[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I sympathize with OP. My spouse is messy. Dirty laundry on the ground, food bits on the counters, clutter all over. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but it really adds up when it's every single day for years and years. Especially when you're cleaning up after yourself, doing your chores, trying to raise children in a clean environment, but then you have to clean up after the spouse as well. You try gentle reminders, you try letting it go, you use humor, but over time you give up on that and you just nag out of frustration. Like why can't the spouse just clean up after themselves like you would expect from a respectful adult roommate? The alternatives are either to live and raise kids in a dirtier/cluttered environment, splurge on maids so the spouse never has to take responsibility, or do it all yourself. It's an awful choice for daily quality of life. So yeah, I can see where OP is coming from. All you "let it go" people are probably rolling around in trash at this very moment. [/quote]

Most of OP’s complaints are petty.  Food crumbs lead to pests. A light left on is something to let go. [/quote]

I am taking OP's complaints as a partial list of a bigger situation. I bet there are more examples. My spouse does the TP thing too: uses up the TP and doesn't replace the roll. No big deal, right? Now multiply that by once every couple weeks for 5-10 years. You start to lose your patience with this sort of thoughtlessness, because it is literally your spouse handing you their work for you to do. [/quote]
