For being totally and absolutley pissed off royally at DH?? <<screams>>

[FumingJustFuming]

Have namechanged...

He collects things, these specific things. I hate them. They are all over his computer room and i mean ALL over, everywhere, not a space on the wall.

Boxes of them in the attic, random ones all over my house. Piles of them boxed. Opened. Doing f**k all but taking up space.

He cant go out shopping without buying one.

I fucking hate them.

Range from about £4 - £100 in value,

but he has hundreds,

And we discussed it the other night, I told him it was getting ridiculous.

We are on a tight budget and we goes out and gets 2, and says they were only £4 each -

YES BUT WHEN YOU BUY THEM CONSTANLY ITS EXPENSIVE!

So we talked and he agreed it was getting out of hand and we didnt have the money for it.

Anyway I needed some money in my paypal to pay for something and he told me to go on his account and transfer some.

So I did and noticed the latest transaction (i swear I wasnt snooping, it didnt even occour to me anything had gone on!)

and ways reciept for payment for $140!!! for one of these things!!!

almost £70!!!! After we had agreed no more!!

I just went down stairs told him I knew, he looked shifty and said it was the last one! (yeah right!!) and just came back up here.

I am in tears.

Im so pissed off. I dont know what to do anymore, its too much

serious question (and I identify with this topic a bit)....do you find it a bit embarrassing?

Please tell us? Its driving me mad

Novelty loo roll covers? train sets? football cards?

star wars figures?
teapots?
trains?

Is it sci-fi figurines? Those revolting plates off the back of Sunday supplements of crying children and poodles? Morse code machines?

Come ON woman I want to go to bed!

Toy cars?
my dh collects those

it cant be that bad can it?

He needs to indulge his hobby with his money not the family's. Dh and I pay all the bills, put away savings and then split evenly the money left over every month. It is up to us how we spend it. Perhaps this will curb his spending? I would also insist he buy a shed for the garden to hold his collection.

Take away all finances access.

Give him pocket money.

And curl your top lip when he protests, silently. Raise one eyebrow if you can.

stamps? socks? nose hair trimmers?

Yup Lulu, its action figures.

well not just figures from sci-fi movies, comics, comic films, starwars, aliens vs predetor, horror movies, video games

I hate them, i hate that he spends so much money on these little plastic men that do nothing!!!

take his collection hostage

Those glass thermometers with the floaty bits? Novelty fake dog poo? Monocles?

And Lulu i think you know who I am, pleaase dont out me! lol

Im too ashamed!

action figures?

oh dear.

can we take the piss out of him, or are you not in that kind of mood............

Oh dear. My friend collects those.

I thought it was going to be really bad, thats not bad,

Oh, you've answered already. I know what you mean, DP collects everything to do with Dr Who, and has done since a child. The attic's full of it.

They would be wiorth an absolute fortune if you can sell them. Especially if they're still in the packaging. Sorry if this isn't helpful....

unless he fights with them

would he notice if a few went missing every now and again?

i have pictures of his room its awful.

Every man who visits thinks its brilliant though

The women just roll their eyes.
