DH controlling my eating

This is the latest from my 'D'H.

We are having guests over for a week and i was busy all day yesterday cleaning, deep cleaning the fridge, the cooker, the worktops scrubbing the floor. I also had to keep an eye out for DS1 who is 21 months old. Whilst i was doing this, DH was sat on his ass playing mini golf on the computer.

At around 4yesterday i asked him to make me a well deserved cup of tea and asked for a few biscuits. He grabbed my thighs and started to mockingly examine them saying " do we have enough room in there for a few biscuits or would it be better to give u a ryvita." I couldnt believe what he said and went mad. Im a healthy size 10 and am not fat. I have self esteem and weight issues and hes knows that. He is adamant that it was a joke....

Why would any DEAR HUSBAND make such a stupid weight joke?

AIBU to leave him in the house with a list of tasks t o do and just go out?

I think that comment was horrible Sad

Next time he wants sex look at his winky with a Hmm face and say, sorry I don't think it's a good idea-the friction might cause some of it to rub away and you really can't afford to lose any length darling

Then of course when he gets affronted pull the omg you're soooo over sensitive it was just a joke

I'd be hurt too, but to be honest, it does sound like a joke.

joanna2012 · 07/04/2012 14:18

what a twat, making a joke, ffs what does he think marriage is? Fun?

leave the bastard!

ScrambledSmegs · 07/04/2012 14:22

Idiot.

It's not exactly a good joke if the only person laughing is the one who made it.

Bonsoir · 07/04/2012 14:25

Oh calm down. It was a harmless joke.

picnicbasketcase · 07/04/2012 14:26

It's not harmless if someone is upset by it, and the OP is. He sounds like a shit.

love the willy comment!!

DodieSmith · 07/04/2012 14:28

Does he try to control our eating in other ways? If this is a one off then it's a bad joke, but he's not controlling your eating.

JiltedJohnsJulie · 07/04/2012 14:28

So what you are saying is that he said that and has survived? Really?

Think I would have put him through the window at least.

Leave him DS and the list and bugger off out.

DodieSmith · 07/04/2012 14:36

Hmmm, personally I wouldn't leave a list, because my DH would deliberately not do it if he was in a mood for a row. And I wouldn't enjoy my time out as I'd be getting stressed about 'is he doing the things I asked him to?'

But I might go out.

aquashiv · 07/04/2012 14:59

Yes do that if it makes you feel better.
If this is a regular occurance you need to talk to him about his comments and how they make you feel.

What an absolute penis. Words fail me.
