To want to stab DP in the eye?

Had the most sickening weekend of him moaning how he never gets any 'me' time (even more nauseating coming from a man) - this because
I suggested he change baby's nappy on sunday morning
While playing with the kids and keeping them away from him we interrupted Wimbledon
he then went to pub to watch AFOREMENTIONED wimbledon and we were sorry when he came back because he ruined all the fun.
Since this weekend I have been constantly made to feel that I am the selfish shit and not the victorian housewife I am supposed to be.
Rant etc.

YANBU. No more advice than that, but you're not.

CountessDracula · 08/07/2008 22:42

stabbing in the eye sounds like a bit of a let-off to me

He sounds like a selfish wanker

TillyScoutsmum · 08/07/2008 22:42

YANBU

He sounds like a selfish arse

CountessDracula · 08/07/2008 22:42

Do you say something?
Or do you let him behave like this?

PeaMcLean · 08/07/2008 22:42

Is it just wimbledon or generally?

YANBU by the way.

Flum · 08/07/2008 22:42

ouch in the eye! he sounds like a bit of a pain. what about a voodoo doll. Less likely to get locked up for that.

I am with CD on this. Why do you put up with it? You're enabling his bad behaviour. Does he feel that because he works (and presuming from your post that you do not) he has to do NO housework or childcare EVER?

I've got a DH just like that.
When he really pisses me off I clean the sink with his toothbrush. It gets the taps really sparkley. I feel better instantly. And even more so in the morning when I watch him brush his teeth.

Kelix · 08/07/2008 23:08

wow Bowddee your a ban un lol

YANBU BTW! Make sure you do it with a rusty nail and dont get caught

LuckySalem · 08/07/2008 23:11

BW - YANBU - My Dp does this.... I never have any time to myself...

Yeh cos I have all the time in the world while dealing with a clingy DD, cleaning the house that you make a mess etc.

Toothbrush idea sounds good - I'd do it if I knew DP brushed his teeth enough!!

snowboo · 08/07/2008 23:12

YANBU!!!!
I have a moaner too. (But he is behaving atm so shhhh)

What eye are we talking about?
A rusty blunt nail should do the trick

moondog · 08/07/2008 23:13

God, what an arse.
(Anyone of any sex who bleats the phrase 'me time' should be mowed down with an AK47 in any case.)

Sympathies to you (and ever-renewing joy at my own single status).

bluewolf · 08/07/2008 23:15

Grr Thank you - I feel absolutely justified in the stabbing that I'm about ..um stab. He's just rolled in, I'm avoiding any arguements because all we do most of the time is shout at each other and its actually quite comforting to type - like morse code SOS.
It's not just wimbledon its any thing - like Tape Books about the Plague.
I'm not pathetic - it's just I am so tired of fighting that I'm shutting up (for now. And sharpening an icicle (they'll never catch me)
