Controlling for being angry at DH using oven

Dh likes to eat healthily which means he never fries any food. Even the 1 cal spray is not acceptable. Fine.

But DH knows I’m very funny about the heat. Hate it and do very well to keep a cool house. I’m the person who goes around closing curtains, opening windows at the optimal time to keep things cool.

Just got off a work call to a sauna downstairs. DH has made himself a fry up (chicken sausages, egg, mushrooms, tomatoes). The kitchen is reading 26c - it was 22.5c when I looked at around 12 pm.

I told dh that this was really selfish behaviour. And now I’ve been called controlling.

Wtf? He’s not allowed to cook a meal in your own kitchen? That is controlling. It’s not like he’s cranked the central heating up to 30 degrees. He’s prepared a meal!

Yabu and controlling.

Are you insane? Buy a fan

So can he never use the oven unless you 'let' him? I think that's actually the very definition of controlling.
