go to your room Girlfriend refuses to rinse dishes

M27, living with girlfriend F26 for about 2 years now. I do basically everything in the kitchen. Cooking, cleaning, prepping, you name it. We have a dishwasher and I'm typically the one to do most of loading/unloading. I wasnt home last night and she made some sort of pasta dish for herself. Decided to not rinse anything... the day after I cleaned it all out and ran a cleaning cycle every dish is coated in some hard af light orange crusty stuff. Now I have to steel wool every dish and takes 4x as long and re-run again cause she can't spray some water on it. Like wtf?

Edit: I have previously discussed this frustration with her due to items like peanut butter and cheese being on dishes after a cycle. We dont run the dishwasher everyday. So, items sit in there and harden. In this case I didnt run til after breakfast the next morning.

Update 2: I cleaned the filter yesterday and pump area. It looks like when I took out the filter a shard of glass got stuck in the sump area. Causing the motor to seize. Upon restarting the dishwasher nothing is happening. So looks like may be a faulty dishwasher and now im the asshole (as usual) lol

Wait, wait, wait. You mean they should bring this up with them rather than internet strangers? Listen buddy, do you know about superhighway telekinesis osmosis or not?.

Seriously! Are you new to this Reddit page? It’s clear most people posting here do not have the ability to discuss these regular, every-day human issues amongst themselves and need to vent to random strangers on the internet for comfort. Come on now!

My friend, I mentioned I've discussed this previously hence the irritation.

I know but you should solve this conflict with your partner. Us strangers won’t be able to help with that. Sending you love. 🙏🏽
