My husband has the heating on

[SarahYou]

We're in a small flat in the UK and it's boiling. He's washed some clothes and decided to put the heating on to dry them over the radiators.

"We" tried drying them over a drying rack next to an open window and he decided that they smelled bad after 30 mins so washed them again.

Now every radiator in the flat is blasting out heat and I've got a headache. He won't turn them off.

Is this normal?? Im so pissed off!

Good question. What's the going rate on a drunk hitting his wife these days?

I agree about tumbling can ruin clothes however there's no need for heating to be on to dry clothes, normally and certainly not in this heat 🥵🥵🥵 hope he's paying the electric bill!! 🤑

That’s not a good husband. You have a really low bar.

I was about to write something about the laundry I did yesterday being dry already, but then I read your last update as it doesn't seem important anymore. The laundry is not what you should be concerned about here.

Go read that back slowly to yourself.

Why do you say that?

What a dick head. I hope he’s footing the full bill.

Yeh exactly. Talk about contradiction!

I'd have an emotional meltdown swiftly followed by a physical one in that level of heat and madness!

He's an idiot

For once. please show him this thread

We’re not all in the south.

That's not how a good husband behaves.

Have you posted about him before, is he the man who is from a hotter country?

As you've already been told many times, he is ridiculous

Bloody hell.
It's 40 C in my kitchen (house).
Tried to do some work outside, but gave up.
Your husband has a screw loose.

What?

id be gone the first time someone touched me. He wouldn’t get a chance second time regardless of how drunk he was!

have yoh ever hit someone when you’re drunk? How many of us hit our partners when we’re drunk

its no excuse.

Do not show a violent man that you're publicly discussing him fgs.

Is he pissed now?

I very strongly recommend that you stay in an airconditioned hotel tonight and check back tomorrow afternoon/evening to see whether he's still alive - as drunk, putting the heating on in this weather and being a violent prick is a recipe for killing himself from heatstroke.

You do need to leave it until tomorrow because he might become violent again. And it's going to be far too hot for you to return tonight.

I'm just going to echo what pp have said:
He is not a good husband.

How the actual fuck is he a good husband? He’s a maniac and an abuser it seems.

This, 💯

It takes alot for me to feel the heat but even I am finding it warm. You must be feeling quite unwell with it.

I'd go out. Find somewhere lovely for dinner and go a friend's or an air conditioned hotel for the night.

This is mental.

Oh Good Lord, Scotland is very much part of the UK actually 🙄

The washer dryer does not ruin clothes.
He's using it wrongly. However, as pp have said, the laundry really isn't the problem.
He is.

I don't really know what to say, we have been together a long time.

He likes things his own way and when he has a few too many drinks it gets worse and sometimes I feel like I should just be quiet.

I feel stupid typing this out now.

Laundry isn't the real issue here.

But if it was, why has nobody mentioned the 'L' word? Launderette. The ones near me are fantastic. Super-clean, huge dryers,. In 20 -30 mins everything is dry, foldable and doesn't smell, since there's so much space for it to tumble about in.

Clothes are less creased and not 'ruined' or shrunken, I think because I keep more of an eye on them when I'm paying for every 5 mins. In winter I dry 2 or 3 x big 8kg loads at once for around £7 (including towels).

Miles better than a poky washer/dryer or most domestic tumble dryers.
