Last night DH and I had an argument because he put the heating on in order to dry clothes over the radiators.

We live in a small 2 bedroom flat in central London and it was absolutely boiling - it gave me a bad headache.

I've just popped out to the shop to buy dinner (the washing machine was going when I left) and I've returned to the radiators blasting out heat with clothes over them.

I am so fucking hot. Aibu to think this is madness???

We have a washer/dryer and a rack for drying clothes.

What the hell!! They will dry just fine without the radiators on in this heat. Remind him how much your bills will be if he keeps it up. And how you're suffering for it!

Wow.

I don't say this lightly. LTB.

SnapPop · 12/06/2023 19:11

YANBU he is insane!

Aquamarine1029 · 12/06/2023 19:13

I. Would. Kill. Him.

Seriously, is he really this thick? How can anyone be that stupid?

BelindaBears · 12/06/2023 19:13

This is a leavable offence.

It's currently 27°c in my living room. Can't imagine putting the heating on 🫠 any clothes that I brought in yesterday because of the rain were dry by this morning just by hanging them in the bathroom. LTB 😂

Is he trying to cause your home to go mouldy?

Got a patio?

WilkinsonM · 12/06/2023 19:15

That's extraordinarily stupid of him

WhereYouLeftIt · 12/06/2023 19:15

Bloody hell! I'd have ripped his balls off and worn them as earrings for being so stupid.

planthelpadvice · 12/06/2023 19:16

Good grief!

Newcareer2023 · 12/06/2023 19:17

I would not be happy as a compromise buy him a heated electric airer they don’t give out much heat.

HaveWeGotAnyCake · 12/06/2023 19:17

Is he insane?! It's been boiling hot weather, why couldn't he have put it on a clothes horse outside?

Blahblahblahblahyay · 12/06/2023 19:17

Is he from the sun? Why does he want to be so hot!

Turn them off immediately.

Sincerely,

SugarGliders · 12/06/2023 19:18

Thank god I am not alone. He genuinely doesn't seem to understand how ridiculous this is. He said, "I just wanted to give it a quick blast."

I'll add, he's not an idiot (even though it pains me to say it) and I have no idea what's got into him.

I've had to take my contact lenses out because my eyes are so dry.

As soon as I got in a ripped all the clothes off the radiators and turned the heating off.

Good for you!

That deserves a cold shower and a glass of wine 🤣

WilkinsonM · 12/06/2023 19:23

A quick blast?! Does he know how heating works ?!

LillyoftheMountain · 12/06/2023 19:24

He has a problem.

WhereYouLeftIt · 12/06/2023 19:28

'He said, "I just wanted to give it a quick blast." '

Then he should have used the hairdryer!

savethegorgeousbees · 12/06/2023 19:29

What a fuckwit

Preps · 12/06/2023 19:31

I've got clothes hanging on radiators to dry (becuase that's the only place for them) but the radiators aren't on!!! They still dry.

Radiat · 12/06/2023 19:32

I’d want to explode at him, but you’re probably too warm to expend that energy. What an eejit!
