Things your husband should know..

[ComeBackWillyWillpower]

After 4 years together he still only brings me a fork when he cooks (which is rare in itself)...surely by now he should know that I use a knife as well as a fork to eat?
Every single time I have to ask for a knife and every single time he huffs and puffs about it Tut.

The most frustrating thing is that DH does know stuff but keeps on doing it! We've been together over 16 years, married for over 15, but when we've had words he STILL says "Sorry I mentioned it" - it isn't that he mentions something, it's the way he says it! And he should know to apologise for what he's actually done, not deliberately miss the point & say sorry for something that I wasn't even picking him up on! Drives me crackers!

Married 21 years.. I Do not like the colour black Please dont buy me black things I dont like it.. (i get black things)

I think you are ALL married to my DH.

Apart from possibly at 6am on Saturday. And to be fair, he can make a decent gravy...

I seem to be sharing my DH with a few other MNetters ... what is it with the fork thing?! Or maybe it's because he knows I'm not safe around sharp objects when he leaves items ON TOP of a bin (eg laundry or kitchen) if it has a flat lid We have a dome-shaped kitchen bin for this reason.

When a bin is full, it requires emptying. Putting smaller bags of rubbish near the full bin is not emptying it (Ben Elton called these bags 'satellites'). This has been mostly eliminated by long-term shouting training

how to shut up, even if its just for 5 minutes. I've had a rough day, I just want to watch eastenders on iplayer and he keeps asking me questions and commenting on anything that happens, he doesn't even like eastenders, I'm pretty sure hes just doing it to wind me up now.

No gravy with roast dinner!!

Oh forgot another one...when I'm watching a programme with him I don't need a running translation of why something is funny (even PAUSING the bastard thing to explain) or for interesting side notes on plot (We are watching the same bloody thing you annoying git!)

Love him really

TV is another one - when DH is watching his programmes I pretty much keep quiet but when I watch mine, he will start discussing random stuff or sometimes just keeps grinning over at me. Like a big kid! Still, I have got him into Corrie & even Doctors (my guilty daytime tv pleasure). He will call me in saying " Mrs Tembe's on" lol

That I never have, and never would, wear trousers with the creases down the sides. Idiot.

DH opens fridge, stares blankly into it, 'where's the milk?' It's in exactly the same place as it's been for the past 10 years. We buy 3ltrs. Hard to miss!!

Mine put my chocolate in the fridge yesterday. I require chocolate earlier and discovered it was cold and hard.

Adorabell are we married to the same man?

rubbish is full
does he tie it up and take it out???
no hheaves and hos and pushes whatever it isin till the bin is so full youneed heavy equipment to get it out...aaarrrgghh
what with the knifeless thing.
how do they spread butter and such
or cut up meat???mine does knives but ALWAYS steak knives(serrated ones) for everything..

What time our DD has to be at school

Mine doesn't realise that if you've taken the bin liner out of the bin it needs replacing

When he 'whispers' and no sound comes out, I CAN'T FUCKING HEAR HIM.
Everything else on this thread sounds more like me than him...

That I hate lavender. Been together 15 yrs and married for 11 and he still buys lavender air freshener or washing up liquid. It makes me gip.

My dh offers me orange flavoured chocolate, Jaffa cakes or chocolate with peanuts. I like chocolate, I like peanuts, together they make me want to vomit same with oranges and chocolate. I tell him this EVERY BLOODY TIME FOR 25 YEARS and breathe!

So many of the above and more but the worst is the hurt look when you lose your rag because yet again they have forgotten something so that it becomes your fault and they are back on their self built pedestal.

Mine asks or checks with me if I have sugar in my tea whenever he makes me one which isn't often as he never makes it correctly to my very fussy specifications.

I have been with DH for 12 years and have never had sugar in my tea in my life.

That shoving everything in the nearest drawer is not tidying up.

How to make me a decent cup of coffee. It took years to train him how to make me one when I took milk.... now I realise I can't digest milk and it's been what? 3 years. Still can't get it right. Oh and of course, to actually ask me in the first place if I want a drink if he's making one himself.

We've been together for almost 25 years. 😱 That sounds frightening.

It's taken 25 years for DH to accept that I will notice if he puts chilli in my food and it will hurt my stomach. "I thought you'd be ok with a little bit" 😡.

I have now put a big sticker on the chilli pot which says Do Not Use In Riddo's Food! It's working so far ...

How to flush the loo.

OP, do you really need a knife for everything? Even things like pasta and shepherd's pie?
