It's not like you have to convince them of anything, or even really discuss it if you don't want to. Stick to the general, "We're not teenagers anymore", "Obviously I've changed since I was a kid", "Time moves on", or even just, "LOL, no." Then change the subject.

You know, you're pretty much past the proposal part. One of you has proposed living together, she's basically proposed you get married if you want that to happen, and you said no.

You're at at impasse, so unless she can accept a marriage proposal from you and agree to live together as an engaged couple (for at least a year, with a firm date to either set a wedding date or break up) it sounds like this isn't going to work.

It's not "helping" you. That implies keeping a clean environment is your job. It's "pulling his weight", and he's not doing it. You two (not just you) need to make a schedule or chore chart or something.

This will be your life if you don't nip it in the bud. And God forbid you have kids.

Do you want a partner that's happy with you doing all the work? No thanks.
