To be fed up on holiday

Urgh. It's hard work. First world problem I know I am lucky to be here etc etc but can someone link me to the other thread about how hard work holidays are so I can wallow?
And DH said my new dress (approved by S and B board) makes me look like a toilet roll cover...

And wincing whilst taking a photo of me- "urgh your arms don't look great.." LTB??

Show us the dress.

Crunchymum · 17/08/2019 19:57

And yep he sounds like a cunt. Wincing whilst taking photos? Vile.

Whoopstheregomyinsides · 17/08/2019 19:58

I can't really do a selfie at the bar while Volare is in full swing sadly. Shit. He's just picked up my phone read this too...

That’s so mean of him. Why would he say that? No wonder you’re fed up on holiday if that’s the company you keep. Is he helping with DC (if you have any?) sorry he said that, your DH should be building you up and seeing the best in you.

timshelthechoice · 17/08/2019 20:00

What? Good! He's a nobber for saying that.

Jenala · 17/08/2019 20:01

DH are you reading? You sound like a cunt.

BuildBuildings · 17/08/2019 20:01

Cheeky bugger. I'm sure he's talking shit about your dress. How old are your children? Holidays with kids in tow are definitely hard work.

averylongtimeago · 17/08/2019 20:01

So husband of the OP- if you can't say anything nice, say nothing at all.

Rude remarks about your partner's arms and dress are not called for, OK?

BuildBuildings · 17/08/2019 20:02

Omg did he mean your arms look bad in the pic?! Twat

FurrySlipperBoots · 17/08/2019 20:03

What a nasty individual he must be.

ethelfleda · 17/08/2019 20:04

I so desperately want a holiday - me, DH, beach sea sunshine and cocktails! But have a nearly two year old so there is no bloody point ☹️

LagunaBubbles · 17/08/2019 20:08

Holidays shouldn't be hard work. Holidays with dickhead partners however may well be. How is your relationship generally?

Chilledout11 · 17/08/2019 20:09

Arsehole of a man.

Your husband sounds totally vile.

Whoopstheregomyinsides · 17/08/2019 21:29

To balance things out he says if I mention he has a spot/ ear wax (.and I have to say I do- I sound awful too now ) then we are equally insulting.
It's the general mood soothing I have to do that has riled me generally but the arms comment? Hmmm. Not sure. I broke my shoulder 8 weeks ago and not exercised since so am fat but was really quite hurt. We seem to have lost our ability to like each other

OI - woop’s DH
Stop being a dick, unless you are perfect you are in no position to criticise, and even if you are perfect maybe just try and be nice as well!

francienolan · 17/08/2019 21:35

Hugs OP.

Missingstreetlife · 17/08/2019 21:55

There is a theory that if you treat someone as if you like them it may become true, Esp if you were once close.
He's still a knob

Whoopstheregomyinsides · 17/08/2019 22:11

We were very close. Really in love
But he wasn't so keen on having children and it's slipped away since then. Very little family support. 4 nights away in 12 years so we've lost our way and forgotten how to be nice. I'm exhausted and feel a pain in the arse to him. The injury and his reaction kind of froze my heart to him. It was an accident. I was really badly hurt and still sore but the impact on him was the biggest pain

CallmeAngelina · 17/08/2019 23:01

Whoa. This is so not about the dress. Or your arms.
Thanks for you.

likeafishneedsabike · 17/08/2019 23:44

So actually this is less about being fed up on holiday and more about being in a bad place with your relationship?
The 4 nights away in 12 years is a red herring. We don’t have time away from the DC at all but that doesn’t give DH a reason to be rude and unkind!!

EustaciaPieface · 18/08/2019 00:15

Eight weeks with no exercise does not make you fat! You poor thing, he should be looking after you!

BanginChoons · 18/08/2019 00:23

Can you imagine a life where no one puts you down? Where you get to make your own choices, from what to have for dinner to where and when to holiday, to what you want to do with your career, without having to take someone else's negative opinion into account? Where you don't have to put someone else's mood before yours, Every. Single. Time....?

Time to think about what you want the rest of your life to be like.
