I don't think that is a good idea.

Its quite clear what i mean. I SAID IT WAS A TENDON!. The patella ...a tendon...could not be more clear.

ILoveYourVibes wrote: » The patella tendon the patellar tendon the patellar ligament ..all the same thing. They are called this ..because its all related to the patella bone. Who would think the patella bone is a tendon? You maybe.

He happened to be right beside me moping the floor, and he noticed the milk spill. So, he gets the mop and wipes the milk spill on the bottom part of the shelf of the fridge with the mop, and then the milk spill on the floor. I was like what are you doing, and he was like, what? Looking puzzled. He cannot fill out any sort of forms himself, like official forms for employment or any sort of government forms. I had to go through them with him and explain what they were asking him about. Doesn't know what to say to a girl, in terms of trying to chat her up, as he asked me about what he should say. I had to show him how to clean the house, and how to use a cloth when cleaning a surface. Cannot order a delivery for food over the phone. Was unable to order oil for the house, even after I explained it to him. Came into the house recently with gloves on due to the virus, opens the front door with them on, puts on the kettle, uses his phone etc. I had to ask him if he could remove the gloves before he comes into the house, and I had to explain to him why he needed to do that. Wearing a mask that only covers his mouth. I've lived with him for a few years, and seriously lately he's very difficult to live with because of his lack of basic common sense and stupidity.Ever come across anyone this stupid?

The sink in the bathroom was recently blocked, and was full of water, so he decided to have a look at it. Within 15 minutes I heard him banging the bottom of the basin of the sink with his hand, I guess to try to push the water down the plug hole. I saw him doing this, and I was like how is that going to help?

Mellor wrote: » Yes, "...the patella, a tendon." is exactly what you said. Which is incorrect as you know. I pointed it out because you seemed to be a stickler for detail. Not because I thought that you didn't know the difference. It's ok to make mistakes. Instead of saying "sorry, my mistake, I meant bone", you run a different thread and making up a different story/personal attack. That's bizarre behavior.

He's 27 and still a virgin. He's lived here for nearly 5 years, and has never had a girl stay overnight, ever. That might be by choice, but seriously, he just does not know what to say to a girl or even how to approach one.
