To want DH to stop sending me photos of things that displease him?

[Notasaruleno]

So - interests of fairness he is a decent man generally but he has this one habit that really puts my nose out of joint.

Say I have done something minor but I appreciate annoying he sends me a photo on WhatsApp, like a top left off a bottle or if the cat has killed a mouse (he hates cats) or similar. He just sends a photo, no accompanying message. I absolutely hate it, I think it’s really passive aggressive and I never know how or if to respond.

AIBU if I tell him to stop it?

😂😂😂Yes!!! But add—It’s not working….🙄
Or- ‘ Darling you really need to work on your foreplay.’
He needs to watch a few Dr Phil’s chats on sex starting with emptying the dishwasher!

I'd probably reply "that's nice dear".

Decent man or not, he's being a total arse. I'd be sending a picture of a locksmith if it continues.

😂😂😂😂

I would download this image on my phone and answer each of his PA messages with it.

Deliberately miss the point. Picture of cat and mouse 'oh isn't he clever'. Picture of lid off 'I think we have some more in the cupboard'. Then he may use words like a grown up.

I like this idea. Or endless cat pictures. Cst memes, angry cats. You could have a lot of PA fun back.

I’d literally reply with a random picture of whatever I was closest to at the time.
the table, the sky, a cup, pen on the table etc

Loving this thread.

another response - deliberately misinterpret every pic.
dead mouse - arrive home with some cat food - Oh I thought you were telling me that cat was hungry
lid off the bottle - arrive home with new bottle of what ever it was - Oh I though the message meant we needed more oil.

etc

This thread has been very funny.
OP you have a ready supply of suitable responses to his nonsense. Use them all.

😂 or 😹. Wind him up.

He was possibly gaslighted as a kid so is sending you the evidence. Reply with a “sorry” gif and put it right if you can.

The other advice you have been given will only antagonise a potentially already antagonised being.

Leave the photo message unread. He'll soon get fed up of sending

Where has the OP gone?🔍🧐😆

I imagine she has a new FT job sending cat memes to her husband, or photos of her shoe.

Is 'Meme Lord' an actual paid position now?!

😂Brilliant! All these responses have made me laugh!

Wowser what a twonk - I would have def told him to not do that again it is aggressive.

@BellaTheDarkOverlord
Hahahaha this is gold! 😂👏🏼

Looks like OP’s DH found this thread.

Just do it back to him! If he's going to be that petty, then 2 can play at that game! Just give an innocent explanation if he picks you up on it! Like: "I know you like to bring these to my attention, therefore, I thought you'd be grateful if I did the same" or "communicating is two ways"...

BRILLIANT!!! 🤣😂🤣

This. Very odd behaviour.

Or just tell him he is being weird and to communicate like a proper grown up.

That’s a great idea! Or one of his dick if can get one while he’s asleep 😂

Oh no I couldn’t put with this! Little pictorial reminders of all the ways you are apparently failing at life? ie forgetting to screw a lid on a bottle, the death of a mouse being your fault because you like cats etc? It’s passive aggressive, verging on bullying behaviour. My immediate temptation would be to send back pictures of all the things you do for him. If my OH did this I would send him a picture of his skid marks on the toilet before and after I, yes I, cleaned them for the eleventy millionth time this week. Or of the massive pot of dinner I cooked at the weekend. But I’m petty that way. Seriously. Tell him to stop, it’s awful.
