[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Some examples are leaving food out in the counter all day long, never cleaning her dishes, leaving food and cups all over the place, leaving her makeup and everything all over the counters, leaving her clothes all over floor. I’m a very neat person and I’ve never dated someone so messy. [/quote] At a minimum she’s a slob and that won’t improve. At worse she has attention, awareness and executive functioning issues and that proliferates across everything (work, home life, raising kids, etc.).[/quote] This comment really got to me. OP, my DH and I are you and your girlfriend. I grew up in a dirty home with a mother who cooked but didn't clean much. I literally only remember our house being nice and clean on holidays; I was always ashamed to invite my friends over and panicked when I knew relatives were going to visit. I married someone who comes from a family of white-collar workers, a family that is clean and organized. He was shocked at how much of a slob I was. The difference between me and your gf though is that I was always embarrassed when my DH pointed out a mess that I made, or the food that I left on the counter. I am trying to improve but it's hard because as the PP said, this also extends to executive functioning skills and general awareness. [/quote]
