AIBU to be annoyed at DH for eating some of my dinner?

28 replies

Was planning to eat my Indian takeaway leftovers for my dinner tonight as I had a big lunch.

DH knew this and still helped himself to two spoonfuls of the sauce, when there was hardly anything in the pot anyway, see pic.

Is this grounds for divorce?! Ok the post is a lot more lighthearted than that, but would you be annoyed?

You should have turned on voting. You would have got a resounding YANBU!

Women have killed for less.

If he had of eaten chicken maybe but no not a bit of sauce.

BigFatLiar · 15/02/2020 20:43

I think you're unreasonable thinking that's enough for dinner.

usersouthcoast · 15/02/2020 20:44

Nope, not annoyed in the slightest.

RightOnTheEdge · 15/02/2020 20:44

YANBU! There's hardly any left.
I love the sauce the best. I hate food with not enough sauce Sad

@RightOnTheEdge I couldn’t agree more it’s all about the sauce, I’d rather he’d had some of the chicken.

LTB (lighthearted)
Nobody is touching MY food without consequences 😡 (this is serious! 😂)

HilaryBriss · 15/02/2020 21:07

It looks like he's had half the chicken! If you did only save 2 bits of chicken then that's plenty of sauce.

Furrydogmum · 15/02/2020 21:10

Selfishness is selfishness.. I would be annoyed.

FruityWidow · 15/02/2020 21:11

I can't get worked up about the sauce but the air would be blue if he touched my chicken.

5zeds · 15/02/2020 21:14

Why won’t you share with him? I think YAVU

YesIReallyDoLikeRootBeer · 15/02/2020 21:17

Definitely LTB no one should touch your sauce!

MoaningMinniee · 15/02/2020 21:21

Yanbu, and I've been umming for a couple of hours about what takeaway for tonight... Chicken Pasanda has just won!

MoaningMinniee · 15/02/2020 21:22

And a Peshwari Naan. Luscious!

Queenoftheashes · 15/02/2020 21:23

I’d go mental

JOEY DOESN'T SHARE FOOD!

The more I think about it, the more likely divorce is!

DH knows the sauce is my favourite part. I purposely left as much sauce as I did as I wanted all my left over rice to be covered in it. I’d have eaten more last night if I was happy to have two spoonfuls less tonight.

I’m not the best at sharing, I know that, but wasn’t sure if it was the pregnancy hormones that was making me overreact.

Absolutely outrageous, OP. But if you divorced wouldn't he be entitled to half the remaining sauce? And then what would you do? Surely the patio is the way to go?

@BoomBoomsCousin you make a very good point. I’m now wondering how I can make it look like this storms fault 🤔
