If your DP/DH smokes

And does it "outside", does he actually go outside or does he do what mine does and stands just in the doorway, therefore leaving the doors wide open and letting all the heat out and the cold in? I've asked him several times to actually close the door behind him but he refuses and doesn't care everybody else is getting cold.

So AIBU not wanting the outside door eft open every hour when it's freezing cold and actually icy outside?

exactly the same.

Wouldn’t have DH or a DP that smokes. So no you’re definitely not being unreasonable. The smoke must come in as well as the cold.

Tell him how much money he is wasting.

Getting an indoor cat that can't be allowed to escape outside solved that one for me...

And no YANBU

The few smokers I socialise with go out and shut the door behind them, because they aren't twats.

Wouldn’t have a DP who smoked, next time he does it kick him in the arse push him out the door and lock it behind him

YANBU to ask him to shut the door. How inconsiderate

Yuck your house must stink.

Smoking and selfishness- what a winning combination.

bleurgh

Dh vapes but I still make him do it outside because vapes stink. He does go outside properly and shuts the door behind him. Why does your DH refuse?

Bufferingkisses · 01/12/2019 14:16

Outside, door closed. 1, we don't pay to heat the garden and 2, why bother going outside if you're just going to let the smoke in the house.

Luckily my partner is a stereotypical tight Yorkshire man who does not believe in wasting money so it's easy for us.

Outside and he closes the door.. luckily my DH cares about the other ppl in his family. Yours sounds like a selfish ass!

Namechangeymcnamechange11 · 01/12/2019 14:17

My DH knows I hate it. He goes to the end of the road usually so I don't even have to look at him smoking/DC don't see him smoking. He then goes and uses mouthwash. The smell still lingers though.

If he smoked outside the front door without even closing it, I'd go spare. Incredibly selfish, especially with DC around.
