It sounds like this dude might have a little bit of growing up to do. Like, he searched for a new gig for an hour, and then proceeded to dish that activity out as an excuse for not being able to follow through with doing the laundry correctly. Naturally, his girlfriend wasn't stoked about the development. It sounds like he's pretty clueless to the whole thing. You can imagine who the moral judges in Reddit's AITA community found themselves siding with.

    Font - 1 2 AITA for not "doing the laundry correctly?" I moved in with my GF a couple weeks ago and so far things have been going ok. For context, she works as a nurse and l'm currently looking for a job. Yesterday while she was working she texted me and asked me to put away the laundry she did that morning before going to work. This already annoyed me because I had just spent an hour applying to jobs and just wanted to relax and watch tv, but I said ok. I never really cared about my clean cloth

    Font - doing the laundry and go back to watching tv. When she gets home she starts screaming at me and telling me that I didn't do her laundry correctly. She was mad because I didn't fold her clothes and just crammed them in the drawers and she couldn't get her drawers to open easily. I told her that that's how I do laundry and if she didn't like it then she should just do it herself. She started screaming at me again and we went to bed angry left for work today without talking to me. AITA? I do

    Font - YTA. Quit being lazy and fold the laundry. She's a nurse, probably on her feet all day, and you were too exhausted to properly fold laundry from sitting down applying for jobs? 6 Reply 1 3.4k 3 ...

    Font - lotus_eater123· 21h Partassipant [3] 3 Awards Strategic Incompetence. Just saw this term last week on this sub, and it seems to fit you very well. Do a job poorly so you won't be asked to do it again. It's a great way to be living on the street a few days from now. No TV for you then.

    Font - moongirl12 · 22h Commander in Cheeks [250] YTA. You spent one hour applying for jobs. Unless there are extenuating circumstances, you could have acted like an adult and taken the time to fold her clothes. Could you really not bothered to put some sort of basic effort in??

    Rectangle - Nathan7776· 22h Partassipant [3] YTA - It's one thing to not fold your own clothes but to not fold your GF's clothes because you wanted to relax and watch tv while she is busy working is just disrespectful. G Reply 805 ...

    Font - so Puzzled-Growth7936 · 22h YTA You did an hour worth of work- that's great. Putting away some laundry won't take that long, you could have watched TV while folding, but more importantly your partner asked you to do something for them, and you decided to do it begrudgingly. I have a feeling you know she wouldn't have been ok with you just cramming them in the drawer but you did it anyway. Why? É G Reply ↑ 587 3

    Font - Ardeeke · 21h Certified Proctologist [21] 3 1 Award YTA for this really lazy trolling. On the offchance you're genuine: why don't you just move out again so you can do what you want and not have to think about another human being? Everybody wins that way. G Reply 4 248 3 ...

    Font - PlanktonOk4846 · 22h YTA you don't have a job right now, she's supporting you, would it kill you to actually put the clothes away neatly? You're writing it as if it's a first time thing, and that she's being dramatic, but let's be honest here; how often are you actually helping around the home? 6 Reply 1 233 3 ...

    Font - jac_ogg · 22h Partassipant [1] YTA. She is out at work, you're unemployed and annoyed she asked you to put away laundry? You know she likes laundry folded but crammed it into drawers anyway so you can get back to lazing around quicker. You've shown you have no respect for her and I hope she's not supporting you financially long term while you're watching TV at home G Reply 4 164 3 ...

    Handwriting - Parking_Injury_3570 · 21h YTA. That's fine if you're a 10-year-old putting away your laundry, you're an adult now. And she asked you to help her out. Particularly, if you are not working. You should be doing all the household stuff. G Reply 4 110 3 ..

    Font - curtainsonwater · 21h YTA. As a grown adult you should know how to fold and properly put away laundry. Also spending an hour looking for a job on your phone does not entitle you to an all day break of watching TV and chilling out. You sound like a child. Yes, she had every right to rip on you. The if you don't like how I do it do it yourself child brat behavior tells me how much of a baby you are. It doesn't matter if you don't care about keeping a place clean or neat, you don't live alon

    Smile - YTA. You don't have a job bringing in income. The least you could do is fold clothes or hang them up and put them away properly. The video games will wait. O 6 Reply ↑ 50 3 ...

    Font - YTA if you weren't going to take the time to do it right, se you should have just told her that you weren't going to do it. If she cares about having non-wrinkled clothes you actually created more work for her by cramming everything in the drawer than if you had just left the clothes in the basket. It sounds like you have a fair amount of free time. She asked for a small favor helping out with housework while she was the only one working. You responded by being resentful and creating work

    Font - Zareru1 · 21h Partassipant [1] YTA. You're complaining about spending 1 hour looking for a job and your partner asking to help with a shared chore, while she is working a full time job to support both of you. Maaaaaaybe the argument of "You didn't know better" would save your skin, but good luck. She's supporting both of you and you couldn't even take the time to do the one thing she asked of you correctly? Take a step back and evaluate your situation, and be thankful she's supporting you
