Background information: i had a baby on 8 Jan. Also my husband normally makes this for me. And we had more cheese (350g dh wants me to point out)

i made myself some cheese and crackers. Nothing special, just crackers with cathedral cheese. I deliberately uses the last of the cheese from one pack so i didn't need to open the other one. I get antsy if i think were running out of cheese.

anyway, dh stole my last cracker with cheese on it. And laughed. So i cried. And he laughed more. He thinks I'm being unreasonable. I think he's being an utter fuckwit.

jury to decide. Obviously i know this is a first world problem, etc etc

17 years ago H stole the last bit of my strawberry icecream. I cried.

And I have never forgotten nor forgiven him.

Bastard.

8 DAYS ago you had a baby.

His baby?

And he STOLE YOUR FOOD?

Fucker.

At least i acknowledge I'm being unreasonable. Or would be even more unreasonable if i hadn't just had ds2.

he hasn't made me more cheese and crackers. Bastard

I didn't talk to dp for the rest of the day when he put grey socks out instead of black ones for ds1 for school. Ds2 was 3 days old.

Twat.

But a funny twat.

Graciekaye · 16/01/2014 21:48

Yes your unreasonable, try to act older than your children, always a good start

BigFatGoalie · 16/01/2014 21:49

Just to be certain...
Did it have that delicious M&S caramelised onion chutney on it?

8 days after having his child - you can do what you like and he is always in the wrong.

Small voice if reason - did you also have more crackers? In which case he makes you more....

Inertia · 16/01/2014 21:55

YANBU. I hate it when people steal food from your plate- and I'm a willing food sharer in general. I always save the best roastie for last- DH once stole it off my plate "because I didn't think you were going to eat it".

He has never stolen one from me since that day.

And if anyone had taken food from me in the days when I had a newborn and no sleep, when the only cups of tea I ever had were lukewarm and all my meals eaten with one hand while I juggled a feeding baby in the other, I would have been really angry.

ExcuseTypos · 16/01/2014 21:56

Oh BigFat I LOVE M&S caramelised onion chutney! It's bloody fab.

ExcuseTypos · 16/01/2014 21:57

In fact OP, make your thieving DH go to M&S and buy you lots of cheese and their onion chutney. You'll love him forever for it.

fryingpantoface · 16/01/2014 21:58

We do have more crackers, but we're now watching Brooklyn Nine Nine and he's chuckling away like a loon.

I've now moved onto the gummi bears.

This made me laugh: He has never stolen one from me since that day

Damn right!

StupidMistakes · 16/01/2014 22:02

I would suggest he buys you a nice box of chocolates, and brings you breakfast in bed tomorrow.

And don't forget the massage. your DH should be adoring you, waiting on you hand and foot and not let you lift a finger to do washing or ironing, he should be up all night doing it for you Grin

EATmum · 16/01/2014 22:52

8 days' postnatal? Well he's brave I'll say that!

wyldchyld · 16/01/2014 23:27

I've not had DC yet but have joint problems which, until recently, they were trialling me on lots of pain relief. One of which made me exceptionally emotional. I made cheese covered spinach and ricotta tortellini for dinner and, because he was starving and I was eating slowly after he'd finished, he stole half of my plateful off my plate. That started a forty five minute crying jag about how he didn't respect my rights to eat cheesey pasta at my own pace and that he didn't love me.

I suspect your situation is akin to that. LTB.

Even if he brings you a large box of Thorntons Chocs with a slightly nervous look on his face ;)

You should have said 'Frankly my dear, I don't give Edam...'

YABU for even thinking about Cathedral City when you can now eat BRIE and CAMEMBERT again..!
