To think DH might have at least said well done?

[Feetupteashot]

Texted him earlier to say at the meeting I'd had at work I was offered a promotion. He had expected that but I hadn't.

He's come home in a grump, plonked himself in front of the TV and hasn't even said well done

Having a slightly sad celebratory g and t alone

Congratulations OP! Can I be the first to say Well Done. He's a tit.

I'm sorry, op. That's just really shit of him. I know you weren't expecting a bloody parade, but a cuddle and a "well done" would have been nice. I would be hurt by that, too.

Congratulations on your promotion.

Congratulations, get yourself something nice with your salary increase x

Well done on your promotion. Congratulations! Too bad about grumpy DH. It's not as if you were both up for the same promotion.

Huge congrats

Why is he in a grump though, does he not want you to get promoted?

Did he not even text back? What an arse. Congratulations op. Well bloody done. You are awesome. Don't forget it.

Congratulations you awesome OP you.

Ask him what his issue is tomorrow.

That's amazing @Feetupteashot. Well done!!
Don't mind grumpy arse!

Thank you all, greatly appreciated and I am cheered up!

I don't know, he's a grumpy person I guess

I am not cooking any supper which, I think we can all agree, is a very mature response.

Why is he grumpy?!

Congratulations that's brilliant news!!

Congratulations OP! That’s such great news.

Is this out of character for him? Order yourself a lovely takeaway

Why is he grumpy? Have you asked after him?

Of course he should have congratulated you, but if my DH had come home upset on a day when there was such good news, I'd be worried not sulking. Unless of course this is usual for him.

Did he reply to the text?

He sounds like a complete arsehole

Huh I'd be miffed.
Is he generally a jealous person?

Congrats op! Is he jealous?

Congratulations OP, fantastic news for you, well done .

I agree with PP, get a huge, mouth-watering takeaway for 1.. or better still, get one for 2 and eat it all yourself

Congratulations!!

Is the issue that he was expecting one and didn't get one so he's jealous?

Hardly a kind or mature response to ignore you and make you feel shit about it.

Can you have a celebration with friends?

Does he have green eyes ?

Doubt he's jealous, he has a decent job

I've complained, we've had a minor barney. However I have the remote now so thats quite good

Not cooking supper? Oh, this promotion has really changed you!

I have, he's stressed as the kids were difficult to get to bed. Which has been the case for about 3 years now

Order a takeaway just for yourself

Congratulations on your promotion OP, well done. He sounds like an arse, he should be celebrating with you, even if he’s in a bad mood he’s an adult and can put that to one side.

Are you the breadwinner by any chance, or getting close to overtaking him salary wise? I’m wondering if he’s intimidated by your success and that’s why he’s grumpy.

Absolutely raising a glass and well done to you!

Don't let him take the edge off your glory xx

Well done! Plan a celebration with friends and buy yourself something lovely
