Page 8 | Yoghurt Gate - WIBU?

MullerCornerMorons · 2023-01-18T08:16:09+00:00

With all the famine and BS going on in the world now, I’ll start off by apologising for the absolute ridiculousness of this AIBU. Just light hearted to see opinions…we have a demanding toddler so are constantly tired and grumpy. Get ready for it… Our rule book toddler has a yoghurt and fruit in the mornings before nursery, I knew yesterday when I left for work there was *ONE left.* Finished work got him for nursery (DH works lates) After his dinner last night he wanted a yoghurt, I said no as there’s only one and you’ll be sad if you don’t have a yoghurt in the morning, took some convincing cus, you know, toddlers! on DH way home from work he called & asked if we needed anything from the shop, I said well probably yoghurts, he said _no we have yoghurts. _ Before going to bed it became apparent DH had eaten said magical yoghurt before he went to work. Cut to this morning! toddler has thrown a ‘Tom Cruise on set’ style fit due to the lack of yoghurts in this establishment. DH came upstairs to me ranting that I shouldn’t have promised a yoghurt without checking, and even though he said there were yoghurts I should have checked in case he’d eaten it and didn’t remember - because how should he know right? YNBU - DH should be aware of his actions like a grown up without input from his wife and, moreover should also be living in constant fear of the day there is no yoghurts YABU - I should have checked when he said there were yoghurts as how can a poor bloke recall if he’s eaten the last yoghurt…who can be expected to recall 8 hours ago Finally (if you made it this far) - this is only meant to be lighthearted, DH is not abusive and is a truly wonderful man but it does infuriate me he has no forethought at all and when things go wrong it’s my fault for not stepping in…

He caused a problem, he couldn't deal with his child having a tantrum and he turned on you. That's not something nice men do.
Call him out on this bullshit instead of posting here, because this isn't about a yoghurt and that's not me being a 'gaslight gal'.

uncomfortablydumb53 · 18/01/2023 13:15

As he rang to ask specifically if you needed anything, he should've bought more anyway
My exh used to eat the kids chocolate mousses without saying anything

Storm in a yoghurt pot.

Catching up on lunch break, and praise the lord or L. Ron Hubbard as tiny toddler Tom Cruise would say (thanks PP 🤣) thanks to all those that understood the assignment that this genuinely was just light hearted @done4now @pelargoniums @Hereslookinatyoukid to praise a bit a few, many more obvs.

To the gaslight gals, I’m sorry I don’t have the drip feed (that you desperately hunt for) to come back and say, “well now you mention it, I’m not allowed to wear makeup, we have shared social media accounts and he often glasses me on a Friday night BUT only if I’ve incorrectly stock counted his stash of tenants super” instead I give you this:

Yes, my DH is a drip, he does struggle with mental load and pre planning and definitely shouldn’t have tried to deflect this morning - but he apologised swiftly and has also been out on a Y run before leaving for work.

Yes, he did need to ask me what we needed from the shop, as actually I am the house Mystic Meg and he does defer to me more than I’d like. Something I’m hoping sending him this thread will fix once and for all!

But

I have never used our lawn mower/strummer/hedge trimmer/jet wash/been to the tip/sort the shit in the garage or loft/put the recycling or bins out etc
DH 9/10 is the one to do the shopping
He is funny and warm and kind and silly and a great dad (when he’s not eating TTTC’s yogs)
Most importantly he’s hung like a donkey sooo won’t be LTB anytime soon..
He has a multitude of occasions where I’ve been the cock, and likely doesn’t post about said cockness to Reddit, so I think I win cock of the marriage

In answer to other posts, TTTC’s yog of choice is not a Muller Corner it’s Okyos. Glad we cleared that up, you can rest at peace now.

Also, allegedly DH didn’t know it was the last Yog…I know I hear it too. Plausible but he probably was just distracted with his only fans addiction so can’t be too hard on him

Hilarious!

Bookworm333 · 18/01/2023 13:28

I am catching up on this thread at lunch and it's hilarious. Nearly snorted my lunch up my nose at the unexpected mention of OP's husband being "hung like a donkey". Well, in that case, give the man some yoghurt! He needs to keep his energy up!

QueenSmartypants · 18/01/2023 13:32

@MullerCornerMorons brilliant!

