Dh got home before me, rang to see what to do for tea. I said pizza, potato and salad. Got home, he's cooked pizza and omelette so I asked where are the potatoes and salad? He replied he hadn't done them as he thought pizza and omelette would be enough. He got the pizza out of the oven, I said they're not quite cooked through. He flipped at this point, shouting that whenever he cooks I criticize him! Is it just me that thinks this is completely ott?!

maybe a bit, though it does sound like you came home and decided everything he'd done was wrong.

PrivetDancer · 10/09/2010 20:24

I think you should leave the kitchen and let him get on with it.

I think he might have a point.

redskyatnight · 10/09/2010 20:26

do you always criticise his cooking? Sounds like you got home and moaned about everything he'd done. Maybe totally flipping out is over the top but perhaps your comments were the final straw?

You should have just done the salad yourself

DH does this kind of thing with me and it drives me demented.

Mowgli1970 · 10/09/2010 20:27

That was "tits" as an expletive, not an insult btw! Looks like I'm having humble pie as dessert.

YABU overall, though I would be internally Hmm at a pizza and omelette combo. I think it comes under the heading of 'don't sweat the small stuff' though.

perfumedlife · 10/09/2010 20:28

YABU, Pizza and potato is way too much starch in one meal Wink

skidoodly · 10/09/2010 20:28

He'll probably have made humble crumble instead Wink

Well, my DH would have no idea how to do an omelette so I'm quite impressed by that Grin

In fact DH has not cooked anything for a while.....

thisisyesterday · 10/09/2010 20:31

pizza and omelette is VERY weird tho... no?

safetynet · 10/09/2010 20:32

Agree it is a weird combo but at least he tried.

My DH is normally sitting on the sofa waiting for me to cook it Angry.

That was my point TIY! Also, why ring me to ask what to cook then ignore me and do something else? And I wasn't snotty about it, I was only asking!

Think of it as a cheese omelette with toast and tomato sauce. Just served differently.

It all goes to make a turd anyway.

scottishmummy · 10/09/2010 20:44

i was only asking.LOL guilty explanation of hectoring him?then argy bargy

ah wis only askin
ah wis only sayin

AlCrowley · 10/09/2010 20:49

Pizza and Omelette is a wierd combo but then is Pizza and Potatoes IMO.

Pizza and Salad - yes. No potatoes needed.

But YABU. I would kill for DH to cook. It's me or a takeout in this house, he hates cooking.

Pan · 10/09/2010 20:52

and I bet it wasn't your favourite pizza an aw. And I bet he didn't use the proper plates and cutlery. Bastard. Dump him.

scottishmummy · 10/09/2010 20:55

fear not someone will rock and say abuser/leave him/call womens aid. starts with pizza and omelette christ know where it ends

HecateQueenOfWitches · 10/09/2010 20:55

Grin poor bloke.

When someone has done something -even if they've missed something, the first thing you say should not be about what they didn't do!

No "oh good, pizza's ready" just where's the X, you didn't do Y, Z isn't right..."

tbh, if you'd done that to me, you'd be wearing the bloody pizza! Grin
