some really really important stuff

living with the bf is going great. well to be honest, its not much different from before, we still spent every night together before anyway. but its our house, all my stuff is in one place, more freedom with no housemate. its nice cooking together and everything more as well, since we always used to eat out for some reason.
there is one thing though, that is just bugging me out.
we dont have a dishwasher- fair enough, its only two of us and its best we dont to save water.
but he has a problem doing dishes. AGH.
we are sposed to take it in turns, fair right?
well, apparently not.
i do my turn fine, but he doesnt do them. until they pile up, and up, and u cant see anything but for dirty dishes. then i say- bf can u please do these?
'no i dont want to. ill do them tomorrow'.
and so it goes on, until eventually i get so frustrated (or someone is coming round and i have to) that i do them. and he KNOWS i will do them.
and i would refuse until he had to- but then if someone comes over, how embarrasing it that to have them there?!
ok granted- he has never had to do dishes, what with there was a dishwasher at his house before. but nevertheless its not that hard to LEARN. and adjust to have to do them...
it is infuriating! how do i force him to do them, without sounding like a nag?

Booo! Sometimes boys are so annoying. Just yell at him and tell him it's half of his responsbility!

But, yay for living together and having more freedom and such. That's awesome.

Boys can be slobs that way... I think you just have to have a serious talk with him. Switch up some other chores or something so you're FORCED to take turns.

Yay that things are otherwise going swimmingly!
