I would kill anyone who smoked in my house for starters, and I am a smoker! But luckily Eric was a bachelor for 15years before I got to him, so he helps cleans and also keeps thing neat so I don't have to clean more than I already do. He even wipes the toilet seat each and every time he pees on it!

Some Days, I Could Just Smack My S/O!!

Neither Scott nor I smoke, so I don't have that problem. Scott hasn't changed from when I was working just as much as him or even when he was in between jobs and I was working...
I hear ya on everything else though. Scott leaves water/ Gatorade bottle ALL over! He also leaves dishes on the floor when he's done eating...which is an invite to the cats, which he doesn't even seem to notice or care about! That's what infuriates me the most!
Then he wonders why Chevy is so interested in his food when he first sits down! GRRR
He also refuses to spray air freshener in the bathroom despite the constant supply.
Men are so gross!

This is hiliarious! I dont understand why men cant lift the seat up or sit down on it!! Mine only sits on it when he is too drunk to stand! LOL
how would they like it if we stood up to pee and just left it in apuddle on the bathroom floor for them to step/slip in???
DH and I are opposite of the norm (however, I do NOT pee on the seat, heehee). His standards are much higher than mine, and I really don't care for cleaning that much. We've been married just over a year and we've gotten way better about it.
So glad we didn't live together before we got married though...he would have gone NUTS and probably would have not wanted to marry me.
*snort*

I have yet to marry, but all of my roommates have been guys and let me dismiss the question of it changing from this or with age! Simple fact, atleast with me, I have always and still am cleaning up after the boys/guys/men!

I see. So what you're saying is that I don't have any reason for venting, or blowing off a little steam?? But that it's okay for you to vent (i.e., regarding your ex-housekeeper, or your incompetant doctor's office, etc.).
I don't believe that I'm "obsessed" b/c I expect a little common courtesy. It is very difficult for me to perform even simple little every day activities, due to my back condition, and I think I have a reason to get a little miffed if I need to clean up after a full-grown man. It's not like I'm going around w/ a duster, broom, mop, whatever, following him around all day long and yelling at him. I would think that you'd understand my position a little better, considering the fact that you're disabled, too. I don't have the luxery of having a housekeeper to do the cleaning, as you do..
FYI, my s/o and I have had discussions regarding this very thing, several times - which is why I was miffed. He knows how I feel, and he WANTS a clean house himself. Which is why I don't understand his actions, when he feels the same way as I do..
Other peeps come to TCS to vent a little too, regarding their s/o's or whatever. I have no other outlet, being housebound most of the time. I don't see what harm it does to blow off a little steam once in awhile....
~KK~
OMG, I so can relate. I get mine trained, then he gets sick or hurts himself and all the training goes undone :smack: I.e. I had him trained to crumple up and throw away the soda bottles (no return deposit here). Well then he got an ingrown fingernail and after that healed poofed, the soda bottles now rest on the counter NEXT TO THE GARBAGE CAN.
He's sooo close....
Here's a game you can play for the toilet. Toss a handful of Cheerios in there while he's going and say "OK Honey, dunk the Cheerios"
If he asks....just say that you're training him on how to aim

Some men just don't get it, do they?!
Maybe he's getting cold feet, and is trying to miff you off so you'll call off the wedding!

Any closer and you'd have a bottle of vitamin water and a remote control thrown at you bruce
No i don't think he has cold feet- he's just trying to be "cheap" after the fact. He knew MONTHS ahead of time i was going to get a dress, months ahead of time that i had budgeted for it and had a set amount, and that i would be going during the sale today to try and find a reasonably priced one. He just doesn't understand that it's special...he thinks i should just rent one that everyone else has worn...that's not special to me..he doesn't get it. I tried to explaine why it matters but he was just being rude about it. I finally told him there was no way i was taking it back and to get over it!Originally Posted by KittKatt

He could have said something before hand! I swear i could have strangled him tonight thoughI was SOOOO thrilled about my gown and excited all day about it- and then he ruined it for me tonight. Haha he had frozen pizza for dinner!
I'm happy to say that although my man's aim is lousy, he does clean up after himself. He's been getting more and more domesticated as time goes on. He's even taken to voluntarily cleaning things from time to time!
And I'm also proud to let slip that he's perfectly content for me to have whatever wedding gown I really want - because he does actually understand just how much it means to me to be able to make a bigger deal of our special day.
We have family coming from several different countries, so he would like to have a bigger wedding than just a registry office affair, too.
I LOVE my man.
The only time I could really smack him one is when he grabs my butt and makes wobbling noises... but only when I have PMS
I LOVE my man.
