Pack-rat husband

Laura

Hi all, just looking for advice. I have always been a tidier person than my husband and when we have too much clutter in the house I go through things and reorganize and identify things that need to be thrown out or donated. I don’t do this with my husband’s things and he refuses to go through his things. For example, he has many socks and underwear with holes in them so he’s bought new pairs….several months ago….and won’t let us let go of the old ones. He also has more clothes than I do, some from high school that he will never fit in again but won’t go through them. For the most part I’ve accepted this but then other times get frustrated that I can’t ever bring it up without him getting so defensive. Our house is becoming so cluttered and I need more room for our new baby. Help
