneakerly pinch food from the kitchen, why cant he just get it rather than hide it in his clothes when he thinks nobody is looking.
The thing is he hasn't changed since lock down he was as lazy before, doesnt keep his room, his bedding, himself or his clothes clean. Does bare minimum at college to get a pass but preaches about how he is going to uni, was going to claim a bursery (based on his mams wages - he doesn't even live or sleep over there) rather than get a job - that is not happening I put my foot down quoting fraud.
It is now impacting on my relationship as I just see his dad leaving him to it so he has an easy life.
Just need to let of steam!!!
