That's a bit odd (pun wasn't intended), who buys one beer from a shop, even if it's to supplement others bought earlier? I think you're the infuriating one here. In role reversal, if I get asked what I want for any meal, the answer is always "a surprise". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bernardblack Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 The above post shows one of the behaviours I just wouldn’t be having. Can’t believe you actually went back out to get something else. Agreed. Have a word 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Aldo Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I'll make things for dinner and she'll ask if I can make a wee bit extra so she can take some to work for her lunch. I've no problem with this so will make a wee bit extra and put it into tubs for her. The other week I cleared out the freezer and there was tubs full of stuff going back months that she was "taking for lunch". I'm talking at least 10 tupperware tubs going back potentially 6 months or so. Why ask me to make extra if it then just goes to waste? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) Waits till the last minute to get ready to leave the house despite the fact it always takes her forever to get ready. Also the performance of returning to the house once we are outside incase she's left something on or the front door unlocked, check it before you leave.

If she goes on her own I can almost time the phone call asking me to go and check they're off. Always the straighteners. My better half has a heat proof mat thing they can be rolled up in and put away straight after use, i have pointed out that if she did this instead of leaving them lying at her arse she would know they were safely put away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florentine_Pogen Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Nonsense. It was invented by former Blackburn, Aberdeen and Everton striker Mike Newell after playing in a friendly against Bury in 1997. He misspelled his name on the patent application after becoming distracted by team mate Ilian Kiriakov who had spilled a glass or red wine on his new white living room carpet whilst filling the patent application form.“Facts That You Made Up” thread for this pish........[emoji41] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florentine_Pogen Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 She has decided that she doesn't like pizza, so if I want a pizza for tea she usually has a ready meal. She won't go in and buy one though. I have to do that. I also have to go in with the vaguest instructions available. Tonight's was "something with penne" As a loving and attentive husband, I remembered her express dislike of chicken arrabiata from when I bought that about a year ago, and remembered her saying she likes something with a creamy sauce, so I selected a chicken and bacon penne bake (out of the standard range, not the basics). Of course as soon as I get it home I should have known that she wanted something tomatoey. I mentioned the penbe bolognese bake, which caused offence because of something. Apparently I know she likes chicken in tomato sauce. The plan was agreed that she'd get the kids off to bed while I nipped to the shop again. Getting the kids to bed appears to have involved leaving them downstairs scrapping while she had a lie down. In response to these indignities I intend to leave the toilet seat up as a passive aggressive alternative to the Lester Nygaard approach.

Bairnardo Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Recently changed jobs. The main reason for which was to make Mrs B happy. Its nore complicated than that, but thats reason #1 why it happened. New job is on considerably less money so before accepting it this was explained. We will be ok, but we will have to watch what we are doing, especially for the first few months. And still the deliveries came. Fast forward a couple of months, add on a few hundred to the never never Next account, and I am in the new job, and deep into my overdraft for the first time in years. And still..... The deliveries come. What is it going to fucking take ffs. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the plus side you fulfill a pretty niche market, you'll rake it in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I don't understand - she is buying things for herself and you're going overdrawn?Just the general financial state of the house. Iv explained to her that to make the move, we will have less disposable income and will have to adjust our lifestyle accordingly. She agreed. She has made no such adjustments. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get her proper telt. Oh and FWIW, if my other half 'suggested' I take a job earning less because in some bizarre situation in her head it'll suit her better, my response would simply be "no". 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
