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.

call 911

Right, so he's basically checked out of the relationship. Have you thought of leaving the key in the lock so he can't get back in tonight?

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 06/02/2018 21:06

He most likely has an emotional affair with someone who likes her HCB buttered on one side.

Sorry OP.

Chattymummyhere · 06/02/2018 21:10

Does he eat butter? I don’t and so always only butter one slice of bread when I make sandwiches for people apparently this is not the done thing Shock I also don’t drink hot drinks so I shall presume they are rubbish when I do. Might be why my dh brought a coffee machine Grin

Basseting, that poem was perfection.

StripySocksAndDocs · 06/02/2018 21:20

Myviragoneedsaride · 06/02/2018 21:28

AIBU to leave a job/people I love for a 10k pay rise? Both jobs are virtually the same, different organisation.

MulhuddartDrive · 06/02/2018 21:36

Virago, make your decision based on the hot cross bun policies. Should be in the staff manual.

MissMudskipper · 06/02/2018 21:55

I feel like a savage for only buttering one side Blush But how do you even butter the other side it’s all nobbly?!

MulhuddartDrive · 06/02/2018 22:00

I don't know how to draw disappointment, Silicon

Marks was doing all cross buns for £1 last week...their little tiny ones were soooo good, butter free as butter ruins them!!!!

WoollyMollyMonkey · 06/02/2018 22:04

I ate my last mince pie yesterday (just thought you would like to know) Grin

Agerbilatemycardigan · 06/02/2018 22:05

So sorry that you've had to go through this OP, but it's good that you found out now.

For you Flowers And may your buns always be buttered on both sides in future.

Abbylee · 06/02/2018 22:16

My dh only butters the center of toast. Not to the edges. However, both pieces.....

RickOShay · 06/02/2018 22:18

Hope you’ve been extra kind to yourself today op, you might want to think about counselling.
Fwiw I toast, then butter my hcb, and then when the first layer of butter has melted I spread another layer.
Also works with toast.

snowone · 06/02/2018 22:20

YABVU......hot cross buns are the devils work!! All those manky dead flies. If I were your husband I would've put the hot cross bun in the bin!! Grin

AlbaChick · 06/02/2018 22:25

Get your ducks in a row and look for evidence that he’s not having an emotional affair with Senegal from the bakery. He’s obviously confusing how she likes her buns buttered with you! Look at his laptop and check his phone. Look at the history. If it shows hot cross bun sites then there’s your answer. Confront him and the look on his face will tell you all you need to know. Have his bags packed by the door. Make sure joint accounts are in your name and change the locks. See a solicitor at once. How a man can wreck your life, after everything you’ve done for him, because he couldn’t be arsed to bitter the other side beggars belief. You’re well rid of him OP. If you let this carry on, next thing it’ll be margarine !!!

ItsNachoCheese · 06/02/2018 22:31

Waitrose did amazing chocolate orange hot cross buns last year they were amazing. I may need to see if they have them again this year

StripySocksAndDocs · 06/02/2018 22:32

What MissMudskipper? Why is the other side knobbly?

Both sides (that require buttering) are the same terrain.

What other side are you now buttering?

PenguinsandPandas · 07/02/2018 02:18

I'm having similar issues, asked DH to make me a chicken sandwich with plenty of butter, a simple instruction I thought.

But no he only butters the one side then worse than that he adds healthy green bits to the sandwich putting in spring onions and lettuce. I'm certain he's having an affair, he knows me well enough to know I don't want healthy bits in my sandwich and both sides need butter. I reckon it could be with the same woman your DH is seeing - the type of woman that only has one side buttered and steals husbands.
