I told DP what we had to make tea - pasta with philadephia, bacon, peas etc - a weekend staple in our house. He said he would do it which is nice as I cook all week.
He went off to the kitchen then came through waving a jar of tomato chilli sauce he'd found in the cupboard and telling DS we could have that with pasta for tea, and got DS all excited (he loves spicy food).
I had bought this to make a curry, but would have been the killjoy to then tell DS he couldn't have it, so I said nothing, even though DP should know I wouldn't like it much (I would use it in the curry but with a lot of other stuff so it would be milder).
We then eat it and DP is going on about how great it is and wanting me to agree so I said no, I'm not enjoying it much it's too hot for me really. He insisted it was great and if I don't like it why did I buy it? So I explained about the curry. He then said "Mmmmm it's great" again.
. I said will you stop saying it's great as if it's a fact, I don't like it. He says "Well at least I really love it, so that should make you feel better!"
(Things are getting a bit heated now) I objected to being told that if he likes it, then that should make everything fine and dandy and cheer me up. he now says "Well I came through and asked you if it was ok and you said it was!" NO I FECKING DIDN'T.
He always bloody does this - totally rewrites what happened and tells a new version of it that makes him look good. When I got mad and went through what HAD happened, he swore blind that was how he'd remembered it, and also that if he were in my shoes, it would cheer him up to think well at least someone had enjoyed it. He seemed genuine with this and I can sort of see his point but I'm still fuming.
He is generally nice, kind and sweet and not at all abusive or controlling btw. But he is just bloody selfish and also does this thing where he just convinces himself he's said something other than what he has. He just walks all over what I want, not to be malicious but because he gets carried away with what he wants. Bah.
OK I've typed it all out now and I think I might be BU and also it is mindblowingly trivial but grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
