To f**ing HATE this

[soyvanillalatte]

Probably irrational but I want to scream.
My Husband has acquired the habit of holding his cheek towards me, insipidly, as though to demand a "peck on the cheek" when he goes out .
I just want to tell him to frig off. If he wants a bloody kiss, he can make some goddam effort.

I CANNOT believe how much this pisses me off.

I'd just say "What's wrong with you exercising your mouth and kissing me?"
That's of course if you want him to.

I don't understand why this would bug you.

But if it does, have you tried turning round, bending over, pointing at your rear and responding in kind?

Another vote for licking him here.

Why can't you just have a conversation about it?

It sounds like a really bizarre thing to have got to the stage where you're so fucked off.

Why can't you just have a conversation about it?

This.

Urgh, I'd hate that too, but my husband wouldn't do it again if I told him to stop, what does your husband say when you tell him you don't like it?

You've asked him to stop and he's still doing it? Yuk, second blow a raspberry on his cheek.

Would annoy me too.

I'd ignore and force him to use his words.

"entitled" I think we've reached a MN peak

I should LTB?

Leave him? Have you tried talking to him?

Reiterating lick it.

I'm too Irish to put up with that shit.My measured response if DH dared to do this would be 'WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?'So yes it would really annoy me. It's never happened in 46 years though.

Lick his cheek instead, I guarantee you he will NEVER off you his cheek again.

I don't see why people would be so annoyed by their partner liking being kissed on the cheek. But whatever, OP seems to just want an excuse to leave him.

Looking at active, MN seems to be an exceptionally grumpy place today.

Just tell him you don't like it. Problem solved.

Wouldn't bother me personally, try flicking him in the cheek if it annoys you though, or just ignore him

I wouldn't mind that. My OH likes to poke his penis in my direction then get offended when I tell him to fuck off. A cheek would be lovely.

No, I don't think this is something that is going to get a unified response. It wouldn't bother me. I wouldn't associate something my OH does with royalty-ness and, as I'm generally quite fond of him I'd just kiss him and think nothing of it.

I think it's the fact that you've told him you don't like it and yet he still does it that's the problem rather than the cheek itself - some people wouldn't mind or would even find it endearing but you don't like it and that's fine (it would piss me off too!)

I would just remind him every time - just don't give in and kiss him or he'll keep doing it!
