To leave DH over ruined underwear?

Ok, sounds dramatic, right?
But... We have been together years, known each other forever. Today, yet again, he washed my hand wash only underwear in the machine and ruined it. I have lost count of the number of times he has done this.
It is just such a waste and will need replacing. We must have had this scenario every year for the past ten.
It's like that thing on the internet about the man whose wife left him over a cup left on the side, its the constant drip drip drip effect and never learning.
I can't stand his incompetence anymore. How hard is it to check a label? And not mess with the stuff in the separate handwash only basket?!
I am so angry.

I'm getting confused now, I don't know who's who or who's on the side of OP? But surely it's simple? Some posters understand, some don't. If this is a continual problem for op with many different issues like Our Billy then firstly she needs to decide whether it's just forgetfulness or wilful (maybe Relate could help) Secondly she then needs to decide whether to put up with it or split.

And posters being nasty to each other doesn't help, obvi.

Um....maybe she should buy undies that are machine washable then. If it has happened lots of times then clearly you wear a lot of underwear that is not machine washable. Maybe you should stop buying all that pretentious crap underwear. I would never buy any underwear that wasn't machine washable. Seems you need to come back down to earth more and NORMAL underwear. Your husband does washing for you. FFS be GRATEFUL and buy normal underwear like normal people that can be machine washed.

Gee, maybe you should read the thread. Then you'd see that every single point you made has been both discussed and responded to.

Maybe she should also buy plastic cups and plates just in case her husband breaks them. Or decides to put them in the washing machine instead of the dishwasher. Because it's all so hard.
