Walked to the bus stop with dh this morning going to work and he nipped to the shop while i waited at the stop. I hadnt had time for breakfast so asked dh to grab me something from the shop. I was expecting a cereal bar or some fruit, but no I got a chicken and bacon sandwich.....He thinks IABU for telling him there was no way i could eat that for breakfast. Are all men this strange.....

I'd love something like that for breakfast - YABU!

I reckon he saw the bacon, and bacon = breakfast.

I'd rather have a sandwich than a cereal bar, as they are more filling.

Sounds fine to me!

YANBU You are married, he should know what kind of thing you like to eat for breakfast.

Sounds like what my DH would have come back with, and TBH I would have eaten it lol (I am pg though so not a lot I wont eat ATM)

I think if you wanted a cereal bar or something you should have told him that.

I would have thought that was odd a while back...not now. I tend to have a few biccies with my morning tea, then take ds to school and buy a chicken and sweetcorn sarnie in tescos on the way home. Delish!

YABU. You Dh bought you a sandwhich which is much more substantial then a cereal bar or fruit.
I wpuld have loved that for breakfast.

Sorry littlecheese but I think people are being unreasonable to post on here ,

I'm with Mrs T and Pan !

YABU if you do not have a known specific dislike of any of the ingredients.

I am specific with my DH as his idea of a breakfast snack would probably be some kind of large pie

jazz hand dh sounds similar to yours i should have expected it really once on a long journey he went into the services for some snacks and came back with pies, bearing in mind we were having lunch with friends an hour and half later

Littlecheese - your DH bought a sandwich that he would like. Its what blokes do.

I would suggest you drop heavy hints about what you would like for your birthday though - otherwise you will get a power drill and a nail gun.

littlecheese

Count yourself lucky he didn't come back laden with a KFC party bucket for your breakfast snack!

Geetar · 06/03/2009 14:19

I would be pleased with that. Not odd at all IMO.

DrTrillianAstra · 06/03/2009 14:25

I am fussy about food - not that there are lots of things I won't eat but that when I want something to eat I usually want a specific type of thing to eat, not just 'food'. So I would have been more specific in asking for 'something for breakfast'.
