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.

you should tell the aunt how you are feeling and that you cant take on so many responsibilities at once. You have more in your life then cleaning up after everybody and doing everything for everybody. My friend has an aunt just like that. she will yell at you for no reason. i went with my friend to her aunts new years party and i got yelled at for not using my fork and not eating a cookie. That was the first time she had met me also so i was scared to tell her to lay off but it seems like you have known this aunt for a while and i think you would be able to get through to her.
