Laundry woes

I do all the laundry for the family. Always have, I don't usually mind.

This morning, rushing around as usual I put a wash on. 95% my husband's clothes. All of which he has put in the laundry basket.

The washing machine has finished washing. I open the door. White tissue paper everywhere. It's a dark wash. Husband pottering around. I say, there's tissue everywhere, you haven't emptied your pockets. He says well it's not a huge problem and just stands there. I pull the clothes out. Tissue paper all over, tissue paper in the washing machine and now tissue paper on the kitchen floor and on me. I say this has really pissed me off, it's extra work. He smirks.

I pull out all clothes, separate my few items from his and throw his into the garden, put the washing machine on to clean it and brush up the paper on the floor.

He says that I am over reacting. I say that he couldn't even be arsed to apologise which is what has really annoyed me.

I go back to work (wah - started just after 7 am as really busy). He goes upstairs - he isn't currently working.

AIBU in leaving his clothes outside for him to deal with?

Ugh, take it no concern on his part?

At one point mine left item of clothing outside on the floor beside the door and kept moaning I needed to deal with it, while I was doing all the rest. I left it there to see if would pick it up and they walked past it day after day, was there for months.

I really don't get it.

He has put them on the garden table. ... which they were lying next to 🤔

Maybe a hint for you to move them. Mine used to do this, instead of just dealing with it and helping would sometimes just dump them in another location. Usually somewhere that would be used so had no choice but to move them, like on the bed or on my side of the sofa.
