Ok so there is a slight chance I am being a bit hormonal here.
I am currently 31 weeks pregnant and living separately from my partner with retrospective parents. We are looking for a small place together for when baby is here and don't have much time. I enquired to some privately rented properties to set up viewings.
Hearing back from an estate agents today to check if we met the landlords criteria and once I told them I was expecting he asked my partners salary, was not interested in knowing mine. I informed him that I am the main earner, in fact could more than cover the rent just on mine and his response was 'well love unless you are superwoman you will be giving up work soon indefinitely so your salary is irrelevant'.
AIBU to think this was a really rude assumption to make?
He has no idea of my maternity package or intentions for how long I plan to be away from work and he has potentially written us off anyway. He has told me he will speak with the landlord and get back to me but I'm not holding out much hope now.
