Do you have a stoner ruining your life?

    My OH is the most unmotivated selfish life sucking waster I've ever met. I'll be done for murder eventually. Can't do the simplest thing like cleaning up after himself. And any important stuff like funerals/weddings, lets me down every time. He didn't even come to my ma's funeral.

    Anyone else got this problem and anyone got any ideas how to scrape this Sh!t off or at least make things change?

    Nope. I know plenty of alcoholics ruining other peoples lives though.

    Leave him, it's unlikely you'd regret it.

    Why don't you just break up with him if he's that bad?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,611 ✭✭✭david75


    Would if I didn't need him for his half of the rent.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,273 ✭✭✭EuskalHerria


    There's every chance him/her being a stoner is irrelevant. Sounds like a lazy ba$tard.

    Not when it suits him. That's the sad part.

    Stop using somebody who's clearly not the right guy for you.
    Leave him, sort out alternative living arrangements, and move on with your life.

    Eh simples if you are that unhappy leave him. Many stoners are so averse to change that it might take losing you (or at least the threat thereof) to force him to change.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,496 ✭✭✭Boombastic


    Tbh, he just sounds like a lazy, selfish pr#£k

    Ah, I see you need him for half the rent, that makes you a prostitute...sorry :(

    I'm so sorry he let you down that way. You deserved better: you deserved support and care through a difficult time. I hope you're doing okay.

    There is no way to make him change if he doesn't want to. You have to make the change.

    Leave him. Now.

    Ain't the weed, he was like that anyway.

    Have you had a proper, laying-down-the law chat with him? I understand your frustration at him, but saying you won't break up with him because of the rent looks user-ish and kinda cowardly tbh.
    If you're not going to finish with him, then what can people advise you other than having that chat with him?

    So many times. To no avail. My friend said to me the other day 'if you put up with it, it'll continue'
    Need to snap out of it. I've had enough.

    I have a strong suspicion he was a selfish, lazy asshole before he discovered weed.

    Do we have a record for least AH type responses to an AH thread?
    I expected this to make me laugh:)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 9,425 ✭✭✭FearDark


    It's not weed, he's just an ass.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,106 ✭✭✭catallus


    OP you need to watch a documentary called "Reefer Madness", it will open your eyes and change your life.

    How can you let this hedonist destroy your sense of well being?

    I bet he's well able to get off the couch when he is running low on blow.

    Weed might make you lazy, but the selfishness was there first.

    We can do jokes if you want jokes?

    Only went the sincere route because your post sounded so sad. Sorry *hugs*

    Ok... jokes. Jokes. Monkey jokes, maybe?

    It gets delivered. To our door. I'm not joking. By my mates husband. So it's a minefield cos I'm resenting them for supplying him. No holidays. **** furniture. No nights out. Nothing. My mates he all his disposable income basically.
    It's festering in my head.

    Two stoners walk into a bar. The first one goes "Dude we just walked into a bar" and the other one goes "I bet if i wasn't so baked that would have hurt." It was an iron bar.

    Better?

    Have you kicked him out yet?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,067 ✭✭✭✭Mr. CooL ICE


    Burn his house down.

    Oh, wait...

    How do you know you're a true stoner?
    When you're bong gets washed more than you're dishes.

    Sounds like my ex :( I had to pay him to go to his own sons christening.

    He started getting violent and beating me, I left him and have the perfect life now. Im with someone who Im madly in love with, he treats me like a princess, not by buying me material things...just by being there for me, especially with my depression.

    Move on, you wont regret it. The longer youre with him the more it will affect you long term.

    My OH would kick me out the door if I didn't clean up after myself or socialize with her and shes damn right. Whats the point otherwise?

    Try it, start laying down the law and stand up for yourself and you will see how much of a man he is then;)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,611 ✭✭✭david75


    Thanks folks. I'd leave right now except I love this house and put so much work into it. Getting him to leave is the tricky bit. We've come close but there's usually a last minute reprieve.
    I probably just have to move. Or at least be seen to look
