He is driving me round the bend. He has re-scheduled the week, he takes phone calls from my friends, sometimes telling them I am out. He has changed all the times/days I had planned. The children will miss out on some activities because he rescheduled them and some clash.

He has commissioned the sink and the kitchen. Which would be fine, except he has flooded the kitchen.

He insists we all lay in, because he wants to! He sabotages the alarm clock. He then bosses everyone around and today we were all told to pick up everything so that he could dust and hoover. By lunch time I wanted to scream.

I seem to always end up arranging stuff for me & dd to do, then he does his own thing and I get pissed off at having no 'me time', especially in short hols.

Mind you am off next Friday on best mates hen weekend so can't really complain Grin

YA maybe B a bit U.

Despite the fact that I automatically don't like blokes who play computer games (sorry - realise this isn't rational but just think its wrong) I do have some sympathy for him.

He is clearly being an arse, but it sounds like he's also trying to help a bit. My wife says its a little strange when I'm on holiday because the routine, space, time etc that she's used to are all invaded. She used to get really defensive, then she explained how she was feeling, we had a chat and agreed that at the beginning of each day we'd decide on a rough plan of what we were going to do (this helped alot). Is this an option at all?

P.S. If he's deliberately telling your friends that you're out when you're in, the that is, a) v unreasonable, and b) really wierd.
