So. DH and I are moving house, moving abroad in fact. Lots to do. We have 2 dc and alongside working we have to completely empty both living spaces and lives. The cupboards are bare. DC have a strict rotation of 6 outfits. My phone is out of credit and I am not renewing it. So. I ask dh if he can text the cleaner we've booked to come a bit later and he does so by ... Picking up my phone and sending the same message. From the same phone. What? Why? I'm cross.

People make mistakes and I do stupid things like this all the time. What an overreaction.

Cut him some slack he made a mistake. Doesn't sound like there was any malice or bad intent on his part, you are reading way too much into this. Try and relax and forget about it!

@SummerHouse - I may or may not have one that more than once. Grin

I still claim I'm not stupid. I don't expect my confessions will confirm that claim.

I'm a gender critical feminist, but I really do think their brains are different

You must be a delight to love with op.

I married a man like this. Fortunately I am also like it .

It was utter, unmitigated chaos when we moved house.

I imagine that moving abroad is going to be very stressful and if you’re letting a tiny thing like this get to you you’re going to be pretty frazzled by the time you finish. Chill out and learn to pick your battles.

God you sound high maintenance

Poor sod ..

You are my kind a people! (But don't ask me to help you move).

SummerHouse · 03/07/2019 19:06

See! I even bold failed!

15YemenRoad · 04/07/2019 19:16

You come across like serious hard work and exhausting. What an extreme reaction to something so trivial. Hmm

PCohle · 04/07/2019 19:22

God forbid you ever make a silly mistake that has absolutely no consequences...

Myheartbelongsto · 04/07/2019 19:25

Oh you're poor husband.

Never mind talking you down, he needs talking out of going abroad with you!

Myheartbelongsto · 04/07/2019 19:25
