To the person you are quarantined with what would you really like to say!?

[Rainb0w]

Dear husband,

You don't want to go to the supermarket yet you moan about what food I've got planned for today... Please either shut the f up or don't eat it and I'll save it for tomorrow for me.

What would you really like to say to the people your quarantined with but won't to keep peace?

It’s my birthday on Wednesday. John Lewis are still delivering. Make it good.

@pheonixrebirth
It's driving me crackers. There's about 8 to 10 every day, dotted around everywhere. Some in piles of 3.
All soggy.
I've not said anything as I choose to pick my battles.....but for heavens sake why?

DH you’re not on holiday, stop drinking so much.

DH I know you are really worried about your employees and being furloughed, having enough to pay the bills and staff.

DH this week you have really stepped up in the house, Especially doing the food shopping which is normally my job, but I don’t get praises every time I shop or do the dishwasher.

DS (15) do your bloody work without me nagging, I know you have an unconditional offer for 6th firm, but it still matters.

DD2 (9) stop whining about your bloody school work. I am trying to do a stressful job and teach you. You are bloody lazy,

DD1 (13) you’ve been so mature about your spoilt birthday. I am so glad we shopped early and I spoilt you rotten. I’m so proud of how hard you are working. (I have told her)

@sugarcherry we were reduced to using clean dishcloths the other day as every tea towel was in the wash!

DP I know you are tired and still working but you are always tired, you always ache. I have told you repeatly for five years to go to the doctor. When you criticise me every evening about what I have/haven't done it is not constructive. It is just critisism. Nothing I do is ever good enough for you even though I do all your business admin for free and you give me stick about my job. You make no effort to talk to me, see how I am when I'm stuck at home all day with our baby. This is not how I planned my maternity leave. I'm lonely and you're making it worse. You want to know why I don't want to be intimate with you, well DP right now you're a stranger.

@PeanutbutterJamSandwich He hates any form of compliment and gets really embarrassed about them.

To DH:

Why has this situation turned you into a raging sex maniac. No, I’m in the mood for a quickie four times per day. Please go back to being a once a week man.

DH.. I know your job is manic at the moment, you're out 11hrs a day, you aren't having a weekend etc... But can you please tidy up after yourself? By that I mean putting your dirty clothes in the basket, your cups/plates in the kitchen and your rubbish in the bin?

You don't want to take yourself to the shop but it's perfectly okay for me to go to the shops.
Start doing more with your DS and stop being a lazy shit in front of the TV all day eating everything in sight.

DP I am not breaking the rules. I am doing essential shopping and caring for my father who is about to turn 79. It is safe for you to take DS out for a walk, just stay away from people.

Please get out of the house!

= Stop telling me I'm over reacting, the world has stopped, everything has shut down, people are dying, just because you're not scared doesn't mean I'm not. = If when you get it, that will mean we get it. You can reduce these chances, by doing the things that I keep asking you to do, which you say are over reacting.

Not someone I am locked up with, but to my Ex-H, our kids are devastated, especially DD. Show some fucking compassion, and when you do decide that you will talk to them, dont keep harping on about how lucky they are not to have any school, they want to go to school. They are sad.

I would say that to him but it will get turned around on me.

.

It is OK if I cry because I haven't heard from my daughter in Canada for 3 days, after her being so good about checking in daily, I'm really not making a fuss about nothing. Made all the worse by you having a fucking tantrum because you can hear someone out on a motorcycle and it's not you.

To my dh... sit the fuck down, stop trying to micro manage everything me and the dc do because you're bored

This!!! He is doing shedloads around the house while also wfh'ing. But please.... This is home not office!

I don't really care which desk you choose, I won't be sat at it. So I really don't care. Please stop talking about it. Don't you realise how lucky you are to get the allowance from work to buy it. Just bloody order it.

Please stop shouting at DD every time she isn't perfectly obedient. It scares her and it doesn't help. She is 3, you are a grown man.

Please clean up after yourself. Put the bread away and the lid back on the coffee pot, the jam back in the fridge and for the love of god, flush the toilet. You are 50 years old ffs!!!

And stop putting your responsibilities onto the 12 year old.

Also, when you lecture us watch the body language of your audience and learn when to stop talking.

I'm fed up of being treated like the hired help around here and oh how I wish I could leave you.

Also stop being a jolly bastard for work then walking around the house with a scowl for the rest of us.

To my wonderful children, this is so hard but you are coping brilliantly

@itwasgoodwhileitlasted
Oh sooooo true here too

Nothing that I don't say to them at any other time, or wouldn't say to them irl.

2they are just as annoying now as they were before cv19.

Go home... maybe this temporary move in/stay here for the lockdown wasn't a good idea

This is the ideal time to get the house cleaned and sorted so stop faffing around on your phone and watching rubbish on TV and just get on with it!

(I should point out I live alone)
