I’m just so tired of being the maid!
I’m the only person at my house who cares if my house is clean I’m the only person who cares if the yard gets mowed. I’m the only person who cares if the animals get taken care of. I’m so tired of it. Everybody thinks I’m a bitch because I try to make them help me clean, but I shouldn’t have to make them. They should just offer to help like adults but no they will sit and smoke on the porch and watch me struggle with something heavy and never offer to help. They will sit and watch me clean like it’s not their job and I’m the maid. I have four trash bags in my living room that have been there for five days because my boyfriend wont take the trash down and he walks by it every single day and ignores it. My nephew does too every single day he walks by and ignores it. My boyfriend will say don’t do the dishes I’ll do them honey but then he NEVER does. He thinks he’s doing something nice by making me not do them right now but really what he’s doing is he’s making a bigger mess for me to clean up later and making me not trust him to do anything! I have tried going on strike it doesn’t work. They don’t care if they’re living in filth and I can’t stand to live in filth because of my mental issues so eventually I will clean and they know that that’s the problem. They can just wait me out. I don’t know what else to do.
How can I get through to these people that I need them to help me keep the house clean? To be clear there are four adults living in this house!
