I just need to vent somewhere, so sorry in advance.
I currently have a roommate (who is a guy), and FI and I take turns staying at each other's place. I love my roommate to death, and he's my best guy friend, but OMG. I HATE HIM AS A ROOMMATE. Before August, I lived with FI and his 3 other roommates who never cleaned after themselves. I was the only one who cleaned or did the dishes out of 5 people. It was awful. My current roommate was aware of this, and sounded just as appalled as I was, and assured me that he wasn't like that.
Well, wouldn't you know it, I'm the only one who has cleaned our new apartment or did any dishes since we've moved in. It's so annoying. I'm not even here half of the time, and I still end up cleaning. He can't even be bothered to put his things away, or switch out the trash bag when it is clearly full. He'll leave his work ties and hat in the kitchen. Why wouldn't he just take it with him to his room?! It's ridiculous.
The other day, it had been a while since I had cleaned, and he was home, so I figured he'd help out once he saw me cleaning, but NOPE. He left almost as soon as he saw me start to clean, saying he was going to get food. A few minutes later, he posted on Facebook saying, "Walking around Wal-Mart always helps when you're bored and have nothing to do." REALLY?! How about helping your roommate clean your aparment for once? Ugh. It just makes me so irritated.
I tried to bring it up to him, but he just got really defensive and said that it wasn't true.
