to totally refuse to ask my sulky DH what the matters is?

26 replies

OrmIrian · 05/10/2008 20:22

I know what the matter is.
He didn't get a sh*g this morning because our DCs were up and about and I couldn't face a nervous stop-start session. He is cross. (West Ham lost but I refuse to accept responsibility for that )

I don't sulk. If I have something to say, I say it. I hate sulking. Normally by now I'd have given in and apologised, or we'd had a row. Don't feel like doing the first (because he's acting like a spoilt brat) and I can't face the second.

He is in a vile mood with everyone. And has spoiled the day. He is an arse. And I don't want to make him feel better about his arsiness. Every time the DCs have rowed, shouted, done anything at all, I've had to jump in to sort it out before he blows his top.

So actually I don't care if I am BU. I am cross. I want him to apologise for being a twat. Anyone want a husband? Slightly used and a bit worn but usually fairly reliable?

Maybe give him a kiss and tell him you love him

Or is that terribly old fashioned ...

He is now talking to me in grunts

Wish he'd go back to the pub.

Ask him what the problem is then when he starts whinging about it all you get the opportunity to point out that he is acting like a spoilt brat.

Might be worth pointing out that sulking isn't a huge turn-on so if he is hoping for some action he'd better get over it quickly.

His football team lost so he is sulkying and making everyone else suffer ? YANBU

Oh, God, I hate sulkers.

aGalChangedHerName · 05/10/2008 20:41

I bloody wouldn't be telling him you love him. Spolied brat!!

Have a bath and go to bed then you won't have to see him sulking.

scorpio1 · 05/10/2008 20:41

YANBU

ignore him. Go and have a bath or something. When DH is like this i ask if he has got over himself yet.

Bath good idea. After Tess.

Have a glass of wine. That solves most problems.

And HIBU not you!

SoMuchToBits · 05/10/2008 20:45

Oh, and just tell him you are a dragon, and rules are different for dragons!

knockedgymnast · 05/10/2008 21:13

I love Westham, so I can totally understand him

Moomin · 05/10/2008 21:15

tell him to have a wank with your blessing. see if that shifts the moodiness

akhems · 05/10/2008 21:17

mine's sulking too... I did give in and ask him but he just grunted and said 'nothing'

Ah moomin, such a way with words

knockedgymnast, you have my deepest sympathies then. It seems as if the misery has outweighed the joy this season

Thanks for all your advice. I continued to ignore the sulk, watched Tess, had a bath, and then he came to bed and we finally got round to it . So he's happy now. He's still an arse mind you......

Hmm
lottiejenkins · 06/10/2008 08:11

He sounds more petulant than my 12 year old........I dont give in to him when he wants something...........

MaryBS · 06/10/2008 08:13

Tell him to support a decent team then

Does he do this regularly? Why are men such children on occasions? You have my sympathy. My DH sulks, but not generally over the football (he is a huge Liverpool fan)

CharleeInChains · 06/10/2008 08:24

DOn't even speak to me about men this morning.

OrmIrian · 06/10/2008 08:24

Actually I know I was a bit pathetic. I have a weak point - when I stop being angry and start feeling guilty .

Mind you the end of the sulking is wonderful.

OP posts:
lottiejenkins · 06/10/2008 08:34

Too much information lol.........

LazyLinePainterJane · 06/10/2008 09:10

I can't believe you had sex with him! So not only now did he get to sulk until he got what he wanted, his ridiculous childish behaviour was validated!

I know you enjoyed the sex and all but was it really worth it?
