Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Im a year older than my 20M boyfriend. Weve been together just under a year. I dont know if its the rose coloured glasses syndrome but I am starting to see that my bf lacks general life skills (washes dishes in cold water, no idea what a credit score is, does things half assed, etc). We have argued about it many times. The last time was over him half assing a few chores and I re-did the chores (this isnt a case of "my way or the highway" but right v wrong). He said some things that made me rethink my being with him.

His first defense "I didnt have to do those chores" (we dont live together). 

Sure. What about when we live together? Its still not ok to half-ass chores so that dishes are left greasy and the dogs mess still reeks after he "cleaned" them. 

He then said "sometimes i forget how to wash dishes, ok?". I was dumbfounded and the only thing i could say was "how old are you"? He told me that me saying this hurt his feelings. I just dont get it. He acts like a spoiled child. 

However, after the argument he admitted he was indeed a brat. He has been trying to grow up. I cant deny it. He took my trash out and washed the dishes in my sink the other day without me asking.

AITA for being upset with how he reacted to my arguments? AITA because I dont want to be his mom, even though he really is trying (for the time being) to do better?
