[QUOTE="klmno, post: 363183, member: 3699"] I think it would depend on what I thought the cause of the problem is. Admittedly, I cannot cook without making a mess in the kitchen- just like you described. However, I do clean up my mess. As far as being sloppy around the house and just letting things pile up while I lose myself in things like TV and computer- well, I can easily do that when I'm depressed or feel I have stress or problems that I don't have a clue how to solve. It's an escape- not a good habit, but definitely a sign of feeling weighted down with no solution in siight. When I don't feel that way, this doesn't happen. So I'm wondering if you think there's something like this going on with him? Not that it would make it excusable or acceptable, but it would effect how I dealt with it. Or, do you think he has never been in the habit of picking up after himself and just expects that you'll take care of it all because he thinks it's your job and not his repsonsibility? My ex was that way- and that's part of the reason he became my ex. LOL! (I'm not suggesting that for you- I had plenty of other reason, too) [/QUOTE]
