He just went and got me a cup of tea and a hot cross bun. He only put butter one one side. One fucking side Angry. What sort of deviant eats hot cross buns either a) without butter, or b) like a sandwich. I'm ltb.

Bold fail 😑

I don’t like hot cross buns

zukiecat · 05/02/2018 23:02

I eat them without butter because butter is disgusting horrible stuff

I don't do dairy,

SheGotBetteDavisEyes · 05/02/2018 23:12

Have you tried Tesco chocolate chip & salted caramel Hot cross buns. They're amazing

Don't discover these. If you don't know about them, consider yourself lucky. Don't try them.

I wish I could turn the clock back and un-know how bloody nice these things are.

suzy2b · 05/02/2018 23:41

Always eat mine like a sandwich unless toasted

Teutonic · 05/02/2018 23:47

Butter on just one side of a hot cross bun? 😱 he needs locking away!

Or smacking round the head with a cricket bat.
Repeatedly.
Till he gets the message.

Chuffing men these days!

PenguinsandPandas · 05/02/2018 23:55

I suspect he's having an affair but he doesn't want to look like the bad guy breaking up his family so he's doing lots of little things to annoy you hoping you will leave. Bet he's putting butter on both sides of his mistresses hot cross buns.

SavageBeauty73 · 05/02/2018 23:56

Bury him under the patio. I'll help.

Guiltypleasures001 · 06/02/2018 00:03

Oh hell op

This is worse than my dh bringing me apple pie with no custard

Yanbu and it has to be Lurpak

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 06/02/2018 00:35

I do love a nice HCB. But yes, has to be buttered properly. I will eat mine toasted or untoasted but never unbuttered!

My D H nearly caused conniptions the day he tried to feed no.2 son unbuttered toast. He'd put the jam on but for some reason had failed to understand that the BUTTER GOES FIRST. He didn't think it needed it?!

He knows now.

GooodMythicalMorning · 06/02/2018 17:33

Were they at least toasted?!

Sallystyle · 06/02/2018 17:34

Butter is only allowed on toasted Hot X Buns.

They must always be toasted.

shoesarefab · 06/02/2018 17:35

I’m sending the husband out for hot cross buns as I type 😍

DagenhamRoundhouse · 06/02/2018 17:38

Appointment with Fiona Shackleton, pronto!

longtompot · 06/02/2018 17:40

Heathens toasting them imo. Don't the raisins/currants/sultanas burn?

I love mine just sliced in half and then lovingly (ie lots) spread with salted butter, Lurpak if we have it in. Delish Grin Deffo NOT eaten with one side buttered as a sandwich. He should sit in a corner and have a really good think OP.

ZaZathecat · 06/02/2018 17:41

What are you getting out of this relationship?

TheVanguardSix · 06/02/2018 17:42

Hand holding here, OP. I'd shove it down his pants, right up into his bum crack while he's sleeping.

daisychain01 · 06/02/2018 17:44

Can't be doing with all this stealth boasting, because he's cooked you a bun.

Performance Partnering at its best.

Chocolatestain · 06/02/2018 17:56

My (otherwise very sweet ) step MIL once served DH and me HCBs straight from the fridge - so not even room temp, let alone anywhere remotely close to hot - with marge. It was not a happy moment.

But we have managed to get past it and move on. There is hope your relationship after serious HCB transgressions OP if you are willing to work on it.

CoolCarrie · 06/02/2018 18:08

But the hot comes from the spices in the bun, not from heating them.

Nunyabusiness · 06/02/2018 18:10

LTB!!!

Teacher22 · 06/02/2018 18:12

Why did you marry this man? Surely there must have been signs?

Katedotness1963 · 06/02/2018 18:14

While I sympathise with your half buttered hot cross bun, (who does that?!) I find your hot cross bun complaint to be cruel to those of us who live outside the country and will get no buns, buttered, half buttered, unbuttered, or any other way....sob

LTB!

alotalotalot · 06/02/2018 18:25

Is he hunky? I'll adopt him if he is, as I don't like butter on my hot cross buns.

Tini17 · 06/02/2018 18:28

LTB.
(Has he at least apologised? Bought flowers? Chocolates? 🤔)
