We’re sitting the other evening and OH asks for help printing and email off of his phone. I oblige. It’s a returns label. It was a faff. OH then says he’s doing it for a complete stranger through his work (he delivers shit, not literal). So he has to print the label, package the item, PAY for the fucking postage AND send it.

Yet, I’ve been waiting a week and a half, ended up having to mess someone else around, to go and pick up a gumtree item for our DD’s bedroom.

I don’t even know how to describe this behaviour - thoughtless, selfish?? What the fuck is he doing?

So AIBU to have spoken to him about it, to then be told that I’m being “ludicrous” and “behaving like an idiot”, then when I’ve stomped (yep, not my finest adult moment) to our bedroom to disengage he’s only come and told I can come apologise “when I’ve calmed down”.

I’m justified in in being pissed of, am I not?!

Do other people’s partners do this, am I expecting too much?

Like if I ask if we can drive further to a cheaper shop I need to present a robust argument for the extra mile driven and then he’ll decide if my argument is worth it to him.

He likes to be seen as a Prince of a man by strangers. Wanker. YADNBU

What good things does he do for you, @PinkyU ?

What improvement does he bring to your family?

I don't think he'll change and I there's no way my DP would do that, and if I ask him to do something he will without a fuss.

Do you want to stay with him?
