It’s never easy to be confronted with your shortcomings. I almost cried yesterday when a friend told me I didn’t do the dishes properly at her house and that I was disorganised with my stuff. I mean, she was right, but it was something about the delivery that didn’t sit right with me. After we talked it through, I came to terms with what I had to do better and stopped being defensive, but it took a lot of empathetic back-and-forth. However, if someone doesn’t have the ability to stop, reevaluate, and go ‘Ok, something I’m doing has to change’ to me, it’s a major red flag.

Maybe he is not a bad boyfriend in general, but this should be treated as an alert about possible future behaviour in relation to his responsibilities. He seems to be taking advantage of the situation a bit. Seeing his deep denial, a conversation might not be the best way to approach him; instead, some boundaries and restructuring should be put in place. It’s crazy how things like this are the ones that tear down relationships, whether it’s friends or partners, and not the bigger dramas. Cohabitation is the real litmus test of all relationships.
