i agree. but stop cleaning it up, OP. if it annoys him, he'll fix it. if it doesn't annoy him to have dirty dishes sitting out all day, you guys might just have different cleanliness standards. which is an overarching issue to discuss and figure out where your compromise is, but don't make it about the dishes specifically.

For real. My husband did this, and is now dead. I am glad I didn't waste time complaining about it on a public forum!

OMG did he die from not doing dishes????

But...he's really charming. And I kind of find it all adorable.

I have a rule: You can ask me to do something OR you can show me how to do do something , but you can't have both. If you want both you can do it your f*#cing self.

I do the dishes, make the bed, clean the floors MY way. If you don't like it then have fun doing it while I'm out with the guys.

You sound like a catch.

You sound like a bitch.

I pity your spouse.

I pity you.

Ok. Cool.

This is exactly what DW does - I've been able to change the kids' habit so at least it's a partial victory in our house. Even though DW is slob, I just remind myself, when my OCD tries to kick in, how much I love her and force myself to let it go.

It's not hard. Just not necessary. DH or I will load the dishwasher when it's ready to be loaded. Until then it can sit on the counter.

That is so gross.

I'm sorry for your loss. I can completely see myself being sad and upset over these little nuisances that annoy me now. (Not OP here.) Thats why I don't bitch much about them. I hate when my fiancé puts his socks and underwear in the laundry inside out. It adds extra time to the laundry. But it's not such a huge inconvenience, I don't get worked up over it. If somethnging were to happen to him, I know I'd miss those stupid inside-out socks. A lot.

I taught my teens how to the load the dishwasher and do laundry. They are far from perfect they but are learning. I had a roomate in college who never cooked or knew about laundry. It was absurd.

I wonder what little things you all do that drive your DH nuts? Probably nothing...

Im sorry for your loss. However, one of us will die at some point. Does this mean no one should ever vent about stuff? I had many pregnancy losses, so no one ever gets to complain about where their kids leave their dishes?
