DH vent I found on The Bump.

I'm grossed out, and giving her the side-eye for living in such filth and marrying such a skuzz

Discuss.

i admit that i'm not the cleanest, neatest person, but my dh is a total slob and to absorbed in his video games to help out around the house. our bed is surrounded by a moat of his dirty laundry. since i'm pregnant, he's supposed to change the cat litter, but he won't do it unless i beg and plead for days, at which point the cats usually give up and find another place to soil. he will not throw away his old rotting food from the fridge. he's had some weird cheesy fish soup in there since august! seriously, AUGUST!

I feel ill.

That's absolutely disgusting and inexcusable. No way I'd put up with that.

Uhm no. Although I'm not sure what I would do to fix it, seeing how her nagging isn't really fixing the problem anyway. Gross.

I sure as hell wouldn't continue to live like that hoping he changes. What the hell are they going to do with the dirty diapers? How long will that child go before getting changed?

Oh no, you're absolutely right. I would definitely tell him it's me or his mess and he'd be sleeping at the IL's house until he decides. But even if he changes, how long do you think it would last?

Absolutely not.

Cutiepie811 · January 2011

That's soo gross! When the baby comes, it can't live in filth like that. I can imagine the house smells! Yuck!

Gross gross gross.

So...he must have been gross before they got married, right?

Seems like he got married thinking she'd do all the housework for him, and she got married thinking he would suddenly want to do his share. Clearly they're not on the same page.

Not that it's her fault. I mean, being married to a slob is her fault, but he's disgusting, no doubt.

See, I feel like because she's living in that mess, she's just as much of a slob and displacing blame 100% on him.

I would have left a long time ago. I'm not a neat freak by any means, but I expect a certain level of cleanliness in the house, and if DH doesn't do his part to maintain that, it's an issue of respect.

ashleymvee · January 2011

Oh that is just gross...she had to know he was a disgrace before marrying him.

Vikki2pay · January 2011

Gross!!

She had to have known what she was getting herself into before she got married, and yes she is to blame as well.

The biggest problem I have with HIM is the litterboxes. Slob or no, you'd figure if she was pregnant and was physically unable to take care of it, he'd be decent enough to do it. The rest she knew ahead of time, but not helping her out when she's pregnant? Not cool.

Eeew.

I've got a solution to that problem. She should give the cat away. Neither one of them are capable of caring for an animal so get rid of it. Problem solved!

Then when the douche asks where the cat is, she can say, well since you decided you want to sit on your azz all day and not help at all, one of the problems had to go...sorry.

Is ot "his" cat, though? I honestly couldn't do this, no matter what. Hunter has been with me for almost 7 years, he's my kid. And even Catimus and Neptune, who were Eric's... when I was home all the time, they adopted me. They're family. And hell, I feel bad for their poor cat who doesn't have a clean litterbox. Cats don't ask for much, but that's mean.
