I'm dating a guy who is a procrastinator in some aspects. I'm more of a planner so we often face conflicts, but I've been trying to be more understanding. One thing that frustrates me lately is that he's been driving with an expired license for almost a month. He's actually driving with an expired license from another state because he moved recently.
I know he's very busy at work, and for that reason, I reminded him before it expired and again on the expiration date. I tried to control myself and mentioned it only twice after it expired. His excuse is that he's busy and he can't do more than two things at a time because he's not good at multitasking. At one point, he did go but he forgot to take a document. I sent him a list of things to take but he is forgetful sometimes.
A part of it, I think, is that he doesn't think it's a big deal. He's not always a procrastinator but for things like this, he is. I try not to mind his business but sometimes it's not easy to do that. I try because I can be control freak from his perspective. However, I don't understand why he's stressing himself out when he could've just renewed it during the past month and just be done with it. He knew he was going to be busy this month and will be busy for next few months as well.
The question is: Am I overreacting if I tell him I can't sit in his car because he's technically driving illegally?
