[ Marriage & Divorce ] Open Question : Personal hygiene and fixing messes issue, how to go about it?

Hi. I’ve been married for about 3 years now, I am a SAHM with a little girl. My husband has always been messy, so before you say it, I knew who I was marrying. The last year, it has become unbearable and disgusting though. He wakes up every day to go to work at 5 in the morning. I have to spend 1-1.5 hours afterwards, fixing the mess he created. I know it’s early and I know he is messy. But I have to clean his toothpaste from the floor because he didn’t aim well at the sink and spat it out. I have to wipe the water he showered in from the same floor, he floods the entire floor with it. I have to pick up his dirty underwear because he can’t take them himself and put them in the laundry basket which is right next to the shower. I have to pick up his dirty earbuds from the floor!!! He smokes in our little bathroom with a tiny ventilator and the room reeks with smoke every time me or or little girl goes in. I have asked him COUNTLESS times to NOT do that. He keeps on doing it. It’s ridiculous. I don’t mind fixing his messes like crums on the floor from eating or a dirty cup of coffee or dishes or fold clothes, etc, normal things SAH wives do. But the things he leaves are really disgusting and I don’t want to be doing them. I think he is a grown man and he can fix his own PERSONAL and private messes. I keep thinking to myself, I AM NOT YOUR MOTHER. I am your WIFE. I think he got a bit too comfortable with me. Plus, I have my child to take care of as well. I want to talk to him about this but I don’t know how to go about it. Any suggestions? Thanks.

[ Politics ] Open Question : Isn’t it more rational to assume abiotic oil is true and drill for it than listen to the left and not?

If Abiotic Oil is not true and you drill, then you will just drill for oil But if Abiotic Oil is true and you do not drill for oil, the oil will erupt from the Earth’s surface like it did in Deepwater Horizon, but worse, and flood the Earth, killing all life So, with this is mind, it is indisputable that it is reasonable, no, the only reasonable thing is to believe in Abiotic Oil and drill it from now until forever to keep the oil from flooding the entire planet. FACT.

[ Friends ] Open Question : Should I try and mend our relationship?

First, let me clarify, no, this is not about some ex-boyfriend. An old friend of mine (we used to be extremely close) has kind of drifted away from me, and I never minded much until today. We used to hang out all the time, and she’s one of the few people I really care about, and also one of the ones I care the most about. We drifted apart, and since I’m not one to take action, I just let it happen and never really thought about it ever again. But she’s very dear to me, and for the first few weeks I lit up every time I saw her and waved hello, or something else of the sort. Now I’ve just totally forgotten about her. But today, I was looking around my room for these rocks, and I found an old gift she gave me in fifth grade. Everything flooded back, all of our shared memories together, and I burst into tears. I realize now how much it hurts me to not have her as a friend, but it’s been so long, and I have this feeling that she doesn’t care about me anymore. I probably shouldn’t be in her life anyway- she has all the friends she needs, and I feel like I would just be getting in the way if I tried to mend it. I don’t know what to do- give in to selfishness, and try to mend it, or move on and let her live her life?
