DH has given DD all of her easter chocolate over the last week

I bought some small easter eggs and little mini egg things about a month ago for DD to do an easter egg hunt today. When I bought them, I said to DH these are for DD, don't eat them and don't give them to her because they are for easter. Put them in the cupboard under the stairs in an easter bucket thing so it was very clear.

Came downstairs today to find none of it is there. Asked DH and he said he's given it to her over the last week because he doesn't want her "eating it in one go".

AIBU for being really annoyed? I was really clear and was looking forward to doing this for her and had told her the easter bunny would be bringing her eggs and hiding them, so she knows we were meant to be doing this. All of the shops are shut today so I can't get any more.

DH has said that I'm over reacting for nothing, am ruining everyone's morning, should go back to sleep and f** off in general.

I will add he isn't usually a complete asshole.

@patchbatch higher standards 😂 no one on this thread knows the man to judge that except the OP. People are judging a person on one incident that they know about, and even then they only know the OPs side of the story. Attractive or not, arguing happens in the happiest relationships. No need to drag a mans name through the mud over chocolate eggs.

Don’t think DH has ever told me to fuck off whenever we have had an argument, especially when he was completely in the wrong

If you're happy with your partner telling you to fuck off that's up to you, I wouldn't. And yes, we only have this to judge them on, of which their actions are very unattractive.

@patchbatch
Not your place, or anyone elses place to judge what goes on in someone elses relationship. The op posted for a vent, not relationship counselling. And in my initial post I'm referring to the fact that people have called this man controlling, a vile person, a bad father and accused him of gas lighting over one incident, all the while OP has tried to defend him and said he apologised but you lot are still out for blood? Maybe try being less judgemental as a rule of thumb because that's also very unattractive.

I didn't say any of that stuff about him, don't get me wrong I give zero shits about their relationship- why would I care? Its a message board of course people comment, what an odd view.

It's an AIBU.

The OP posted AIBU for being really annoyed?

People are doing that answering thing.

What a thief of innocent joy your husband is OP.

FictionalCharacter · 18/04/2022 18:52

@Soubriquet

He’s a dick

He has also made himself out to be the favourite parent because he’s given her chocolate all week whereas you haven’t

This.
Mummadeze · 18/04/2022 19:03

So glad you managed to do an Easter hunt for her as promised. I think he was v v v unreasonable and I would have been livid.

cherish123 · 18/04/2022 19:56

I can't believe he did this.
Tell DD what happened and that you will go to the shops tomorrow and you'll do a hunt tomorrow.

cherish123 · 18/04/2022 19:56

Okay - just read you managed a hunt.

RachaelN · 18/04/2022 21:16

I've got to say he sounds like a right prick. The fact that you had to instruct him not to touch them is bad enough.

SnozPoz · 19/04/2022 07:49

DH is a selfish dick

threatmatrix · 19/04/2022 09:37

I bought my grandchildren little sweetie jars ( one doesn’t like chocolate) with their names on, put them in cupboard under the stairs , went to get them and my son had eaten them, I was absolutely fuming. So I feel your pain.

Jollypots · 19/04/2022 14:41

The whole "Easter Bunny" thing makes me very cross. Easter eggs are supposed to represent new life to commemorate Jesus's rise from the dead

PoshHorseyBird · 19/04/2022 16:59

He reckons he gave them to your daughter throughout the week so she wouldn't eat them in one go?? Bollocks did he!! He ate them himself!!
