Lazy partner

AIBU-
My partner works full time. As do I. I get up with our boy sort him out, get myself ready for work, drop DS off at my parents in the next town then drive back to work. Work 8 hours. Pick DS up. Back home. Cook dinner. Put washing on. Sort out bags for next day. Play with DS. Bath, read and bed routine with DS. He does NOTHING. He thinks because he pays the mortgage that’s his responsibility finished. I pay everything else. I’m at my white end!

Time to move on, I think. You're not happy, you and your partner don't respect each other

blubberball · 30/03/2021 20:38

You'll be better off on your own. He sounds useless and he doesn't care about you or your son at all.

@MrsTerryPratchett

He pays the mortgage on HIS house. Which he owns fully. So he should be paying half the rest of the bills.

I'd leave, he's an utter wanker.

Apparently I don't know how lucky I am!m to have a roof over my head. 👌🏽

You say what the fuck is wrong with him. But what's wrong with you that you choose to stay in this relationship?!

You deserve better and so does your son. Get rid of him.

@Callingallbutterflies

You might as well find somewhere else to live for you and your child. He can pay his own mortgage and all the bills for his house, plus child maintenance to you. He will love doing all his own washing, cooking and cleaning. You work full time and can achieve independence from this lazy, pointless man. Sounds like your sister provides good support to you!
She's a great sister and Anty. X

You are billion percent right. I don't know why. Maybe I thought it would change or it could change. 🤷🏼‍♀️

God nothing positive about him. He sounds lazy. You poor thing. Dont think he will change now

@Sclev

Well you're wise to it now and sick of his behaviour. Call his bluff and leave the bastard. He's not treating you or his son with any care or respect.

SpacePotato · 30/03/2021 21:07

The good news is that you can support yourself, you aren't married to the dickhead and you already might as well be single for all the use he is.

Did he want a child?

He doesn't even pretend to like you or respect you. Him only washing his own dishes is pure spite.

Fuck him. Let him pay his own bills plus child maintenance. You'll be happier on your own.

@SpacePotato
Yes pretty much single just house mates now.
Yea he did. I have PCOS so we had to have fertility medication to get pregnant.

Probably thought he'd get a permanent skivvy once you had a child.

You have your lovely son and you'll be so much happier away from this man.
