so, last night my husband shaved in our master bathroom. When I went in there right before bed I look down WTH? and notice a HUGE pile of facial and head hair! (he wears the buzz-cut) So I look at him and I'm like "really Mitch? and started to clean it.... He starts bitching and saying that my hair and skin products are always on the counter??? How the hell is that even the same? How would he like it if I shaved my lady-bits and left the hair all over the floor?????It's discusting! I wish he'd just take a damn minute and pick up his mess! I work have a great job and pay all the bills! He had a day off school on monday and so I asked him to do the dishes (we have a dishwasher) and vacuum... I came home and the house was worse than when I left! He said he WAS BUSY PLAYING HALO FROM 7AM UNTILL 2:30!!!! I'm not him or anyone elses damn maid!!!! I pick-up my mess and he's 38 years old !! grow up and act like a adult! I just don't know what to do anymore!!!! HELP!!
update! well he got a job the other day and started last night :) if he's not home as much to mees things up then I won't have as many reasons to get mad! and he's finaaly working!! I'm willing to deal with much more when I'm not the only one working :) so relieved!

I've noticed that too. I would give him an "allowance" Let him know he can play his game after he does this, this, and this. If he can't manage to do that, get rid of the xbox all together until he can get his act together.

So... Shave you lady-bits and leave the hair for him to find? Or just stop cleaning up after him. But I've noticed that this laziness is a trend in the women on here with gamer husbands/boyfriends... maybe hide the Xbox till he cleans up and acts like an adult?
the thing is is that my hubby doesn't really play the games.. with the exception of monday when he was home all day.. he's just lazy! if i stayed home from work or hell just decided not to clean on one of my 2 days a week off he would have an issue! I'm about done with this whole mess. I love him but he doesn't respect me at all! I make 35K a year and pay all the bills, cook, clean, even pay his child support! it's rediculous! I could be alone happy and have a clean house and way more money on my own!

see thats just it! I would never leave something like that just laying round on the freaking floor. And I 've tryed just not giving a crap and not cleaning up after him.. last time his hair was on the floor for a week! how freaking nasty is that? and Ive stopped cleaning at times (went on strike) and he never ever noticed.... after like 4 days he starts bitching about the dirty house! i told him to clean it but he didn't.. I just need some help with things around the house! I work ( he goes to school part-time) and he wont look for a job... he's lazy won't lift a finger except to occasionaly cook dinner. and we have custody of his 10yr old son. I don't want him to grow up thinking this is how things are supposed to be. And i give my step-son chores and his dad doesn't make him do them or he actually does them for him! I just so lost right now! geez..
Wow... That's worse than I expected to hear! I think I got lucky in the man-department; 7 years in the Air Force made my DH a neat freak lol - he'll help clean & do housework. and we don't own an Xbox or PS3 (we do have a Wii), so getting lazy due to gaming isn't an issue... I wish I had some better advice for you, but I went through this shit with my ex-bofyfriend (he wouldn't work, spent all my money, and sat around playing Madden all day)... which is why he's my ex, among other reasons. Maybe take your kid and leave for a few days? It might be a wake-up call & help him pull his head out of his ass...
well it's his bio-son and my step I just raise him like my own :) but yeah if this continues then in June when ss is with his birth mom for a few weeks in the summer.. i might just do that! I just feel like I was blinded by my love for him ya know? now that he hasn't worked in over a year and not looking to... I'm breaking my back trying to do everything..I'm not superwoman! I don't ask for much! just pick-up after yourself! he's a grown man not a child
Eeeewwww. That is gross. :o( I have a friends who's husband does that and I don't know how she deals with it.
If it were me, it would gross me out enough to stop doing something that he really appreciates me doing for him. I am fully aware that is an immature reaction, but if he is so lazy that he can't clean up is bodily hair that he shaves off... I would be so lazy as to stop cooking him dinner until he gets it.
Never! Playing Halo isn't about the campaign, woman! It's about the online multiplayer world of greatness. Shame on you! Also, he's pretty behind on the times if he just beat Reach. You're in a world of trouble, cause there's more Halo out there waiting for him to play. lol Just take his controllers away and hide them when he misbehaves. I know that would keep me in line.

You must not play Halo, and therefore don't understand the importance of it.
haha well he beat that game halo reach on monday so he should be o.k. without it for a while..and I've played it with my SS afew times :)
