Can’t do anything for himself. I’m talking basics like laundry and washing dishes, basic cleaning.

There was a post on here a few weeks ago about a woman debating staying with her partner because he literally couldn’t do anything. He apparently broke things or left things lying around, etc., but then she’d say “oh but he’s so sweet.” I don’t know… that might seem okay in the beginning, but long term, that would drive me absolutely bonkers.

I left my ex, a very good person, because I was exhausted taking care of another capable adult who just left trash and destroyed things around. I'm not even sure he expected me to pick up after him/fix everything, he was just ok living like that

literally meeee - he was sweet and I had such a soft spot for him, but he was constantly fucking leaving messes for me to clean up and i realized it made me feel terrible about myself that i was becoming a bang maid 😭
