Secret Confessions? (lighthearted)

I have a secret confession... I have put my husband on a diet. He's overweight and I'm not. I told him I want to lose weight and I'll be following a calorie deficit plan, and he said he'd join me (I knew he would). But I'm not sticking to at it all. I do feel bad for tricking him but it needs to happen. And technically he volunteered!!

What's your secret confession? (Make me feel better!)

When my vegetarian husband annoys me, I cook with chicken stock, not vegetable. Take that you smarmy bastard

@Harshrealitythat’s really horrible. My partner’s vegetarian and I could never do that to him. Just cruel really and not very lighthearted.

That's a horrible thing to do. Why feed him something you know he's morally against consuming?

How would you feel if he replaced your chicken with horse or dog?

That’s a bit pathetic.

I'd eat it. I've eaten horse. I'd relish the chance to try dog

I told work I'd need three months of dedicated time to complete a project. They took lots of responsibility off me, they cleared my diary, they helped me ruthlessly protect my three months.

Recognising the difficulty of the project, upon completion I got a salary bump and was nominated for an award.

The project took me a single afternoon feeding of feeding a few well-buried policy and economic documents through ChatGPT.

My DH won't eat lamb, not for any ethical reasons, just decided he doesn't like it.

Our local butcher does delicious lamb burgers, so when he asks what's for dinner I mumble it a bit, he hears hamburgers and enjoys them every single time.

Bloody hell, @Harshreality if I was your husband I'd leave you for that. Would you feed bacon to a Muslim?

What a spiteful, nasty thing to do.

Lol at the hate for harsh reality 😂

I've invented a bad back so I don't have to sleep at anyone's house except my own
