Shotgun Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 "I'm not hungry" is wumminspeak for "I don't want to make dinner." In my experience; once dinner's on the go, they get hungry very quickly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blootoon87 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 She’s put the heating on. It’s fucking June. She left for work at 1.30, I came home at 7.30 and she'd left the heating on all day and the bathroom light on.Seething. You can tell she doesn't pay the energy bills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Shaker Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Putting things in the oven on a layer of tin foil because ‘it’ll save the baking tray from getting mucky and me from having to washing it’. 1 - does it f**k2 - we’ve lived in this house for four years and a week and she’s washed the dishes approximately six times, and even then they’re not dried and put away and she uses them out of the rack til they’re dirty again. The tin foil thing is a habit she picked up from her mother, who still does it despite the father-in-law losing his shit on a regular basis about it. Pretty sure they’re just doing this for fun now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was about to post something similar. I will usually bit a bit of foil in the grill pan under the actual tray to catch fat and make it easier to clean. Repeatedly, she puts a layer of foil on the grill so anything being grilled just sits frying in its own fat. In fact this is annoying me so much right now I’m not going to post any further on the matter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, my wife can be like that occasionally, although in fairness, due to her sjogrens, which affects her taste and smell, which means she might fancy something but when it's made it doesn't smell right/taste right. However, it annoys me when I say I'm making chips, do you want some. "Yes", so I make enough for everyone, then she doesn't want any as she has enough on her plate already, or even worse, "No", and then after I divvy up the chips "They look nice, are there any chips left?". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She wants some, that’s fine as you’ve made enough. She doesn’t want some, extra chips for everyone else - nobody is turning down extra chips. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nsr Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 My wife is doing Slimming World and often insists that I make her a separate meal as what I'm making for the family is too fattening. Usually it's a Slimming World ready meal (whatever, just bang it in the microwave). Then one evening I go to make myself a tasty snack of Nutella on a toasted muffin, only to find that the gigantic jar of Nutella I purchased recently is down to the scrapings because she has it on her breakfast every morning after I leave for work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came home last night having been in a T-shirt all day and a bit sweaty to find her curled up on the couch with a blanket round her telling me she's "freezing". For people who've read my comments before yes the lamp was on even though the light was pouring in the French doors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
