Living with partners parents

Hi, I need to vent!
So me and my OH live with his parents because they need help financially and they are not very well.
Before this I was living in a shared house and spent a lot of time in my room alone and before that I lived with my ex just the two or us. We are all ill at the moment with the flu and I mentioned a couple of times in the past week that we should have a good clean when we are all better to stop us from being ill and his mum got offended and really upset because she thought I was saying the house is scruffy when all I meant is germs pass from door handles and light switches ect. I'm also a little quilty of being anti social I like to eat upstairs just me and my fella or myself if he wants to eat with his family (his mum doesn't usually with us anyway because she's fussy about what she likes so she pops for a sneaky cig) but they watch game shows and eat and I don't really enjoy that although I do make the effort sometimes. I had a little cry to my fella about it earlier that I just feel like I have to consider everyone else's feelings all the times (I know that sounds pretty selfish) I love them like my own family but he's known them his whole life and nothings gonna make him feel awkward it's just so different when you live with someone else's family. My own family I moved out at 16 and before then always ate in my room ect we was never like him and his family. He says he feels like the pressure is on him because I obviously don't want to live there anymore. Am I being out of order?

Just to add they can manage without us now they are just about financially steady and if we was to move which we was on about doing next year anyway because we are gonna try for a baby it would be somewhere within walking distance.

Hi OP. That sounds very difficult.

I think you may have posted in the wrong section so won't get many answers. Can you report your post and ask for it to be moved to Relationships?

We're moving this over to relationships now. Flowers
