Is he rude or am I boring?

Hello, I feel a bit stupid posting this when people are going through far worse situations but just need advice really
My bf of 4 years is annoying me lately, I work in a GP surgery & it's really busy so when he asks about my day I start to tell him & he'll say 'one second, did you see the trailer for so & so?'
it'll throw me off what I was saying & I lose my train of thought so I'll start again & it's just interruptions until I eventually say forget it then he says 'oh okay then' I'm starting to think maybe I'm just a boring person & I'm not worth listening to.
His personal hygiene is shocking to me as well, he will go days without showering or brushing his teeth - if I did the same I'd be so self conscious as I work in an office but maybe because his a builder & his not in close proximity to anyone he doesn't care. Am I being fussy?

I would not be with someone who didn't shower and brush their teeth daily. That's grim.

Eh, I wouldn’t worry so much whether you’re boring or he’s rude.
He’s a dirty fecker and being a builder has nothing to do with it, ewwww

bigchris · 13/03/2019 21:04

All the builders I know come home and go straight in the shower, your bed must reek!

PositiveVibez · 13/03/2019 21:06

Wow OP, what a charmer you have there. Doesn't want to listen to you and can't be arsed to look after himself.

Yep, what a catch.

mimibunz · 13/03/2019 21:07

He’s rude and gross.

beerandpopcorn · 13/03/2019 21:11

Arrogant dirty little weasel! Get rid! Where's your self respect? You can do better!!

Sunshineandflipflops · 13/03/2019 21:19

Surely being a builder would mean he should shower MORE frequently?! All that manual work! I shower every morning and often bath at night too, even if I’m not going anywhere!

Waterfred · 13/03/2019 21:33

Some fairly major social issues there!

TowelNumber42 · 13/03/2019 21:40

How can you bear to be near him if he's minging? I assume the sex is awful.

You are NOT fussy. I'd say your standards are way too low, not too high.

UnspiritualHome · 13/03/2019 21:44

His what is a builder?

mamato3lads · 13/03/2019 21:44

What a shitbag. Tell him to have a fucking wash!

Bringbackthestripes · 13/03/2019 21:46

Am I being fussy?

Not fussy enough. He sounds grim.

Tomtontom · 13/03/2019 21:51

Is this the chap that cheated on you?

Please look after yourself and leave him.

AFistfulofDolores1 · 13/03/2019 21:55

What a catch he sounds. Not.

Walkmehome · 13/03/2019 21:58

You’ve put up with his disgusting hygiene for four years?

cosmomartini · 13/03/2019 21:58

Thank you for replying guys.
Oh sex? What's that? We have zero intimacy - I now realise it's because of the stench lol

Well he sounds absolutely appalling. My advice to you is move on as quickly as possible. Don’t waste any more time with him.

MrsAJ27 · 13/03/2019 22:08

Yuk!!! Get rid that's disgusting Sad

HollowTalk · 13/03/2019 22:10

Oh god, why on earth are you with this man? Seriously, give us one reason why you are with him.

madcatladyforever · 13/03/2019 22:11

He sounds like an oaf, you can do better.

NotSuchASmugMarriedNow1 · 13/03/2019 22:23

He interrupts you because he doesn't want you to speak but hasn't got the balls to say shut the fuck up which is what he wants you to do

AtrociousCircumstance · 13/03/2019 22:26

Wow. You must think there is something really deficient about yourself, to be with someone like that.

Please employ some self-worth and dump him.

Closetbeanmuncher · 14/03/2019 00:47

Oh Lord I bet he smells like a festering camembert 🤢

No way I would be getting my chops round that!

Jesus Christ bin him off already

SurgeHopper · 14/03/2019 00:50

Is he rich?
