Whenever I hang a new loo roll I do it so the loose sheet hangs away from the wall as this is obviously correct. Then DH turns it round so the loose sheet hangs by the wall. So I change it back, and DH turns it round again. Every single time.

He has to be doing it deliberately. I should LTB, shouldn't I?

You're doing it the wrong way, your DH is correct!

Oh and YANBU. The only correct way to hang the paper is away from the wall ( easier to grab while reading instead of stroking the wall looking for it).

OP, you are wrong. I actually feel sorry for you that you don't know it. Everyone's laughing at you.

Agree it should be away from the wall. All hotels do it that way.

Divorce him on the grounds of very unreasonable behaviour. He's enforcing his fecking way so you might throw in a bit of EA as well during your free 30 minutes at SHL

DH is wrong and so are all others on this thread saying it should roll towards the wall - that's just daft. They are probably all cat lovers too.

You are right. Don't LTB yet, fold the ends into a nice point like they do in hotels. That will really wind him up.

But it's so unsatisfyingly messy when the end hangs away from the wall.

You're a scruff and so are all you YANBUs!

You're right. Much easier to grab, and as another poster said, that's how hotels always have the loo roll. Though I suppose if you have a cat/ dog/ toddler who likes to unravel loo roll, I can see the logic in having it hanging towards the wall.

He sounds very stubborn. (Ignores OP showing equal determination). And you are doing it the way I do right, of course. Halo
