AITAH for telling my BF he can’t use my vehicle anymore to take his kids to school everyday (more info below)
She watched helplessly as the weight of his negligence piled up, the broken-down car a symbol of deeper issues left unaddressed.
Four years of love couldn’t mask the frustration of watching him avoid responsibility, refusing to care for som**hing that once mattered to him, now just a burden on their lives. The landlord’s ultimatum was the final spark in a tinderbox of tension.
Her efforts to fix what was broken—buying a new battery, trying to keep peace—felt like a lonely battle against his stubbornness and denial.
In the silence between them, the real problem lingered: a relationship strained by one person’s refusal to grow.

The original poster (OP) is feeling significant frustration and resentment because her boyfriend avoids taking responsibility for his derelict vehicle, forcing her to manage its storage and maintenance costs despite her efforts to help.
The central conflict lies between the OP's need for partnership, accountability, and financial respect, and her boyfriend's passive avoidance of his obligations, which leads the OP to feel used and taken for granted regarding her own property and resources.
Given that the boyfriend has shown no initiative to resolve the storage issue after seven months, should the OP immediately cease paying for the storage and take unilateral action (like towing the car to his mother's house) to force a resolution, or does she have an obligation to have one final, direct conversation es**blishing a strict d**dline before enacting such measures?
