Me and the DH decided to close our business at the beginning of lockdown we have moved into another area but I'm bringing in the majority of the money, I have also done all the schooling as we /I have gone educated or children for a few years now.
I do the lions share of the housework and I don't mind.
But this is the second time he has done this during lockdown.
He is a vegetarian I'm not any more, tonight I cooked him a veggie steak and I cooked a gammon for me, I lined the baking tray with foil and added a barrier and then made seperate tray with a baking sheet, so neither would touch and no juice transfer from one to the other and I even overlapped the baking sheet over the veggie steak to stop any splashes.
DH refused to eat his dinner because he peeped into the oven.
I'm wrong aren't I? I'm just Pissed off that he let me carry on cooking and making a salad when he knew he wasn't going to eat it, then he did the thing that bloody annoys me he washed up his plate but leaves the cutlery for me.
Oh and my 14 year olds voice is breaking so he is singing opera morning noon and night.

You're not wrong, you sound lovely. Hope your evening improves (with or without his company!)

I'm veggie and I would be fine with what you did.

What? Why are you blaming everything on yourself?

Why are you doing everything? The reason you told us your daily set up before you got to the point is because you do mind. And so you bloody should!

He gets his own food from now on. And maybe the lazy shit could start pulling his weight a bit too.

Nothing so annoying as a lazy shit who wont do owt but criticises the person who's doing it all.

Vegetarian here btw

I dont understand his issue with the food if they were separated on the tray

Some vegetarians wouldn't have minded how the OP cooked the meat and veggie dish together.

I'm veggie and on #TeamOP'sDH He'd have been able to taste the meat, it will have splashed onto the oven sides, roof and floor and the smell from that would taint his food.

But if that's the way OP's always cooks their different dishes and he's been fine with it up to now, then as other people have said, other issues need to be sorted.

It doesn’t matter that he didn’t get arsey, yell, or, visibly get the hump.

He did pull a dick move.

Tell him to keep his nose out of the oven or he can cook his own dinner from now on, and while he’s at it, he washes ALL the dishes or he gets them stuffed in his pillowcase until he learns to stop being such a knob.

And you! Stop being a doormat!

I have a teen son into doom metal. I get your pain :)
husband: he's an ass. But a grown man, so let him fix his own dinner.

Cam2020 · 31/07/2020 22:24

DH can make his own bloody dinner and when I say DH, I'm not thinking darling husband.

honeygirlz · 31/07/2020 22:29

Stop cooking for the twat. And make him do his equal share of housework.

BurtsBeesKnees · 31/07/2020 22:32

He's wasting good food, money, your time and effort and being a dick!

Let him cook his own bloody dinner from now onwards

What's your answer then? Cleaning the oven in between cooking two separate meals?
