11 Women Share What Made Living With A Partner Absolutely Impossible

While live in relationships are a great way to figure out whether you and your partner are compatible in the long run. It can also end in disappointment, in a realisation that you cannot fathom being with your partner for a long period of time. And this Reddit thread where women have shared the things that made living with a partner absolutely impossible is proof of exactly this.

Here, read on to know more:

1. “The breaking point for me was standing in the kitchen early one morning, wanting to make him a cup of tea to take it to him in bed (as usual), but trying to work out which would get me told off less… Taking it in the wrong mug (not his favourite) or making a noise washing and drying his favourite mug first. Either way, I would get told off, but which was the lesser of the two evils? I realised how fucking horrible he was to me, and that was the beginning of me getting rid of him. It took a long time.”

2. “This is the controlling experience I had. Nothing was good enough. Always shifting expectations. It was driving me insane. After deactivating all social media and granting him access to my phone 24/7, he wanted proof that I wasn’t accessing anything through a secret browser. I don’t even know what a secret browser is. 4 years down the line, I felt suffocated in a home I provided solely for, because he said I was triggering his insecurities.”

3. “Not lifting a finger to clean up after themselves, including not cleaning the toilet after use, not picking up their laundry, not rinsing a cup, not filling up my car after using it to show off to their mates, not throwing empty food packaging in the bin, I could go on all day. This was another woman.”

5. “He was a slob in the most inconsiderate way. Taking off his clothes after work and leaving them in a pile next to the dining room table. The house was not that big, and he could not walk 10 feet to his bedroom to put them there.”

6. “It was a wildly controlling and psychologically abusive relationship with hints of violence here and there. A shove, throwing things at me, putting his hands over my face so I could not breathe. There is no doubt in my mind I would have been killed or catastrophically injured had I not escaped his grip on me at that exact moment.”

7. “I was 5 months post partum with our second and my ex mowed the lawn ONCE that summer. It was an electric mower and our front yard is small, it’s a 15-minute job, max.”

8. “High-functioning alcoholism. He thought since he kept his fancy IT job he didn’t have a drinking problem despite passing out on the bathroom floor on the regular.”

10. “He would lotion his feet and then walk on my pillow. Our bed was on the floor but it was possible to walk around it instead of a shortcut via walking on the bed. It’d been one too many times. I told him it was gross and his response was ‘Just flip it over.'”

11. “I didn’t leave then but I should have at the exact point he told me that he shouldn’t have to do more than half the chores even though he was unemployed (and not doing anything about it) and I was working two part-time jobs to pay for our rent/bills while being a full-time student and starting my own business, plus doing my half of the chores. (And let’s be real- most of his half too).”
