DP unwillingness to get up

[Andiwilltrytofixyou]

Just wondering how normal this is. DP will stay in bed at every given opportunity. He has today off work, I have this morning off, We've just had the weekend off too, but he's still in bed, probably won't be up till after midday. Same on Saturday, yesterday got up at 11, only as I woke him several times as he needed to order off Amazon before delivery cut off. He would happily go back to bed for an afternoon nap too if we aren't out.

We don't have kids, but do have a young dog that needs attention and seeing to in the morning

I know he's an adult and can chose how to spend his own free time, but it would just be nice if he chose to spend some of that with me and not in bed.

If I go out and do things without him he'll sulk that he was left out, but doesn't then change his behaviour to be able to join me.

We've been together 5 years, lived together for about 2 of those. TBH it's actually quite unattractive having him laze around like a teenager.

He's not depressed or ill. Is this normal?

He's just bloody lazy. I would have a serious talk with him and explain you think the relationship isn't for you because of it, he may just stop this selfish behaviour. Maybe a lie in occasionally but this is ridiculous.

My ex husband was bloody lazy and would need constant afternoon naps!

It could be a sleep disorder. There are some that cause excessive sleep. It can be hard to get a referral but they are diagnosable and treatable.

He's a lazy arse and you're not helping him by waking him up so he doesn't miss order deadlines etc. I'm with a PP on this being a dealbreaker. I have no desire to spend the rest of my life with a manchild (made that mistake before - never again)

Mind, DH probably sometimes despairs of me staying in bed until 9, sometimes on a weekend. He's very much a lark, as is DS2 who allowed me to lie in until 10 past 7, this morning!
