Pick your clothes us or else

I have lost count of the ammount of times I have asked my partner (who doesnt live with me) not to leave his dirty underclothes slung on my bathroom/bedroom floor, especially leaving them there when he's going back home to his own house assuming I will pick them up and wash them ready for when he comes back the week after.

Ive asked him not to do it so many times that now I have started throwing them away if I come across them on the floor. My friend thinks this is a bit harsh but I have warned him! So, is it harsh? what would you do?

no..do it before the rot sets in and he thinks its normal!..what does he do at his own home then..do they crawl in all by themselves after a week of desperate waiting!!

He's a grown man, he's had his endless warnings. I'd start binning them too.

Do what I used to do, hang them up neatly in his wardrobe still dirty, he will soon learn when he has no clean clothes to wear.

I think you're doing exactly the right thing.

Yes I'd be chucking them as well! Believe me it doesn't get better. I have a dh who leaves little piles of clothes around the house as he chnages from one outfit to the next. He ends up with no clean clothes because if it isn't in the laundry basket I don't wash it. However I blame his mother - when he lived at home he chucked away pants he'd "got caught short in" (a heavy weekends drinking)and she fished them out of the bin and hand washed them, I kid you not!!! While there's women like that about there will be lazy sods messing up our homes Grin I've made myself feel sick remembering that one [vomit]
