To divorce DH immediately for this

DH is a Kiwi. I am Irish. Rugby is a religion in this house. We usually have a very simple system - when the All Blacks play we both support the ABs, when Ireland play, we both support Ireland. When they play each other, all bets are off.

Ireland came very close to beating the ABs in 2013. The ABs only went ahead in the final minute. I may have not spoken to DH for an hour afterwards because it was clearly all his fault

I am making DD2's halloween costume in the sitting room - and DH is rewatching that game on YouTube. The whole bloody game. And repeatedly saying things like "how did you lose this one?" "So far ahead with only 20 minutes to go..."

WIBU to divorce him immediately? Or at the very least make him teach the DC the words to Ireland's Call as penance??

Rundown if this gets to you then you really need to consider staying off the internet

Sorry just super sensitive at the moment as I'm going through a heart breaking divorce. Your right I probably should stay off internet but it's my only support reading the divorce threads and seeing how others have come out the other side. Sorry for being so flippant . BlushFlowers

rundown big hug to you, I am going through a real divorce and it is horrible and acrimonious and I thought when i left ex h the emotional abuse would stop but it doesn't work like that.

However, I was actually enjoying this light hearted thread and can see nothing offensive about it!

op I'm voting for your kids buying him the Ireland kit for Christmas and being coached to look sad and heart broken till he agrees to head out of the house wearing it Grin

Dress your kids up as leprechauns for Halloween?

Oooof I remember that match! Painful is not the word.

Put him on the next convict ship heading down-under.

Put on the clips of the Munster/All Blacks match and remind him we were teaching them how to play years ago !! :)
