I 25F am getting overwhelmed by the amount of dog sitting because of 31M choices.
Basically, my boyfriend took up Rover to help with his loan debt, but it's also beneficial for me, alleviating my boredom and loneliness at home. I'm on the spectrum but also have social anxiety. I get overwhelmed by sound, especially loud sounds like barking, and also by a lot of stuff going on at once. Not to mention, my neighbor will report us if there's too much barking. And the dogs don't listen to me. I'm feeling quite overwhelmed already because March is nearly fully booked with dogs, and my boyfriend keeps accepting more dogs on top of it. I told him I wanted a break from it. My own dad has told him to steadily do dog bookings and not take everything at once. His own mother has also told him to tone it down. But he won't listen. I don't have a job, but too much is too much. How can I help him listen more? Or so..advice
Stay elsewhere for at least a month. Your boyfriend didn't take up Rover. Your boyfriend is scamming people. He's taking on more jobs than he can handle and forcing YOU to do the work. You need to let him face the consequences of his poor decisions. Find elsewhere to stay for a month or so, like back with your parents. This is not your job. Don't make it your job. Use the peace of staying elsewhere as a chance to get a job you can actually handle. Part of the reason he may not be listening is that he's supporting 3 adults and appears to be the only one contributing financially. He's probably panicking and feeling a ton of pressure. Lightening his financial load would also help here.
