Aw. At least he has good intentions, and that was rather sweet.

But it just sounds like a frustrating situation overall - I think people who live like that don't realize how it affects people around them; it's very unpleasant, all the time, and not considerate roommate (lack of) behavior.

Tbh, I think before now he's always had someone to nag him constantly or do everything for him.

He seems genuinely confused that you have to clean certain things. He walked in on me cleaning food splatter off the microwave door, and was like "what are you doing? you don't need to clean that. it's an appliance."

I was like "uhh they don't clean themselves. where did you think the curry crust you leave in here disappears to?"

He also didn't realise you have to empty the drip tray attachment on a meat rack. He kept using it in the oven by putting fresh foil over the top part. It was solid grease by the time I finally found it.

Wow. Now I feel really bad for him. Sounds like he was raised with no sense of cleanliness. :/

I think it's more that he was raised with his mother and older sister doing everything for him, and then my mum doing everything for him because even with constant supervision he has no common sense whatsoever. I don't even know how to explain it. It's like unless he believes something is beneficial to him, he has no interest in it or even basic awareness. He's very social and comes off as very intelligent and charismatic, but if you're alone with him and he doesn't want something from you, you may as well not exist.

He's always accused me of sneaking up on him when I've been in the same room with him for sometimes an hour and he just hasn't registered my presence. He doesn't read books or have any kind of emotion unless he has an audience. It's a bit like living with an alien trying to imitate a human life form. He doesn't seem sure what people are supposed to do in their own homes, nor does he want to learn.

That's kind of what I meant though - if you're raised in an environment where everyone does everything for you even when you're an adult, you never learn to really take care of yourself beyond the very basics.

He sounds rather odd.

He is! Nobody else sees it though.

Idk. I guess it's extra annoying because if I don't know how to do something, I at the very least attempt to teach myself. He just doesn't. He can't screw in a lightbulb. He. Literally. Cannot. Screw. In. A. Lightbulb.

It got to the point where there was only one light working downstairs (out of 6 downlights in the living room, kitchen, laundry, stairs, and dining room) and a table lamp in the living room and he still didn't make the connection between something needing to be done and him being the only one in the house physically capable of doing it. I asked, I begged, I nagged. I gave very simple instructions on how to change the bulbs. I brought the stepladder directly to his lounge and the spare bulbs.

He has no problem with ladders. No phobias. No injuries. I've seen him get up to hang banners at parties. He would just rather live in the dark than get up and do something about it.

It's like living with a slug. I'm surprised his brain and limbs haven't atrophied from lack of use.

/rant

Man he's going to be in a world of hurt if/when you move out.

He's a little too happy about me being sick and having nobody else offering to let me stay with them.
I'm too grateful to be weirded out. I would assume he was poisoning me to keep me around, but he's too lazy to plan anything that elaborate.
