I live in a rural area and take ds to piano lesson in the back of beyond on the moor! Very narrow lanes.
Today I had to drive dh's car as mine is getting a fault fixed. I hate driving dh's car it has shit visibility. Anyway turning left out of VERY narrow lane there was a horse ( moorland pony) on the corner so I was driving slowly to avoid spooking pony. Turned left and didn't see a bloody rock til I hit it. Scraped all the sill on dh's carSad
Got home told Dh what I'd done and apologised profusely. Explained about trying to not to spook horse etc. The sensors didnt go off either probably rock was too low.

Anyway Dh was understandably annoyed. I said I would organise repair if he wanted.
Anyway after a frosty 30 mins he was ok but now for the past 2 hours he's been really sulky and barely replying. I asked him what was wrong but just got 'nothing'.
I get that he's annoyed. It was an accident I have apologised and said I'll sort the repair but he's just really moody with me.
We can afford to repair it without going through insurance.

Aibu to think he's being childish now by sulking?

Pan, no-one is saying you can't be annoyed about it initially, thats natural. I could have killed DH when the first time i let him drive my car we'd just spent 6k on and he managed to scrape the wheel trims.

The issue here is the SULKING.

Its not cool to sulk, suck it up and get over it. Shit happens. Most scratches can be repaired.

Glad he has got over it, shame he is embarrased at such sill things though, as if the garage cares.

Why was he embarrassed at the dealership? What a nonsense thing to have wounded pride over.
