Husband leaves me a list of duties

[JanineCody]

My husband of 18 years bought a little whiteboard a few weeks ago which goes on the fridge so you can write reminders for groceries etc on it but over the past week or so he's been leaving me a list of "duties" on it.

-(My name) "Pick up my suit from the dry cleaners."

-(My name) "Go to Supermarket and get those biscuits I like."

-(My name) " Iron my blue shirt for tomorrow."

-(My name) "Take chicken out of freezer to defrost."

AIBU for thinking I am not his slave?

does he work full time are you do not? The answer does change my answer. I leave my dh a list some mornings as he’s retired and I am not - things like go to supermarket for x,y and z (he’s no cook), fetch my prescription (pharmacy involves a 15 minute walk and at least that in queuing, I haven’t time) or can you nip in x and make a reservation. He does all the laundry without being asked but if I need something specific as I’ve got a work thing i add that to the list. Always ends xxx

It depends on whether you both get to do it, eg if one of you is off work that day and knows the other is available to pick something up, that's fine.
If you both work exactly the same hours/same house duties, and his job is closer to wherever the thing is he wants picked up, it's cheeky.
Surprises me you'd use a whiteboard rather than an app, but whatever works (though your post suggests this doesn't!)

Yeah mine makes me wear a fucking red cape with a hood, twat 😂
I just ignore him.

I can't believe people think "go to supermarket and get those biscuits I like"
and "iron my blue shirt for tomorrow" would be acceptable if she stays at home. Come on to fuck people. That's not an acceptable way for her husband to ask her to do anything. And by ask it's very clear he's ordering her.

Back story; what he is like in general? Is he paying all bills and all your family expenses? Is he in the habit of trying to mentor you in other areas of your life?

What would Janine Cody do to a man who dared to order her around like that? 😂Be more Smurf!

"Dear husband, fuck off I am not your skivvy."

lol

completely ignore that.

I find it very hard to believe that this would be happening in your house for a "few weeks" and you would not have commented on it to your husband.

0/10

(His name) “fuck off”

seriously though this can’t actually be real

Bloody hell he'd only do this once in my house!!

Great minds think alike.

@JanineCody Use permanent markers and draw lots of little floppy ones.

(his name) GO FUCK YOURSELF

I would either rub my name of and put his instead or i would put
(his name) STOP BEING A DICKHEAD. Do your own jobs I am not ironing your shirt.
Even if like me you’re actually home much much more with less responsibilities he should not be leaving you jobs to do. Twat

There's no context to this at all and the OP hasn't been back.

I’d stuff his white board up his arse. In the words of Nan, what a fucking Liberty!

There's an old joke about a scotsman and englishman and an Irish man each getting married and not being happy with their wives housework. Englishman spoke sternly to his wife and saw a difference right away. Scotsman tried the same and first day didn't see much difference but reiterated it and by the next day things really improved. The Irishman spoke to his wife, saw nothing the first day, nor the second day, by the third day the swelling had subsided and he could see a little out of one eye but he'd definitely learnt his lesson.

As an Irish woman I feel I can tell that joke but also, good luck leaving me a list fo chores for a grown adult. He can wipe his own a**e. How do you get 18 yrs on and have him think this would suddenly fly?

Wipe the thing clean, draw something obscene on it and go for a spa day.

Just rub your name out and put his. I don't mind/enjoy doing things for the people I love but the moment it becomes an instruction and he doesn't even ask you in person, there's not a chance I would be doing a single one of those tasks out of principle.

Depends how old is he, is he losing his memory or worried he is so thats why hes writting stuff down

And let's face it, he could have taken the chicken out in the time it took him to write that. Lazy fucker.
And - and it's a big 'and' - does he not know to use the word 'please'? Lazy rude fucker!

My DH would know better than to speak or write to me like this because this is exactly the reaction he would get. He'd also be on his own in the spare room having to collect his own fucking dry cleaning & all other PA tasks for a very long time.

Also he would be deafened by the sound of my vagina slamming shut.

edited for spelling

Erase his 'directives' and write 'You have a wife, not a servant, you rude fuck.'

Then you write -His Name- then "Go take a FLYING FK !! "

These are commands not requests. That is what would annoy me. I wouldn't do it.

Fucking hell.