Ormally · 18/01/2023 13:36

Well the Oykos reference is a drip feed... the general household code is that I'm not allowed a crack at any of those if they sitting on the fridge shelves either, and they usually last a maximum of 47 hours before mysteriously disappearing, if they are purchased.

Wait so

a) you were wrong to promise a morning yoghurt at night because you should have predicted that your husband might eat it, forget he had eaten it and mistakenly assure you there was yoghurt left and refuse to buy any more on that basis
b) your toddler's tantrum on discovery of the morning (no) yoghurt situation was purely motivated not by the actual lack of a yoghurt that forms his breakfast every single morning but rather his disappointment that you, his mother, would have rashly promised him yoghurt 12 hours before and then been unable to supply said yoghurt

Yeah I know that guy. "Something bad happened, how can I make it someone else's fault?"

Yeah he's a twat really. "Lighthearted" or not.

@Beees *Bought. Brought us a completely different word with a completely different meaning

Ahh, @SchoolTripDrama , in the finest traditions of correcting someone's spelling or grammar, your post also contains a typo/mis-spelling.

(Yes, I have triple checked my post now, lest the cycle continue!😂)

sueelleker · 18/01/2023 16:13

I was kidding about OP making her own yoghurt. Far too sugary, give the toddler some bone broth each morning instead – sacrifice one of those six cows to the cause!
Unless you use an American recipe [which includes coffee creamer and evaporated milk 😬]home made yogurt only needs milk and starter. You can add anything else you like afterwards.

musicalgymball · 18/01/2023 16:23

YANBU.

DH is not a baby, so why are you having to manage him as well as your baby?

He should know you need yoghurts
He should buy yoghurts when you ask him to
He shouldn't eat the last one of an item he knows your kid will have a meltdown over.

It's his job as much as yours to be keeping track in his head of what the kid needs, what's in the fridge, what needs to be bought, and not being too selfish to not eat the item the kid wants. The fact he seems to think it's your job to project manage the fridge inventory is the problem.

Oh and when you told him to buy more yoghurts he should have just said ok!

Wingedharpy · 18/01/2023 16:32

Well, TTTC had to inherit that tantrum gene from somewhere.....😏

Howtoberight · 18/01/2023 16:40

So he ate the yoghurt, you asked him to get more and he said no have some, and then blamed you for not having any?

Batshit behaviour.

Howtoberight · 18/01/2023 16:42

But apparently he has a large cock so all good 🤪

Some of you still gunning for DH even after I’ve responded I see, poor Donkey Dick.

YES! I agree he did a knobbish thing this morning, hence the post,
but I promise he’s not a knob overall. I’d be very interested in hearing about all your wonderful DH’s who’d obviously easily be able to suck up a TTTC verbal thrashing before presumably nipping out to buy you flowers because your hair looks pretty today and then serenading you with poetry hed written whilst NOT pooping at home, as he has more respect for you than that?

In reality this is what marriage is like when knee deep with a toddler though, your tired and grumpy with no time for yourself or each other, sleep deprived and snippy with each other. I won’t be holding on to this > until the next time when I’ll gladly throw it in his face of course!

IMO, may be unpopular, but as others have pointed out the real abuser here is TTTC, Nicole Kidman knew it, Katie Holmes knew it and yet here we all are, scared to speak out about the little tyrants ruling our lives…is there a support group I can join?

I cannot see anywhere in the OPS posts that she asked for some randoms views on what yoghurts she feeds her child?

Have I missed it?

Just laughing to myself that this has basically gone like this:

Me: Mumsnet, my DH has just done this isn’t he a dick?
Everyone: OMG we agree what a dick
Me after receiving an apology: Now now everyone, please don’t call my husband a dick, he cuts the grass

🤣😂😅 sorry as you were there obvs no saving me!

I just like to remind people that OP asks a question and requests answers on that, not on randoms choice of yoghurts and swirls of honey, because that shit is irrelevant.

I mean who gives a fuck what you think of swirls of honey in yoghurt 😆

I love your sense of humour OP, it's great!

Some MN cannot stand people being able to move on from yoghurtgates and the such like.

Miserable lives, but hey ho!

I ate my ex husbands avocados, I'm pretty sure that's why we are divorced.

Me wondering if there's any food that could have the same effect on stbxh.

Great thread op. And the updates!!🤣🤣🤣

Gerwurtztraminer · 18/01/2023 20:47

All I can hear playing in my head now is that song "Yes, we have no Bananas Yoghurts today" - on repeat. Thanks for that.
