To not tell my OH when dinners ready

And to let it go cold.
I text him to go to the shop and pick up something nice to cook for tea because it's nearly Christmas and were not spending it together.
He came home with two steaks and some potatoes.
I wondered why he didn't buy any veggies.. so asked "Didn't you get any veg?"
So he responded with "no we have frozen veg in the freezer if you want veg go and buy it your fucking self and not be ungrateful"
I wasn't being ungrateful I just wondered..

So now he's been upstairs for hours, had a 2 hour shower, has been satin the bedroom sulking for another hour.

Aibu to cook tea, eat mine and leave his out. If he wants to stay upstairs and sulk like a 5 year old then I know for a fact he'll smell the food and think I'll call him down whwnbits ready. Think again Mr.

This seems to me like a story that needs to be heard from both sides! You both sound very childish.

Hold on I can’t believe what I’m reading here. Let me get this straight...

You asked him to pick up dinner on his way home. He forgets the veg, you ask why and he swears at you and calls you ungrateful! Then sulks for hours before coming in the kitchen and pretending the dog is asking if you’re cooking dinner!

Wtf are you meant to be grateful he bought his own dinner??
He’s actually ridiculous and you shouldn’t accept someone speaking to you like that op.

we often pick up dinner when one of us are out and it usually consists of meat, side and veg

Off the point, but this seems an incredibly uneconomic way of dealing with catering.

Christ, what a storm in teacup! Do you both want to live life this for the rest of your lives? Seems exhausting to me. Maybe you both need to find someone else, or focus on the positives.

@Janecon glad someone else sees it as having 2 points of view, OPs and OHs.
Pretty sure OP has biased the story in her own favour and all the feminists on here right in with the husband bashing! As said before I would like to hear his side. To be honest OP comes across as moany and hard to please. She even admits OH is quiet and struggling with time of year, due to mum dying around this time, however no support from her, just complaints. FFS he was out earning extra money for them and comes home to this!! Get a grip OP before he realises that he can do much better than you and find someone who will support and appreciate him, instead of the complaints and moaning he gets from you!!
