Dh has just flounced off because I've said no to putting down a £3k bet that Clinton will win. The chances are she will but I still feel nervy about putting that much money down.

Aibu? He thinks I'm making us miss out on a huge opportunity...

REALLY hope he didn't put that bet on anyway

Cuppaqueen · 09/11/2016 06:09

OP I hope your DH comes crawling to you with gratitude, breakfast in bed and a big slice of humble pie this morning!!!

Mummyoflittledragon · 09/11/2016 06:21

I wonder if there is a recipe for humble pie .

GizmoFrisby · 09/11/2016 06:22

Really hope you didn't bet. Gosh I'd be crying now.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 09/11/2016 06:23

That would be insult to injury. Tell your dh "I told you so"

Kannet · 09/11/2016 06:31

Well done for standing your ground

Humbles are offal, aren't they?

Hope he didn't bet behind your back!

blueistheonlycolourwefeel · 09/11/2016 07:16

Be interested to know if he did it?!!!

Penhacked · 09/11/2016 07:17

I would be very tempted to say 'Clinton' forever more if DH had suggested I was wrong and he was right in this situation!!

KirstyinNorway · 09/11/2016 07:20

OP! Did you bet?! I really hope not, for your sake! (Either way, DH owes you dinner out Wink)

PlumsGalore · 09/11/2016 07:21

Actually came back to this thread to see what your Husband was saying this morning, do enlighten us 😃

SemiNormal · 09/11/2016 07:45

Joining thread because I'm nosy and need to know what your DH has said and it better be 'Thank you so much for talking me around oh wise one, let me take you out to dinner to apologise for being such an arse'

Softkitty2 · 09/11/2016 07:48

Arent u glad u stuck to your guns. Hope u didnt place the bet.

eatingtomuch · 09/11/2016 07:58

I hope he didn't put the bet on and has apologised for sulking this morning.

Pickled0nions · 09/11/2016 08:23

Well looks like it's a good job he didn't put that bet on!!

KayTee87 · 09/11/2016 08:33
