ADVERTIsem*nT
Moving in with your partner can be an incredibly exciting time, as it means finally taking your relationship to the next step. But it can also be extremely stressful. Pet peeves suddenly become apparent, and compromises seem to be constantly creeping up. While most couples find a way to work through this rocky period, sometimes we immediately know it’s time to call it quits.
After an argument about laundry between one woman and her boyfriend escalated, she decided it would be best to get out and never look back. Below, you’ll find the full story that she shared on Reddit, as well as a conversation between Bored Panda and couples therapist Dr. Kathy McMahon.

Howdy, I'm Adelaide! I'm originally from Texas (yeehaw!), but after graduating from university with an acting degree, I relocated to sunny Los Angeles for a while. I then got a serious bite from the travel bug and found myself moving to Sweden and England before settling in Lithuania about two years ago. I'm passionate about animal welfare, sustainability and eating delicious food. But as you can see, I cover a wide range of topics including drama, internet trends and hilarious memes. I can easily be won over with a Seinfeld reference, vegan pastry or glass of fresh cold brew. And during my free time, I can usually be seen strolling through a park, playing tennis or baking something tasty.

Probably not a coincidence that he let this side of him slip after she'd moved in. He knew that she'd have left long ago if he'd shown her his nature before then.

I thought the exact same thing. He held it in until they moved in together. Phew, that was a scary story.

Currently there title of this article is "Woman Breaks Up With Her Neurotic Boyfriend After Laundry Incident". First of all the behaviour that caused her to leave is not neurotic. She didn't leave because he had anxiety, depression or other health conditions, she left because of aggressive and controlling behaviour. Please don't imply people with mental health conditions are violent or controlling. Secondly this kind of downplaying indicators of dangerous behaviour only perpetuates tha abuse cycle. Try "woman leaves partner at first signs of abuse" you can even add, his reaction proves she did the right thing and she was being filmed without her consent, if you need to. But don't try to normalise controlling and aggressive behaviour by pretending that's what neurotlsis is. The partner may be neurotic, but don't confuse those two. Do better.

Yes this!! The language on the title is incredibly problematic. Can we please just stop hiding and downplaying just how serious this c**p is, and be open.Your title suggestion is far more accurate and appropriate and using the right language will help others
