Does your DH ask 'stupid' questions?

[Brightburn]

Urghhh! Please tell me I'm not the only one who gets fed up of their DH asking 'stupid' questions they already know the answer to but are to lazy to think for themselves so ask you to think for them.

Today's example... DH gets dirty chopping board out of dishwasher, what have you used this for this morning? ... Cutting sausages, as you watched me do it and asked me to cut yours too.

Very petty, very unreasonable but it just winds me up

Anyone else had a looong Easter weekend?

My DH does this too and it drives me crazy. In the morning, oh why is the kettle boiled? Because I'm making coffee like I've done every morning for God knows how many years

I honestly don't get it, I think he's doing it on purpose

Was he considering Not washing it? It could have touched anything in the dishwasher.

Mine will ask where various items are, even though I know he knows as he gets them when I'm out. Or ask where his keys are and get cross when I don't magically know.

"What should I feed the kids?" look in the cupboards and see what we have!
"What should I put on DD for nursery?" Any clothes that are not smart/new/ very nice!.
Takes food out fridge, "How do I cook this?" Read the bloody packet!

Yes! All the time! Drives me crackers!

Where are ds’s shoes? In the cupboard where they always bloody are!

All. The. Fucking.Time.

With my ex I was constantly saying ‘just because I have a uterus it doesn’t mean I instinctively know how many potatoes to peal/ where your keys are/ what setting in the washing machine to use’

Yep - I just ignore him now! He's slowly getting better

Yes, Sarturday I ordered a cheap gazebo from argos because it was boiling and the garden has no shade. He had been upstairs 'resting' for 5 hours so I just did it. My parents were here so it came and we put it up. He was not pleased and told me I would have to take it down and put it up again on my own.
Sunday, we have to leave for church 9:30, (he is only required to come on special occasions, I take DD weekly) he announced at 8am that he was going for a 1.5 hour run. Had told him Friday what was happening. So, he screamed at me for being unreasonable and still went running. My mother heard and started crying, at least DD was still asleep. He came jogging bk at 9:25 so we had to wait and he made us all late.
I told him after, when he asked why I was ignoring him, that he was unreasonable and that I had had to give up my hobby because I was forced to ring him every week to remind him to be home on time (more like beg him to come back to bath and his daughter.) I got shouted at again and informed that when I get a job and stop sitting on my arse spending all his money without permission then I can have a hobby. My mother cried again. My dad is furious and poor DD was happy playing on her new easter toy.
He proceeded to sit there all day whilst everyone got on with everything around him. He even made drinks for himself without offering.

I am seriously considering this to be our last easter together.

My DH does this really annoying thing where he genuinely looks like he's really listening to me. He answers me, engages in conversation. But then when reminded a couple of days later does not remember anything.

E.g. me: it's school trip next week DH: oh that's nice. Me: can you pick up DS as they get back early and I'm working DH: yes no problem. Me: are you sure? DH: yes completely fine! ......

Next week- me: so you are picking up DS today right? DH: no why do you think that? Me: we discussed it last week DH: no we didn't

Grrrrrrr

I forgot to include the stupid questions in my rant but you can imagine what they were.

Not really, but I know I regularly repeat questions because I forget his first answer.

I probably need binning.

Today I asked dh if he knew where my orange sports top is.
He starts asking for a description...
In a household of 8 I am the only one with an item of orange.
And dh does the laundry...

Yes. Endless annoying questions. Genuinely baffled at how they kept us from having the vote til fairly recently.

Mine does this all the time. The worst is the lazy “have we got a.....whatever?” Which translates as “Can you go and get this item and bring it to me because I can’t be arsed, so I am pretending I think we don’t even have one”. Drives me bloody nuts.

Don't think about it, do it. Your Husband is an arse. You and your DD deserve more then this.

AmphetamineGazelle That sounds rather more serious than a few stupid questions. He sounds like a nightmare.

Where's the cheese grater, foil etc. In the same place as it always is!!! Every time he asks without fail!

DH will be looking directly at his phone and will ask me what time it is. He is completely baffled that I get pissed off by this. I’m his wife not the fucking talking clock. Move your eyes like 6 centimetres and check the time yourself you lazy git

Oh yes. Regularly. I tjink im getting through to him now by refusing to enable him on several occassions. Like when he is preparing dinner and asks how much of x should he put in when the recipe book is open right next to him. Or him asking if its ok to go out on x date and me saying well what does it say on the calendar.

@AmphetamineGazelle that is beyond this thread and in abuse territory. I really hope it is your last easter with him.

“Where is *some kitchen item?” Where its been since we moved here!

Another one which makes me laugh- what's the weather like outside? We've just woken up at the exact same time how on earth would I know!?

From the sound of all of your posts, they probably ask questions before doing something because they're scared of being told off when they inevitably do it 'wrong'

AmphetamineGazelle

He sounds horrible. No wonder your mum was crying. I really hope it is his last Easter with you.

@AmphetamineGazelle

That sounds horrid. And frankly abusive.

Rescue your daughter.
Give yourself a new lease on life.
Give your parents a big sigh of relief.
And leave that bastard.
