Husband labelling HIS OWN FOOD

[MrsWestox]

Hi all
Now, am I being old fashioned here? Husband since 2014 has taken to labelling ALL the food he buys with a sharpie pen..which ironically I bought.. expecting no one to touch it. But when it comes to the food I buy..plus literally everything else from loo roll to bin bags to washing powder that I buy..is fair game for him to use or eat as he sees fit. So much for a shared household eh? Sharing is caring..( lol)! Has anyone else experienced this..? Am I being unreasonable to be totally razzed off by this?

Beat me to it Mrs P.

Very Discworldian logic & consequences 😁

Why are you with him?

What’s his reasoning when it’s been discussed ?

Hmmmm this is kind of it as my 2 kids are in their 20's and still at home. But..and this is a big one, he is quite happy to hoover up stuff which isnt his " property" and he has not contributed to.. which does PROPERLY razz me off in the extreme. He does this quite blatantly. So what's mine is everyone's..but what's his is HIS with a red sharpie saying so..😔

i'd be using the pen to write " get lost and find somewhere else to live ", on all his foods!

I'd lick every single thing he labelled.

Husband since 2014

Although I get the 😡& 🙄- can't help but admire the accuracy of your recall.

Is there a special anniversary every year, when you allow yourself to break the tippex out for some passive-aggressive entertainment?

sorry bold fail etc - Husband since 2014 has taken to labelling

Did he have a fall, hit his head, and wake up believing he is living in student accommodation with a shared fridge?

Eureka!! This explains EVERYTHING!!

Did he grow up with food insecurity or trauma?

What the fuck? How can you be married to this cunt?

You are mad to stay in this 'marriage'.

Where is your self worth?

Nothing else to add.

I'd take a bite out of literally everything of his. Every last thing. Toothmarks in the butter and all.

Unwind a loo roll a few turns and then write in big letters on one sheet 'THIS SHEET BELONGS TO MrsWestox'. Then roll up the loo roll again for him to find the sheet

Add a post-it note 'licked by MrsWestox'

😂😂

I had housemates as a student who said they would take to tactics like that if we started stealing food.

Print some not for dad labels, and stick them everywhere.

Why live with him?

why why WHYYYYY do women put up with idiotic behaviour like this?

where is your self respect?

It’s really bizarre. I know you have to be careful with suggestions like this, but it’s bizarre enough that is it possible he’s actually unwell and should speak to his GP?

Have you asked him why he’s doing it?

If not, then you’re both a little odd.

How have I been on this planet for 7 decades & never heard the golden phrase shit ticket before? Thank you Greensleeves 😂😂😂

Also, your stonking rant deserves👏👏👏& a weekly column in a national newspaper for its author.

@savoycabbage excellent reference there

Beats me..

As you buy food/ household goods, sharpie it all with your and children’s names and maybe add his at the bottom to show you can share with everybody in the family, as a normal person.

I had a friend who’s husband did this. We were both baffled. If it was me I’d just eat whatever I liked and ignore the sharpie till it goes away……or label everything
