Relationship Dilemmas and Red Flags

• 🚩 The first story features a 23-year-old woman whose 24-year-old boyfriend, who lives with his parents and has never done chores, wants to move in. His mother does everything for him and his brothers, leading to him being unable to perform basic tasks like frying an egg.
• 💰 The boyfriend offered to pay 75% of the rent if OP did all the chores, which she refused, stating she wanted a girlfriend, not a mother or maid. This led to a major argument and him giving her the silent treatment.
• 🧠 The boyfriend's parents are also criticized for not teaching him life skills, with his mother refusing to teach him basics even when he was 17 and considering moving out.
• 💔 Ultimately, OP broke up with her boyfriend after he suggested hiring a maid for his half of the chores, which she found to be a significant turn-off.

Uninvited Dorm Guest

• 🍳 Eve's mother is very nice, cooks and cleans, but hogs the kitchen and fridge space, and her presence violates dorm rules.
• 😟 The OP is hesitant to report Eve's mother for fear of her being put on the streets, but the situation escalates with unannounced visits from Eve's brother and the mother's excessive grocery shopping.
• 📢 The OP eventually reports the situation to the RA, leading to the mother's departure and the revelation that Eve had planned for her brother to also stay in the dorm.

• 😂 The mystery is resolved when he accompanies her and discovers the man is gay, and his wife was picking him up for a box fit class they both attend. The wife found his snooping and Reddit post amusing.
