AIBU to be annoyed at OH?

44 replies

MummySparkle · 20/03/2015 20:25

I had to come home from work early today as I've caught a tummy bug from the DCs (great). Drove myself home, slept for an hour, threw up the contents of my stomach & slept for a few hours until MIL brought the DCs home.

I still feel weak and sicky, although the I have been sitting on the sofa this afternoon with the DCs and I managed to drink a cup of tea.

AIBU to be annoyed that OH won't do bedtime as he wants to play playstation with his friend?

Definitely not. Is your OH a child?!

tobytoes · 20/03/2015 20:27

I would be absolutely furious if my husband said that to me. That's just awful. Absolutely NBU atall. Hope you feel better soon Flowers

MythicalKings · 20/03/2015 20:28

Annoyed wouldn't come close. I'd be enraged. Tell him to man up, grow up and stop being a prick.

A grown man should not be playing with his toys when his wife is ill.

Musicaltheatremum · 20/03/2015 20:28

YANBU but it looks as though you have an extra child in the house.

AgentZigzag · 20/03/2015 20:29

Have you tried vomiting on his playstation?

YABU if you haven't.

squaretoes · 20/03/2015 20:29

This might actually be one of those super rare things, a unanimous AIBU!!

YANBU - your OH is a prick. I would seriously be considering what you get out of this relationship if that is his idea of acceptable treatment.

Feel better Thanks

How old is he? Clearly too young and immature to be wanting to have sex with when you've recovered.

AgentZigzag · 20/03/2015 20:30

Hope you're feeling better soon Flowers

JeanSeberg · 20/03/2015 20:31

This can't be the first time this has happened? Ie he's acted like a dick?

mineofuselessinformation · 20/03/2015 20:31

Try to find some energy...
Use it to chuck his precious playstation out of the window.
YAtotallyNBU.

Eebahgum · 20/03/2015 20:32

YA so not BU!

MrsTerryPratchett · 20/03/2015 20:43

Lick his toothbrush. Then book yourself somewhere for about a week. In about two days. Without the DC.

I'm glad it's not me!

I couldn't get the DCs to sleep, so left them safely upstairs whilst I went out to have a smoke calm down. I'm furious with him.

OH is now sitting with DS (2) and I'm trying to settle 9mo DD. He is apparently 'reall pissed off' with me and we're going to 'have a talk about this' once the DCs are asleep

Prick!

Don't do it.

Let the DCs ruin his 'I'm a big kid in a mans body' time.

expatinscotland · 20/03/2015 20:48

I would be fucking seething. What a prick. Oh, you'd be having a talk alright.

FirstWeTakeManhattan · 20/03/2015 20:50

He's pathetic, sorry. I would go fucking spare.

YA very obviously NBU.

ohdearitshappeningtome · 20/03/2015 20:51

Let him talk... Then spew all over
Him!

Creatureofthenight · 20/03/2015 20:55

Have just asked DH for the male perspective. DH and I both say YANBU. DH says your OH is being a knobhead.

Charley50 · 20/03/2015 20:56

He's pissed off???!!!!

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 20/03/2015 20:59

what a knob he is

Rosieliveson · 20/03/2015 21:00

YANBU! He's being an unreasonable jerk. I second the plan to lick anything he's likely to put in his mouth and be extremely unhelpful when he gets sick!

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 20/03/2015 21:05
smilingthroughgrittedteeth · 20/03/2015 21:11

YANBU just read your post to DP who says your OH is a wanker and needs to grow up.

I say he's a twat and I'd be smashing the playstation over his head Angry

Hope you feel better soon Flowers

Hobby2014 · 20/03/2015 21:16

YABU.. he's probably had a really busy week and just wants to wind down...
.

Grin I joke obvs YANBU. What a great partnership. id be telling him to get the fuck up or he can get the fuck out!

cerealqueen · 20/03/2015 21:16

Lazy git.

Is the friend with you now?

Have you discussed it and therefore 'threatened his manhood' by asking him to look after his own children in front of his friend when he should do what the fuck he likes and you should know your place?
