Grounds for divorce? Tell me this is not normal...

[CatsArePeople]

OH never opens food packaging properly - he rips it to shreds. Stabs butter foil in the middle, the same with yogurt or cream. This morning, bag of catfood - resealable bag - ripped through the side... i want to scream.

Clearly YANBU. But if I told you to LTB, I would be forced to leave my own DH, who behaves in exactly the same, utterly unreasonable manner.

He sounds like an animal. Definite divorce.

Definite grounds. My partner does most of these things. Fine if the whole lot is going to be eaten in one sitting but it rarely is!

I'm sorry to have to tell you this but you've married a psychopath.

This!

I divorced one of these. No regrets! (He was also a cheat and a liar)

Clearly, you've married a raccoon....

Oh dear this is me. I think if DH ever divorces me it will be for this reason

He sounds like an animal. Definite divorce.

And there is no training possible :(

Sad to admit I’m also a psychopath raccoon ☹️

Me too. It’s not wilful in my case, I try to open things ‘properly’ but they always end up looking like some kind of woodland animal has been at them with claws and/ or teeth.

DH mentioned it in his wedding speech, so it’s not like he didn’t know what he was getting into.

Raccoons have manners. Have you not seen all the videos of them scoffing food?

goes down the wormhole of cute raccoons politely asking for snacks

Oh dear. I can be a bit like this - my coordination is rubbish though so I usually aim to do it neatly but can't pull it off.
I am generally apologetic though and I think that's the difference.
DH (affectionately I think) makes comments about it looking like a bear's been in the kitchen

ok, i can understand that some packaging can be shitty, an using scissors is too much to ask... but what's the excuse to stab butter?

Also this 😂

This is my DH all over. He often opens bread (Warburtons paper bags) at both ends because he "forgot he'd opened the other end". WHY??

YANBUA to LTB over this behaviour, he's clearly narcissistic and doesn't care for anyone else's preference to not have food be damaged or fly everywhere.

🤣

Urgh my ex did this. Couldn't even open a fucking chocolate bar wrapper that had explicit instructions ("pull apart here") or a pack of biscuits with the little ribbony thing at the top. Dirty bastard also mused to pick his teeth with said wrappers 🤢

We like fancy sourdough from the bakery, but DH cannot bear to have a smallish piece near the tapering ends. He cuts it right down the middle so he can have a big slice of bread. Also pretends not to know where anything in the kitchen is kept (that's a different issue but I needed to say it).

OMG! My dh is exactly the same. The worst thing is wet wipes of any description, he rips the packet open, uses one and the rest all dry up and have to be thrown away. I can't tell you how many times we argues about this when the children were in nappies!

No actually I would divorce my H if he cut a loaf open in the middle, Just NOT happening in my house

That would drive me insane!!

Mine does this, I blame his mother as she did the same. His father is normal.
DH also rips tin foil in half, if I have covered a plate to keep it warm, rather than peeling it off. I can’t re cover the same plate and have to get new foil to cover the leftovers for the fridge.

OMG! My dh is exactly the same. The worst thing is wet wipes of any description, he rips the packet open, uses one and the rest all dry up and have to be thrown away.

This happened yesterday. Floor wipes. I managed to rescue them with sellotape. Apparently he didn't find the opening...
