Today, my boyfriend set up a very romantic dinner. Afterwards, he offered to wash the dishes while I went upstairs and relaxed. His way of washing the dishes was to scrape all the food off, then wipe the juices off the dishes with a paper towel before putting them back in the cupboards. FML

Today, my boyfriend did the washing as an attempt to help me. Not only are all my clothes now pink, he refuses to do the dishes, vacuuming, bathroom, ironing etc., as he has done "plenty." FML

Today, I was quietly admiring my boyfriend from outside the kitchen as he made us dinner, only to witness him drop a load of spaghetti on the floor, swear, then scoop it all up and place it back on the plate. FML

Today, I explained to my man child of a boyfriend that we don't reuse dirty dishes. We have to wash them. He doesn't think it's gross and yelled at me, throwing the pan in the sink. Oh, he also refuses to wash dishes. FML

Today, I woke up early and made my boyfriend french toast. When he woke up, he yelled at me because it was his dish day and I was creating more dishes for him to do. He made me do the dishes. FML

Today, my boyfriend was serving dinner, and decided to circle the table with my son's plate while making UFO noises. My son grabbed at the plate and spilled it, making a huge mess. They both decided that I should clean it up. FML

Today, our dishwasher broke. It's my husband's chore to do the dishes, but he refused to hand-wash them, and instead suggested we take them all up to his mother's for her to put in her dishwasher. FML

Today, I discovered that my boyfriend, the one who does all the cooking in the house, doesn't wash his hands after using the bathroom. FML

Today, I washed all the dishes that had been piling in the sink over the week, and set them in the drying rack before I left for school. I came home to see that my dad’s girlfriend had put them back into the sink, along with her dirty dishes. She told me to re-wash them. Why? “They didn’t smell clean.” FML

I cant believe some people think he actually tried to do the dishes. He obviously made no attempt to clean them properly and just wanted to look like a good bf so he could get a certain favour (dick sucking) in return. Washing dishes is not hard, if he really didn't want to do them then leave them til the morning. A half assed attempt is worse than no attempt.

How is he attempting to "hurry up" or try to do a half assed job? it honestly sounds like it takes a lot more time than just washing it. It sounds like he's just a bit dumb to me, I can't see how this is trying to "hurry up".

he did a half assed job because he chose to do the dishes in such a way that would give his girlfriend more work. He was not being dumb any idiot can was a plate. Why are so many people defending him.

Oh, come on, this is not a FML. He set up the romantic dinner... just thank him for that. Talk to him about washing the dishes some other time.

Washing dishes is not that hard; your boyfriend is either extremely incompetent or just straight out lazy. I'd hate to image what his own place is/was like considering his lack of cleanliness, probably moldy and full of bacteria. And for those who are saying she should be grateful he tried, no. He shouldn't have even offered if he wasn't going to do it right, so useless.
