Husband actually thinks he is punishing me. Ha

[Plopandflop]

Had a row this morning. Normal row that all couples have re our daughter whereas I think he expects to much of her husband thinks she is not pulling her weight bla bla bla.

anyway he has stormed off upstairs in a huff. He is now lead in bed with no phone (left it downstairs) no tv. He will be lead there determined not to come down board out of his mind.

where am stretched out on the sofa with a coffee and a bar of choc with the telly to myself with the sun streaming through the window. Thinking what a prat he can be

DH was doing this and called DD in (I have only just come downstairs). DD was on the phone to her mates so did not hear him. I told her to get off the phone and get in the kitchen but DH kicked off because DD knew what he was doing and should have been ready without me telling her again

I'm confused as to why he got upset (not taking into account his health condition) nor why he said you are "too soft on her". I'm guessing she's, what? 11 years old?

You actively supported your husbands efforts by telling your daughter to get off the phone and get into the kitchen. And HE'S kicked off because YOU backed him up here? I'm so confused by the whole thing.

In any case it's a non-event, life happens. Enjoy your chocolate bar in peace OP.

My husband is the laziest on the planet, all he makes is a mess and quess who has to clear that up! Putting things away after he has used them is our of the question. I tried joining him but it had no effect so I had to give in and carry on
with the clearing and cleaning. We are the same age so there is absolutely no
excuse! I cannot believe it!

Yes - I hear this all the time, he led down instead of laying or laid down. It doesn't make any sense but so many people do it!

I agree with @Likewhatever, make him a cuppa-you were both right really.

I too row with my husband, we both occasionally flounce off in order to get over ourselves. And I too am at home reclining on a chair watching tele.

You really shouldn’t have to justify your being at home to posters, they can be so rude and presumptuous sometimes.

Enjoy your chocolate and the tv.

This is classic mumsnet!

I hope you've had enjoyed your relaxation time and your daughter's match goes well.

Oh and all the lead/laid discussion-have you ever heard of regional accents? I pronounce made, med because of my accent. It happens!

Well how very dare you be at home on a weekday.

I too am at home on the sofa 😁

Yes but you don't spell made med do you?

@BunnyLake i know-how very rude of me!

And shock horror-I have a job!

No but does it matter? No one pulls up the Scots when they type tae instead of to do they? Lots of people type in the accent they speak. I live close to the Black Country-I have received plenty of texts that say how am ya!

I love the Black Country accents (there are variations), we don’t hear them enough.

Nearly all couples row. In my experience the couples who say they don't row go in for massive sulks instead which is far more unhealthy. Better to air everything and move on, no?

Oh this place! OP has a post, that is mostly lighthearted, because her husband is sulking while she's relaxing and not bothered about it and the amount of mean responses she's got!

Why do so many pp's not read the full thread? Endless repeated posts asking why Op and husband aren't at work. Op explained upthread that she has severe epilepsy and dh has just been diagnosed with ms and as a result worlks pt.

Oh dear. MN has clearly had a bulk lot of judgey pants delivered this morning. Then the courier took away the sense of humour pants and the read the thread pants.

OP enjoy the chocolate. You've got a lot going on.

This thread 🤣 it's no one's business why OP is at home. Not everyone works every weekday. There are such things as part time, night shifts, weekend work, etc.

So normally he's a keeper but today you're slagging him off on mumsnet. Why don't you just enjoy the telly instead of coming here to talk shit about your hubby.

Maybe he's just a bit worried about how you're all going to cope in the future with your health issues and his recent diagnosis. He probably wants to make sure your DD does her bit, in an age appropriate way, not as a carer. Hope you make it up once you've enjoyed your chocolate anyway, he really didn't think it through going off in a huff did he lol. Boredom will drive him back down

"Why are you both at home lying down during the day, anyway?"

"Do neither of you work?"

"Are you in the uk? Haven’t you both got something productive to do?"

If you're a newcomer to MN, and you're thinking of asking a question here, just note that these are all responses to a woman who offered a little anecdote about a row with her husband.

Exactly? I'm glad someone else read it the same way she supported him and he kicked off at her?

Some mental replies on here. Enjoy your gloat OP, of course it's normal to row.

This has really tickled me 🤣🤣🤣

I know! These snotty pass agg comments are ridiculous!

Why are they on Mumsnet during the day?
Are they in the UK? Haven't they got something productive to do?
Don't they work?

Twats

I hope you enjoy your chocolate OP

Well that’s just doubly rude. Get your lazy a*se back to work 😁
