Who the Hell leaves a half slice of turkey in the fridge, and an empty box of what used to be fries????

Wayne

Who uses the side of the bed as a laundry basket?

Wayne

Who leaves the hair gel and toothpaste open?

Guess!

Do any of you go through this as well or is it just me?

"the side of the bed as a laundry basket" seems a bit hard to carry no?

[Fierce Critter]

I'm working on the "bedside floor laundry basket" problem with Jon, too.

Jon's pretty good about those sorts of things. Lord knows I have my share of things I don't keep on top of. I think every couple goes through this sort of thing.

[Brenda Starrr]

I feel like I have 3 kids instead of 2.

[Onyx]

erm.... I do stuff like that too.

I'm trying to get better about it.

[saechalyn]

My clothes get everywhere...but I'm single and I have my own bathroom, so it doesn't affect anyone else.

[kellygrrrrrl]

I am wondering if my Husband is living a double life as some fella named Wayne?

[Homicidalheathen]

Got my man pretty well trained lol but I do allow him his mountain. What is it? It's a continuously growing pile of useless paper that once was 2ft by 2ft is now about 6ft by 6ft. I think it's alive....I see things moving in there lol.

It's true... just part of being a couple (or 3some for that matter). I know Estranged Hubby Rick had plenty of little slobbish habits that drove me nuts- but then again I had some that seriously annoyed him, too. That's one reason I'm savoring my single status before Erzulie/Freda brings me a new mate.

The theory now is that male brains don't process as much detail, so they truly don't notice how messy things are... makes sense in a way... of course I've known plenty of men who aren't slobs, but the ones who are honestly don't seem to have the same sense of cleanliness/order that the rest of us do. In other words it isn' t that they're just too lazy to put things away- they really can't tell the difference.

[honeymustard02]

Lol if you think that's bad, you should live with my boyfriends family. They're a bunch of pack rats that are also slobs.

If something spills, it gets left to just dry up, if that cat gets sick of the dog pee's on the floor, it gets left to dry up.

Wanna trade??????

Funny thing is out of all of them, my boyfriend some how ended up a super anal clean freak lol

[bean]

Sweetie, I feel your pain. I'm married to a 31 year old child. He does NOTHING around the house.

When the cat pukes, he leaves it for me to clean up, so the carpet gets stained.

He can't aim for shit and gets piss on the bathroom floor and guess who gets to clean it up?

He won't feed the cat when her bowl is empty, or change her water, or clean her littler box. We've been together for 4 1/2 years (the cat is 4 years old) and he hasn't done any of it ONCE. And he says if we get divorced he gets the cat. FUCK YOU!

He leaves empty containers/silverware in the fridge.

Won't wash the dishes (and uses 900 glasses in a day), or clean ANYTHING for that matter.

Every Tuesday I have to remind him that it's garbage day and to take the fucking garbage out....it was our deal, he said he would take care of the garbage so as far as I'm concerend it's his job.

Leaves the phone off the hook all day while I'm at work and claims he didn't hear that it was off the hook.

Leaves a trickle of water running all day while I'm at work and claims he couldn't hear it.

Stands with the fridge open for really long periods of time.

Goddess, I could go on. Seriously, I just want to crack him over the head with a frying pan!

[mallochai]

eek, yeah, i hear ALL of this. from my roomate, i get to deal with things like...

-pee drippings all over the toilet

-shaving bits and hairs all over the sink/counter

-soda cans on the counter, half full instead of dumped out and put in the recycling

-it's my responsibility to clean the dishes, and cook, somehow... even when he eats by himself. it's his responsibility to put the dishes away when they're clean, but he doesn't do it, so i can't wash dishes when the washer is full.... ugh, the endless cycle

-never folds or puts away his own laundry

-the desk is contstantly a mess of folders, cd's, everything available and no longer findable

-never takes out the garbage unless i tie the bag up and put it outside the door. he'll just keep piling stuff into the tiny bin until the top pops off

-he constantly complains that i spend too much money at once on groceries, but won't go himself

basically... nothing ever gets taken care of or done unless i mention it over and over again, and ignore it myself. which doesn't happen, cause then i get yelled at for being messy. um.... no, i don't think so mister man. jeezuz....

i must admit though... i'm the one guilty of the clothes pile madness. I wear things three times usually before washing, so it doesn't always get put away properly. I just don't see the point in all the water waste when things aren't that dirty. the same does NOT go for underwear or socks though. yech.

Didn't you know??? Thats what kids are for! To do the jobs you don't want to! LOL

Don't have kids, don't plan on having them, ever...especially since I'm married to an insensitive man-child! lol
