I’ve shared this story before but my last two years of college, I lived with all male roommates. They were so bad about cleaning I finally had to lock all my dishes in my room because the boys used them and left them dirty to grow mold. I left for a week or two during a school break to visit my boyfriend. When I came home, I caught one of my roommates eating cereal out of a frisbee.
A muthafucking frisbee.
Because no one would do the dishes.
ma invece i frisbee li fanno?Originariamente Scritto da Cesarino
Cioè, quando è tornata a casa si è trovata ancora i coinquilini?When I came home, I caught one of my roommates
Fico.
Non le hanno sfondato la porta a colpi di cazzoduro?
I have been living with two male roommates for the past 3 months and in this period of time I've just lost all faith in men. I know that sounds dramatic, but it truly shocks me every day how men my age (early-30s) function and what they think is acceptable. None of us knew each other prior to moving in (this kind of roommate matching is very common where I live), so it's not like there's any sort of history there, yet immediately it became very clear that I was put into the role of being their mother/wife/general caretaker. For example:
I have to remind them repeatedly to pay their bills. I only do this because if they don't, it affects me, otherwise I wouldn't care at all what they do. Every month I have to tell them multiple times.
They do not clean, take out the trash, or contribute in anyway to the general wellbeing of the space, but they know that I do because they'll immediately take over and mess it up once it's clean. I've had to ask them repeatedly to contribute and they only will once I do that.
If anything breaks, they won't tell the landlord and will wait for me to no matter how long it might take. One time I went away for a week and when I came back there was no hot water. I asked them about it after and apparently there was no hot water almost the entire time I was gone and they just didn't say anything. I texted our landlord and he was at the apartment an hour later fixing it; the weaponized incompetence has gotten so bad they'd rather go days without hot water instead of just sending a 20 second text.
A month in one of them asked me how to use the washer. A man in his late-20s/early-30s stopped me when I was doing laundry to ask me to show him how to do it.
Sure, "not all men", etc. but the fact that two fully grown men won't do something as simple as pay their bills without me telling them is just too much for me to deal with. This combined with all of the horror stories I hear from friends of mine who are dating and my own personal dating experiences just makes me want to swear it off completely. It's pathetic to me that in 2023, simply existing in the same space as a woman is a sign to men that they can peace out until they're explicitly told to do something by that woman. I don't exist to care for grown men who are perfectly capable of caring for themselves and I'm too afraid I'll get trapped in a relationship like this.
Edit: I see this post is reaching the other side of Reddit. If you are a man who is commenting or messaging me just to tell me I hate men, I'm a bad person, etc., please feel free to save your energy. Unless you're upset because you're one of my roommates in which case please use that energy to clean the living room.
