Follow on from earlier AIBU thread...

I have a BAD cold.. i've been sick since wednesday. DH hasn't exactly been sympathetic, but thrusday night before he went to work i felt so bad i asked him to stay home to look after DS (18mo)

He said he couldnt and said "Only one more day and then you can do what you like"

So.. i battled through two more nights and still having a 99.6temp yesterday and being bitched at for not tidying up on thursday in the hope that today i'd get to do what i've needed to all week... that being stay in bed, in the warm and sleep and get better.

Ha! Fat f*cking chance of that.

Guess who didn't come to bed until 5am, and guess who's been up since 7.30?

Go and cchucck a very large glass of freezing cold water on him
What a shit.

Emprexia · 23/02/2008 09:48

i'm sorely tempted to go sneeze on him and when he gets this show him absolutely no sympathy whatsoever.

Put loud music on, a spot of hardcore drum and bass should do it.

what was he doing up until 5am?

if he promised you a day off, then he can damn well get up!

Mumcentreplus · 23/02/2008 09:58

Typical!

Go get the duvet off his inconsiderate ass snuggle down on the sofa and watch t.v or read a book with a hot drink and don't move!

WinkyWinkola · 23/02/2008 09:59

What a selfish man. Surely if you were ill, he should have come home to spoon feed you chicken soup and read you the newspaper or whatever to make you feel loved and cared for!

I'd wake him up by telling your toddler to jump on his head and hide the paracetemol!

RubySlippers · 23/02/2008 09:59

bloody hell - rip the duvet off him, throw him out of bed and get under the covers yourself

do not get out of bed until YOU feel much better

a low grade temp will make you feel rubbish so you NEED rest

Emprexia · 23/02/2008 10:02

he could possibly have fallen asleep on the sofa while watching TV.... he works nights so he's usually late to bed after sleeping friday afternoon.. but its not the point.

He was going to come to bed at 2am but DS woke up and needed mommy cuddles, so it was 2.45 before i got him back in his cot again.

what made me more mad ( at mrsruffalo) was being nudged at 5.50am and being told to stop snoring because it was keeping him awake!!

Well hey.. i can't breathe, because you know.. i've got a COLD!

because its not worth the hassle of hearing him shout at DS because he's tired and cranky from not enough sleep.

I'll give him til 12, then he'll have had 7hours sleep, i'll have had another lemsip and hopefully DS will be ready for his nap.. then i'm going to bed with my laptop, the guitar hero III game and my book and staying there ALL DAY!

me too! the only thing making this bearable is that DS is in such a good mood this morning... he keeps making me laugh.

will he take ds out for a few hours so you don't have to contend with any noise?

Emprexia · 23/02/2008 10:31

probably not.. although i'll get DS dressed just incase he does decide to go out for a bit.. he said something about going to get pizza for lunch from morrisons.

Deal this with attitude now, or you will have many more years of selfish behaviour and AIBU threads to come.

You are complicit in establishing these expectations and norms.
