Sorry I know these posts pop up all of the time (at least posted on here saves me digging up the patio to hide the body later)
So I have been with my OH a long time and over the years she has driven me nuts and there have been points where we haven’t spoken for ages.
It’s OH birthday soon and today she has asked me if he would like a book for his birthday? To which I have replied I doubt it. OH doest read and would have no interest in it. and it would just collect dust and eventually piss me off and end up in the charity shop.
Then she changes tone and says that’s she is getting him one to and starts an argument about it because she doesn’t like the answer given.
This is a common occurrence with her that she doesn’t listen to what your saying and does what she wants anyway or then claims that the conversation hasn’t happened.
Would I be a complete CF to tell her that all the gift sets we get given for birthday and Xmas go to a food bank and all the other shit they buy goes straight to the charity shop!
I always ask for vouchers for us usually because they don’t cause clutter again this falls on deaf ears!
Short of burying her under the patio how do I get her to stop and listen?
