My mission on Advicenators is to be honest. People lie when they answer because they want to be rated high, but I think people ask strangers on Advicenators things because they want an honest answer.My alias is Farren, and I'm in 9th grade. I think I'm mature for my age, but that could just be self-dilusion. I believe that everyone is in some way self-dilusional. So yeah, ask me a question if you want.

I'm 19/f and I live with my bf, his grandparents, and his aunt (who is 40 something I might add). I love his family so much, but sometimes they get on my nerves. His aunt can be down right nasty sometimes, and I don't know what to do about it! She threw a fit this morning because I left out the HOT dishes after making dinner last night and went to bed without putting them away. I'm very frequently left cleaning up after her (she cooks for other people, but never her own family) when she leaves "her" dishes in the sink for more than two weeks. She says she'll get to it, but two weeks??? I mean let's get real here. The grandparents are getting on in years, and I try to help out as much as possible. We all kinda share the grocery shopping, laundry, cooking and cleaning responsibilities, but there are no finite lines on who is responsible for what. I'm just frustrated and sorry I rambled. Any suggestions for dealing with the aunt would be appreciated.

Sorry hun, all families have problems like this. There are just some things about people you can't change. Talking to her might help, but after a while she will most likely go back to her same habits or she will get mad because of what you think of her in the first place. Maybe you should talk to your boyfriend about moving out, then she can live in her own misery and not affect your life, but you said you love his family, so you'll probably just end up trying to deal with it. I wish there was a solution to problems like this besides moving out, oh well.

(Rating: 4) You're right about probably just trying to deal with it. We're not quite financially stable enough to move out yet, but soon. Thank you for the advice.
