I need your help with sneaky DH

Took rings off last night left on side of the kitchen sink.
Came down from work and engagement ring has disappeared....mild panic.

Sneaky DH has hidden the ring. I've feigned disinterest but the stakes are high - we now have a game and I have all morning to find it.

All I've been told is it's somewhere in the kitchen. I've had most of the cupboards out and looked in all the glasses etc.

We have young DC so it's nowhere they would be able to find it.

All very petty and I was on the verge of texting for a clue....

I just can't get over his smug face coming and showing me where it was. It will be somewhere obvious I know it.

AIBU to ask for any suggestions? Please help - I need a win today

We have those magnets and now I've found a tiny little hiding spot for something!

JFDIYOLO · 06/07/2023 12:39

You left it where you would expect to find it in your own home.

You're running about like a blue arsed fly, as my granny used to say. He's playing you.

Do not play his stupid game.

Don't engage.

Tell the CF to stop being a CF and put it back.

Gees there’s some miserable people on here. It’s just light hearted fun. Hide it in the smoke alarm.

I haven't read the full thread, but any cabin pressure fans ever began a similar game with 'the lemon is in play'?

in the kettle

JFDIYOLO · 06/07/2023 12:43

I completely misread the tone of voice, having had a boyfriend who would do something like that to teach me some lesson or other!

You're still here? Telling strangers your movements on a thread you called utterly boring? Oh dear.

Oblomov23 · 06/07/2023 12:51

This would've driven me nutty.

Nclktnntt · 06/07/2023 12:56

Saw you've found it ! That was a good hiding spot 😂

Its scary how many people on MN jump straight to abusive/controlling/manipulating behaviour esp when it's the man, when something is so obviously just a fun-loving couple having FUN 🥰

Right he's on his way for lunch, so hidden ring and put magnet lock back where it was.

So ring is on top of hob plug, teeny diamond side in. Thanks again guys was fun.

Is he coming home for lunch? You said DC weren’t there, maybe have done lunchtime sex?

That would set the miseries on this thread into a total spin!

😃

Glad you won @SniggleSnarf! Victory!

I wouldn't be at home to this - at all.
Bye.

I wouldn't even waste my time on this.

Just crack on with your day?

Exactly. He sounds like a dickhead

So many women come on here asking for help with genuine problems that are awful to read and this?? Really there was no need. I apologise for calling her a twat but not for the rest

Are you saying that you're disappointed because it's not a juicy LTB type of thread? Although some people are determined to make it one.

Blinkblank · 06/07/2023 13:24

Hmmm 🤔 I don’t think he sounds like a dick head!

Mammajay · 06/07/2023 13:24

Cutlery drawer? Dishwasher cutlery basket? Mug hook or any kitchen hook

Nothing in corner cupboard.

No to light fittings.

No step ladder or step as sprogs are climbers. I am using a BJ stool to teeter about on. He's going to be mortified when he realises the amount I've looked. I'm normally great at this game.

Anyone else wondering why there's a blow job stool in the kitchen?

JulieHoney · 06/07/2023 13:26

Put it in the sugar bowl
