my precious armadillo if this dude isn't neurodivergent, mentally ill or a major god of sex why the ever loving fuck do you put up with these shenanigans.
Like, His Lordship is three for three and I'd still be putting a foot up his arse here.
This.
It's a combination of the first two I think, lol. Also it is his family home we're living in. There are times I've thought, if the kids weren't so connected to the area and dependent on me, and I had the financial means, I'd be gone. My MIL is leaving it to the children in a trust with me as administrator, as she doesn't trust him to not be stupid somehow and fuck it up. He isn't malicious, which is frustrating, it's like the older he gets the more stupid he gets and I thought people were supposed to get wiser and I don't understand it at all.
Has anyone actually tried to get him to see someone for assessment? I know its like pulling teeth (I'm in the process of practically having to bully His Lordship into his formal ADHD paperwork) but that shit definitely DOES get worse as you get older and chances are that none of you have to put up with it - there's stuff you can do
