To name and shame my DH in the village Facebook group. Sort or Coronavirus ....

DH has diabetes. I have to shop for my sister and disabled child.

I stick to all the CV rules to the letter, wear mask, gloves etc.

DH shops at least once a day and goes out in his twatty little sportscar.

Today he went over to some private land he has access too and did some target shooting with an air rifle (all legal) (not the issue).

Says hello to a friend but socially distances (he says). Washes hands when he comes home (like I give a flying f)

Aibu to put on the local Facebook page....if anyone sees a twat target shooting up by the water tower and driving a green sportscar, can you tell him to come home his dinners ready?

Obviously I can't now, as I didn't know where he'd been earlier, but if he does it again, should I do this?

I'd love an anonymous phone line, I'd snitch on him in a heartbeat.

I am actually furious folks

He's an adult. He can make his own choices. Why are you so angry with him?

onanothertrain · 13/04/2020 21:27

Why would you do something so bitchy? You clearly despise him so just leave.

saturdaynightathome · 13/04/2020 21:28

I'd be angry at him too. Risking your health and others by not following guidance.

I genuinely don't understand why some people are so oblivious.

Beelzebop · 13/04/2020 21:30

Expect him to react like you're totally unreasonable.

YABU

MylittleLovebug · 13/04/2020 21:33

Keep your shit behind closed doors, nothing worse than someone's domestic playing out on fb. People have enough to worry about than snitching on your husband

IKEA888 · 13/04/2020 21:34

confused here... what's the issue

sickofhim · 13/04/2020 21:34

I think the rules are very clear. Essential journeys only for food and medicine/medical treatment. Notfor target practice and saying Hi to friends. I'm worried for him, me and my nephew and sis.

He's already acting like I'm unreasonable. I think I'll go and stay with my sis and leave him to fend for himself. I'll come home in 2 months time to find some starving husk, like the film se7en

Just get divorced. You clearly do not like him.

Do you actually respect or like this man? I'm sure some posters will be around to tell you how YANBU, but if you were a husband posting about his wife it would read as quite appalling.

Biscuit for you.

Monsterjam · 13/04/2020 21:41

Good idea to go stay somewhere else, I have a suspicion this man would spend a lot less time outside the home then

Whatifitallgoesright · 13/04/2020 21:43

Oh come on people. Any other post about someone making unnecessary journeys which could lead to infection of a vulnerable person and everyone's crying selfish bastard. What's going on here? Are you all his mates?

Mistystar99 · 13/04/2020 21:45

You hate your husband.

onanothertrain · 13/04/2020 21:46

whatif nope they are all petty as fuck as well

sickofhim · 13/04/2020 21:46

@Monsterjam Ooh. V passive aggressive bitchy. Nice one

I like him usually, just can't get my head around him risking his life.

The village fb group is like some crazy curtain twitching coven of witches. I love it. We outdo each other on ratting neighbours who are having BBQs, out. He is also an avid fan, so I wouldn't get away with it sadly.

I hate 'twatty little sports cars'

lljkk · 13/04/2020 21:48

you don't sound compatible, OP.
I dunno how that move will play in the divorce court afterwards, though.
I think I'd focus on the pragmatic things, like how you want to divide the finances & custody of the kids.

Krisskrosskiss · 13/04/2020 21:50

I get you... I feel angry when I'm worried about someone who doesnt seem to be helping themself at all. Idont think you hate your husband you are just more worried about him than he is about himself... and I know how annoying that is... to be the one who has to worry about things whilst everyone else just gads about oblivious.
I think you should just go and stay elsewhere... ifanything just for your own peace of mind and to relax. He is an adult and you are not responsible for him... perhaps when he sees hes going to have to take responsibility for himself he will actually think to moderate his behaviour... I think right now you probably just need some space away from the stress of watching him not take things seriously

PippaPegg · 13/04/2020 21:53

Eh? Just tell him to stop being a bellend?

TorkTorkBam · 13/04/2020 21:54

Sounds like you are both seeking maximum wind up of each other. Like siblings annoying each other on purpose to get a rise.

Go to your sisters.

BringMeSunshineInMyLife · 13/04/2020 21:55

I stick to all the CV rules to the letter, wear mask, gloves etc.

What rules would they be?

TheBlueStocking · 13/04/2020 21:58

If you don't like him, why are you with him?

SunshineCake · 13/04/2020 21:58

Go and live with your sister and then you're breaking the rules...

Fruitsaladjelly · 13/04/2020 21:59

Yabu wearing gloves which has been widely advised against and the mask only protects others

Geepipe · 13/04/2020 22:00

Yeah i dont think your marriage is working out. You sound like you utterly hate him and i honestly cant see what he has done wrong. As long as he isnt meeting up with people its fine. Why would you be thrilled to have a stasi style phone line to report him for doing fuck all?
