Here is the background. I am an overweight woman in my 50's. This week i have made a very determined start at losing weight. DH is well aware of this. I am also a bit hormonal at times and had already said to DH this morning that i was feeling strangely weepy.
DH has been to Switzerland on business and returned late last night while i was asleep. When he was at the airport asked him to get me some specific make up but he wasn't able to get it. He said there wasn't much else to buy at the airport other than chocolate, watches or penknives, so i said to buy DD some chocolate and not to worry about me.
This morning he was in the kitchen with DD and i saw he had given her a big bar of chocolate. I laughed and said "where is my chocolate watch with penknife attachment" (this was very obviously done in a joking manner). He leapt up with a gleeful smile and went into his rucksack and rummaged about and pulled out a package. I though, how nice, he has managed to find something to get me. He turned round the package and held it in front of me and it was a pack of Lindt mini chocolates. I looked crestfallen and said to him thanks but no thanks i didn't really want any chocolate as i was dieting. He laughed and said "oh, they are not for you, they're for me".
I have no idea why but this tipped me over the edge and i went up to my bedroom and burst into tears. I felt that was a horrible and insensitive thing to do and say. He doesn't really get why i am upset about this. He also is a bit cross that i won't go into town with him now. I look like a puffer fish.
I am not one for melodramatic weeping but this just made me feel like crap when i was already feeling a bit low and weepy.
Was IBU?
