To Expected DH To Leave My Coke Alone?

Coca-Cola. Not any other kind of Coke.

I have had a really crap day. Got to work to find out that my friend and colleague was rushed to hospital with a suspected heart attack over the weekend. On top of the worry about my friend, I have had to pick up her work, plus the work of another colleague who is in leave (and unwell colleague is supposed to be covering for). They are both higher grades than me and are full time, I only work 15 hours per week. In addition, due to a balls-up last week, there's a manic push to sort out something in time for next week, the team leader is also on leave so all in all a pretty stressful time.

I then picked up DS from nursery to be faced with the third report in 2 weeks of him biting another child. Yet another humiliating conversation about what to do about it.

I have PND and haven't had my ADs since Friday, since DH picked up my prescription and has lost them in the depths of his car. DS hasn't slept for the last three nights. Was up from 12.30-2am with him last night, up at 6am for work this morning. DS still not asleep now, I can hear him grizzling and will probably have to go back in to him soon.

So after all that, on the way home I scraped together a few coins and bought myself a bottle of coke as a treat. Drank some of it and was saving the rest for this evening.

DH has guzzled it and claims it's fine because "he had less than half the bottle".

AIBU to twat him?

You've got a lot going on, and a bottle of coke to yourself (and a bloody big load of chocolate) sounds like a very small reward for getting through it all.

How is your son? I'm feeling your pain on the wake-ups - 4:30-6am for me last night.

luv usually around 6. I still bf DS at bedtime so have to be involved with that. DH definitely doesn't pull his weight around the house but there's not much I can do about it TBH as I can't stand mess whereas he is happy to live with it.

DS is tired, sleep has always been an issue but things are slowly improving.

I'm not surprised you feel like shite if you've not had your Ads over the weekend, I've got a cracking headache from just forgetting to take mine this morning! He's being an arse about a lot of things and the finishing your coke just sums it up really - he could have left a bit for you and still had some himself.

On the very narrow issue of the Coke. If he drank less than half of a 1.75 litre bottle then I think that's fine. Those big bottles are for sharing and almost a litre of Coke to yourself is too much.

On the rest of it he is being unreasonable. Also I think your work need to bring in some temps or something to help you out while you are so understaffed.

If my husband bought a 2 litre bottle of something it would never occur to me that he intended to pig it all himself!

If you hadnt told him the coke was all yours its not UR for him to have some even finish it if he was going to replace it the next day but since you told him it was your treat then he is very unreasonable to even have any without checking let alone finishing it off
