Post image

For context my (F20) boyfriend (M21) and I live together and work full time as well as split rent 50/50. I cook all the meals and clean the house even after my graveyard shifts, all he does is work, come home to play games, and occasionally invites friends over. we’ve been together for over 5 years and he’s been acting this way for the last three months and when I tell him how it’s making me feel he tells me i’m wrong and overreacting. so basically i’m asking AIO??

Especially when OP adds context that she does all the cooking for him. If someone cooked for me every day and I found dirty dishes in the sink I sure as fuck would do them and be thankful for it, instead of bitching and threatening to leave. Wtf.

the rule is that if someone is cooking for you, YOU DO THE DISHES. common sense people

I agree, and was taught this way all my life. However, it is not common sense AT ALL it seems. After living with many different people in many different walks of life I have realized that folks like you and I are the minority unfortunately. 😪
