Last night the final straw with my partner?

Right everyone, I think I’ve got a DP problem…why is it (for me anyway) that when you start living with someone everything goes downhill…

His lack of tidiness around the house has annoyed me for a while now - dirty dishes, leaving clothes in stupid places, not cleaning his hair after he shaves.

Our en-suite is a DP free zone. If he needs a pee in the middle of the night, he uses the main bathroom on the landing and doesn’t flush so not to wake me (I do the same).

We’ve had two crap nights sleep in a row due to the heat, so last night was hoping for the best but prepared for the worst. Anyway, about 4am I was in a light sleep and noticed an absolutely foul smell.

DP had only left a crap in our en suite. He said he went in there as he was bursting for a wee and sat down so he could better aim as turning the light on could have woken me. He said he unwittingly let something out and didn’t flush as I would have woken and he intended to clear it before I woke in the morning.

I read him the riot act this morning and he seemed genuinely embarrassed, but I am honestly at breaking point now!

Fucking grim he didn't flush his shit?! Out of courtesy?! I'm honestly sorry you had to deal with that. This is something my kid could get away with with a light telling off but I can't even comprehend DH doing it.
