Are you going to start banning?

I know, the neediness is palpable. Go on, get your glad rags on, pop down the docks, don a bag and I am sure there's some somalian tulip house cleaner who would lower his standards enough to give you 13 seconds of relief. Plenty of lube mind; it's been a while.

Repetitive, aggressive and bigoted?

Swoon!

Swoon!

Bigotted? Nope, just pointing out the most likely place you'll get relief; that's helpful, no?

You were the one begging for a shag now.

All very good this meeting him head on but the most dangerous and difficult type of person to deal with is one that doesn't care. If he doesn't care about the washing and it really doesn't touch his morals at all then you are on a lost cause. A decent person would obviously find resolution because they have a limit and when reached will do the sensible thing and back down.

Some that doesn't care and can let all this wash over them is just the worst possible scenario. There will be no reasoning with him, no point threatening him with violence, rent arrears or anything. He just doesn't care.

I would say, if he is this type of person you have to leave him to it and leave. To him it is admitting defeat and he has won but don't look at it as defeat, just another approach to a problem that isn't resolvable in any other way. It's not about winning a fight, it's about doing the best for yourself and sometimes in the long run that is sucking it up and moving on even if that incurs some financial loss or hassle. Life is too short and any 'victory' in this situation will be a hollow one.
