Beyond fed up of DH’s dispute with neighbour

"I’ll let you have a go on my missus if you ask nicely’ and then said he was joking and in his dreams.
Any advice? I’m sick of hearing about it!!"

This is how your husband speaks about you and your issue is that you are fed up of hearing about the dispute? Clearly you are focusing on the wrong problem, your husband is vile.

Parking is one of the most common causes for disputes and in many cases neither is wrong, more the roads weren't built to accommodate the amount of cars now. Still, some people are selfish and this is reflected by their choices to park.

Who's gonna win if these 2 cave men come to blows?

THIS!
Not sure the neighbour’s van is really the issue here OP 😂

Hey OP

This man is doing nothing wrong and your husband is a misogynistic cunt.

Hth x

Your husband said what now? Forget the parking, that’s minor compared to that statement

I'm sorry you have a husband like that and the other man seems like a right ass as well. I'd be mortified if my husband said that. I think I would probably end things or I would really be considering how he values you in this relationship. Xx that was really disrespectful.

Anyway, are you able to extend the gate/opening to the driveway so you can pull out at more of an angle? Unfortunately if it's the other side of the road I don't think there's any laws against it if it isn't a dropped curb. It's something we are currently considering as my partner has a really long Audi. I'm fine with my wee nissan note but we need one of use to have a car with a big boot as we've got a toddler and a baby.

I think his comment about his missus tells us all we need to know.

@Overwhelmedandunderfed tbh I (female) have a problem with anyone parking outside my house but I argue with them in my head 🤣

Man math 😂😂😂 like that one, ill use it myself (can't wait for the right context to pop up when I'm with my friends!)

Another bit of misandry from me I’m afraid. I’ve lived with 3 men in my life so far. My Dad and 2 male partners of 10+ years each. All 3 of them have had an issue with parking! So in my experience most men have a problem with parking and it’s ridiculous and part of the reason I believe women are superior in every single way. My Dad used to get mad if anyone parked at the end of his drive (perfectly legal and he was still able to get in and out, it caused very minimal inconvenience to him) but he was still furious every time it happened. Ex partner used to get mad that the neighbour parked in the ‘spare’ parking lay-by that you get on newer estates that are for anyone so again perfectly legal and a bit unfair that is was outside our window but hey that’s life. Current partner gets mad if someone has more than 2 cars in their family parked on our street - we have 3!!!! Make it make sense?!?

To summarise your husband is a twat but I think most of them are. I’m sure someone will come and tell me that’s not their experience I’m sure but if you have a good man don’t advertise him is my advice! Ha.

This is exactly it.

I wouldn't care less about the parking part if I heard my husband objectify me like that

Your husband told the neighbour (and all other neighbours) that he could have sex with you if he stopped parking his van opposite your drive, which is legally parked anyway?

Even if this was meant to be a joke (??!!), I would be thinking very hard about my marriage. Totally unacceptable whichever way you look at it.

My interpretation of events is as follows:

• husband pissed off with guy parking van in front of house
• neighbour DGAF about husband, continues to park
• husband gives reasons for neighbour not to park but neighbour says I’ll park wherever I want what you gonna do
• husband runs out of arguments, sees neighbour lives alone and attacks him on a personal level. feels that his parking behaviour contributes to him being single
• suggests neighbour can ride his wife to cheer him up as this will somehow lead to better parking courtesy

Aren’t jokes supposed to be funny?

I think you should be more concerned about the fact that you’re married to a knob (in your own words) who speaks about you in a disgusting way than the fact that your DH has an ongoing petty dispute with a neighbour. Your other neighbours and kids could have heard him saying the neighbour could “have a go” on you.

Oh, the cool wife has arrived 🙄

if Not parked illegally you both need to get better at driving , also kick the knuckle dragging husband the kerb with the old man van!! Vile behaviour

I read it as the neighbour wouldn’t stand a chance with wifey and he was metaphorically shaking his big dick at him, or something like that.

If my partner shouted that about me in the street, he'd be waiting some time before he next 'had a go' himself.

What he said about you is absolutely rank. And the stupid shouting at a neighbour is so demoralising. He sounds like a total waste of space and waste of your energy.

Ignore.

When he mentions it just say « oh that’s a shame »

who cares? Let him have his drama.

It's escalated from being a parking issue to your DH being a disgusting prat. Sorry OP - it sounds like you're utterly exhausted by the situation (and the way your husband speaks, given you're resigned to it), but surely, SURELY, you've told him how bang out of order that was?? My husband's language can be pretty fruity at times, but he wouldn't come out with anything like that.
