To think my mother should but the hell out of MY MARRIAGE

[Spanielpuppy]

Sorry v long

My husband, ds (14months) and dog have temp moved in with my mum and her partner. Whilst we have major building work done on our house.

We were all sitting down earlier on the sofa watching the box. When I got up to sort the pooch out dh asked for a drink (which i didn't hear) so I when I sat back down without said drink he questioned it. I apologised and said get your own drink. To which he joking replied that's what I've got you for. After bout 40mins of watching the crap that is the TV ( and dh annoyingly smacking chewing gum a habit he developed after he quit smoking so although v irritating I let slide). I got up to get us both a drink. Mum was in the kitchen and was completely horrified I was getting dh a drink! Moaned about the gum smacking noise, huffed and puffed around the kitchen. Before proclaiming that she was going upstairs. She would normally say goodnight to both of us. And give some kind of instruction don't forget to lock door etc. her partner also just disappeared without a word.

I then receive a text saying nite, how old is she 6?

I'm now sat in bed, feeling like I've been sent to my room. (Dh completely unaware)

Should she but out?? Why can't I get him a drink? He didn't bark the order at me? Aibu??

I'm so ð??¡ð??¡ð??¡ð??¡ then I'm ð??¡ð??¡ð??¡ for feeling ð??¡ð??¡.

Please help

He is clearly getting on her nerves. Her house, she is entitled to be a bit huffy if she wants to be.

Do you know, even if someone had raging BO, spouted inane drivel and picked their toenails, I'm sure I could manage to bite my tongue for TWO WEEKS.

It's not like OP and DH have estbalished squatters' rights and are planning to be there for years.

Agree you're going to have to give your parents more space and not sit watching tv with them all night.

This would drive me MAD. My dear MIL comes to stay with us and sits in front of the tv all night picking her feet. {BOAK}

It amazes me how guests think it's ok to behave as though they were at home in EVERY aspect.

So I had a word with dh about the gum. He replied with is there anything I do do that she approves of.

Been treading on egg shells all day.

Your prob right he isn't helping that much but when he does. He is asking where things are or she picks on how he is doing it. So no win there.

I would feel rude if we just had dinner then went upstairs. But maybe worth a try.

Thanks ladies

I wouldn't like it if my daughters husband asked for a drink, the questioned where the drink was then sat for 40 minutes until she got up and made one. He couldn't have been that thirsty.

Sun me neither. Nor would my Mum. My DH would never ask me for a drink as though he were a child!
