OT - FYI, I am not the housekeeper
In case anyone is confused about my role or position in life, it is NOT that of a housekeeper. Now, when I'm in a relationship with someone, I make take on certain responsibilities, like doing their laundry and putting it away neatly every week or washing all the dishes in the sink. When I have a roommate, I do not view those things as my responsibility. I might put some of my roommate's clothes in the washer when I am washing my own to make a full load, because I am nice and helpful like that. But it is not my job and at the very least, a thank you is in order. Otherwise, everyone can just do their own laundry and wash their own dishes and I will have lots more free time.
That is all.
That is all.
Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.

I hear you, Kelly! I dont understand your partner. He wants to just be friends but he expects you to still do chores around the house as if you are still partners? What is that? If he wants to truly just be friends so that you two are just roommates, you are under no duty to do anything other than your own stuff (laundry, dishes etc). Soon he will realize how foolish he is for not wanting to continue a relationship with you and be pampered by you doing some of the domestic work. He really must be foolish. Im sorry you seem frustrated by this! I would be too.

You go girl. A roommate is a roommate ...not a mate / partner
Make sure your stuff is picked up and put away , he can take care of his own ****

I think I've been away and missed some stuff! lol But I'm with you about doing the housework. If you're going to be just friends, then maybe he can start doing dishes somethimes too.

Sing it, sister.
Also, I appreciate the irony in him grousing about having to be a caretaker, all while relying on you to wash his undies and dinner dishes. Yeah... how black IS that pot, kettle?
