My head’s all over the place. I’ll try to keep it brief.
We had a lovely day yesterday - lots of family time, big roast dinner. I made a delicious crumble. DH and I had a bowl each with some ice cream and there was a decent portion left. I covered it over and went to bed.
I’ve got loads of dull work to do from home today but cheered myself up with the thought of a mid morning coffee and the leftover crumble. Got myself a bowl, uncovered the crumble dish and my world fell apart. It was EMPTY. He’s eaten the leftover crumble AND covered it up again.
I just didn’t see this coming. He’s eaten the last Hobnob or something when we were younger but I thought he’d changed.
Has anyone been through similar and managed to make things work?

OP Do you have a patio? PM if you do and I can come around with a jack hammer and do a bit of prep. The cheese mate, the cheese!!! You should have known then.i think it's too late to redeem himself with dipping his baguette in some baked camembert.

Get out. Get out now.
Presumably you have a running away fund?

MissConductUS · 01/10/2018 15:50

Perhaps you could hire someone to arrange an "unfortunate accident" for him. You know, like the fridge explodes when he take out the crumble or something.

KathDayKnight50 · 02/10/2018 08:35

Any updates, OP?

Have you had a big showdown with DH or are you playing the long game?

Bastard blokemaras did something similar in 1975 Shock
I'm 65 now and still in therapy.
Oddly we're still married as I haven't yet worked out if it's more feasible to divorce or wait for Karma to kick his greedy arse. Smile

@jackio225 actually no! Aries ♈️

Creative, enterprising and short tempered 🤷‍♀️ 😂

blackteasplease · 02/10/2018 18:10

Aries are selfish fuckers. First ones to eat the fruit crumble. Always.

Get your ducks in a row.

Maybe roast duck with orange sauce? Mmm...

Milly345 · 02/10/2018 18:23

My first thoughts were Crimble Crumble too- after a nice bit of squirrel.

Love this thread.

Eljkr · 02/10/2018 19:08

My BIL ate my leftover curry once. Even had the guts to tell me he didn’t enjoy it!

Yanbu - leave the empty tray at the back door with a note "how could you????"

BabySharkDooDooDooDoo · 02/10/2018 19:42

Its bad enough to eat the leftovers but to cover the dish back up is a cold calculated move designed to cause maximum heartache. Change the locks and ltb quick sharp...

Celestia26 · 02/10/2018 20:10

OP you absolutely have to get your ducks in a row.......

winterisstillcoming · 02/10/2018 20:35

He's a narcissist.

MRSGGG · 02/10/2018 20:43

This is completely unacceptable!!

My husband did this to me early on in our relationship and I’m not how we ever survived this.

Back story:

Me: do you like pork pies
DH: nah not really
Me: thinks super pack of 6 will last all week...

Fast forward to day 6...thinking all day about getting in from work and having a pork pie with a nice cuppa and get in and he has eaten it.....apparently he does like pork pies.

Needless to say I went mental Angry Grin

Rooty2 · 02/10/2018 21:06

Am very relieved to discover I'm not the only one who has a DH with a talent for finding my chocolate stash! He always says he's just taking "his share" Angry
