Husband acting out of character

28 replies

My husband has been acting quite out of character in the past week. I asked him to do something yesterday and he actually did it today. Normally it would take him weeks. He decided he was having salad for dinner tonight, he usually hates salad. I need something from the shop after dinner and he offered to go, instead of me having to ask.

AIBU to think there is something I don't know? Or maybe he's just made a New Year's resolution I don't know about? Not sure what to think.

He might need to keep busy in the absence of cigarettes. How's he doing with that?

Early days. He is definitely smoking less.

Fun fact: when you cook chicken in a plastic bag like this, bits of the bag end up in the meat. Your man may be being less useless, but he is giving you more microplastics in your diet. See for yourself: Oven bag - Wikipedia
