To LTB for eating the ice cream? (Lighthearted. Ish.)

Preface - DP is fabulous. We are very much a team.

OR SO I THOUGHT.

We have two DC - DD who is 3 and a demanding tantrum filled threenager, and DS who is 3.5 months.

DP is currently in the US for 2+ weeks for work. In the week before he left we went to the shops and I picked up a Ben and Jerry's low fat ice cream tub which I had tried previously and really enjoyed; I pointed this out to him at the shop when I popped it in the trolley. I didn't specifically buy it for me, we generally share these things after dinner. We didn't eat it before he left.

Today and this evening have been haaaard work with various meltdowns and screaming fits, and so after a struggle to get DD to bed I thought I know, I'll get DS down then pour myself a glass of wine and eat the ice cream. Note - I would have replaced the ice cream before DP's return for him to also enjoy one evening. I would not have hidden the fact that I'd eaten the ice cream.

But.... It's not bloody there!!! He's bloody eaten it and not even told me!!

He knows I'm here with the two kids, by myself. He could have let me know he'd eaten it!

WIBU to LTB over this? Seriously reconsidering our upcoming nuptials... 😂

LTB immediately! Change the locks and leave all his belongings in a bin bag in the garden.

YANBU. On the bright side at least he left you the wine. Next time I would pick up a couple of tubs and specify that one is for 'in case of an emergency' and consumption is reserved for when when either of you is looking after the kids alone. 😀
