Am I being too picky with these things?

New guy I’m dating, we get along so well and there are definite feelings there between us but there are a few things that I have seen that I’m unsure about.

which of these things would you feel very strongly about and which would you let go? I feel like I’ve lost all perspective on things recently and don’t want to confuse my feelings for true compatibility

  • his house is messy, unclean, I think he kept it up initially when I first started coming over but it is pretty bad- dishes everywhere, laundry everywhere, bathroom dirty, never seems to change bedding.
  • smokes a lot, doesn’t always brush teeth going to bed
  • doesn’t cook ever, has never done an actual full shop for food in the 4 months I’ve know him
  • never complements me ever, feels strange as precious boyfriends have done so
  • Never wants to do anything at weekends except sleep and slob about on sofa

How does he wipe his arse?

I couldn't sleep with someone like that or even hug them. Kissing would be a definite no. Ew ew ew.

Ham hock arse and furry teeth. What a catch.

PS you need to pick that bar up off of the floor.

Just one of those would be enough for me to dump him!

If this is all the effort he's making in the honeymoon period, what will he be like after this has worn off? He sounds like a lazy slob who won't adult. Yuk!

Ew. Any one of these would be a deal breaker. Altogether and he sounds unbearable. Is he a stoner by any chance?

Therealjudgejudy · 08/04/2023 10:09

This can't be serious...

If it is, your standards are on the floor. He sounds revolting

Wishimaywishimight · 08/04/2023 12:48

He sounds great, you should definitely marry him 🙄

Seriously IP, read you post again. Does he sound like a good boyfriend?
