To think he shouldn't have eaten my eggs?

[mummytojoseph]

Dh wanted some eggs for dinner and called me out to make them for him, I didn't particularly want to but did.
I got two out for him and the last two were for me which I was going to have tomorrow for breakfast.

I made his eggs and they didn't turn out quite as he wanted so he moaned and thought this entitled him to my eggs.

AIBU to think he should have cooked his own eggs and I shouldn't miss out because he got me to do it and didn't like the result.

Or is he right and as I didn't do his eggs as he liked them I owe him mine?

So much wrong here I don't know where to start.

Why did you cook his eggs?

Are you a long way from any shops or on an extremely tight budget? If he wants the eggs then he can just pop out for more.

Your first sentence sums up the situation nicely.
And if you can’t see anything wrong with it, then no one on here can help you.

Because he thought I'd do them better than he could but they didn't turn out well.

What do you mean they didn't turn out well?

How wrong can some eggs be to be outright rejected?
Of course he's not entitled to your eggs!
CF.

He doesn't need eggs now he's eaten mine.

Well there are a lot of issues in that post but I will address the question asked. No he doesn’t get your eggs. If he doesn’t like his eggs then tough he can make them himself next time.

He’s ungrateful and I wouldn’t cook for him again. He can go to the shop and get more

Are we talking poaching here? Because I'm the poacher in our relationship and dp is the fryer. Neither can do the other very well.

I'd have had a shit egg each if it was me

Ignoring everything else how fucked up were the eggs that they warranted another go?

Uh oh, OP. But also 🍿...

You made the eggs even though you didn't want to, then also gave him yours?
Genuinely, why?!
If DP asked me and I didn't want to, I'd say no and he'd either make them or go hungry. He wouldn't be getting mine either.

He can just buy more eggs before tomorrow morning? Or were they special eggs?

Off he goes to the shop to get some more then. I mean a) you did him a favour by cooking for him b) he’s left you without the eggs you were saving for breakfast. Yanbu.

They are just eggs, ask him to get some tmmr

What went wrong with them?
Why did you make them?
Why did you let him have the last 2 eggs?
Who made the second lot of eggs?
Why can't he go and get some more eggs?

What would have happened if:
A) you'd told him not naff off and cook his own eggs
B) had made the eggs that he didn't want to eat and told him to keep his eggy hands off yours

Why are you saying he called you out to cook them?
Unless your cooking facilities are outside and you were inside, he wasn't calking you out.
To call someone out is to challenge them on an issue they are wrong about.

But he should be cooking his own eggs in future

I assumed she means he called her out to the kitchen to cook them. As in, he was in the kitchen faffing about wanting food, and he called to her in another part of the house to come and cook them

Seriously!? sounds like you've been together since the dark ages and neither of you have grasped the modern concept that you don't have to serve your husband.

Eggs not coming out quite right is one of those everyday, commonplace little disappointments we all have to bear from time to time. The omelette is rubbery or the fried eggs are snotty or the scrambled eggs are bland or the poached eggs are stringy or the soft-boiled eggs are hard-boiled or the hard-boiled eggs won't peel. Accepting that life is disappointment and eating the eggs anyway is a valuable exercise in forbearance and fortitude (and cooking your own sodding eggs if it's that important to you). Getting fresh eggs and trying again is not only the height of selfish gittery if they're the last two and earmarked for your supposedly beloved partner's breakfast, it's cheating at life.

But you need eggs, now that he's eaten yours.

I thought pretty much the same thing!

For starters (and this would have prevented the subsequent hu-ha) he makes his own eggs.
