To be annoyed with DH in a cafe

[Nyx]

He thinks I'm unreasonable, I think he is!

This has happened yesterday and today. We go to a cafe, dd(3.11) in tow. I'm getting sorted with a table, dd wants to sit somewhere different, we're getting coats off etc. Meanwhile, DH is up at the counter asking for a cappucino and a cake - before I've had a chance to decide what I want! I think he's far too impatient, he thinks he's just hungry and why should he wait for me!

I should add that if he's not starving hungry then he does wait until we've all chosen before ordering.

AIBU? It's not life threatening, I know...!

Hmm. Your DH is cleary BVU.

I would be pissed if DH did that - at the end of the day mine is 29 and if he cannot wait 3 minutes that's a bit poor.
And why do you have to sort the kids out anyway? If he helped you, you would all be ready order in half the time, together.

Would also approach him at the counter and say 'Are you alright Jack?' - forgot to say that.

That´s really rude!
Then what happens-he sits at the table whilst you and daughter go to choose?

We go up together & choose, I sit with the children-husband brings it all over.

Thank you all. And I'd also heard of 'I'm alright Jack' but didn't have a clue it was a naval term so there you go - you learn something new every day!

DH has been told about your reactions and has apologised, he said in his defence that he really was very hungry. I advised it's no excuse and he's not to do it again!

Yanbu.
He is a selfish cake monster. Doesnt matter how hungry you are, you get yourself sorted, you order when everybody knows what they are having.

And if you are hungry, you are a greedy sod for opting for CAKE. You get a sandwich, some water, and THEN you go get cake and cappuccino. snort. tis the law.

In fact, you never eat CAKE before the kids have eaten whatever THEY are having.

YANBU.

But next time, I would take coffee and cake from him and then ask him to get dd a juice to go with her cake, and your have cake to go with my coffee when he get his .

Or I might to hungry to wait for to get home him, for dinner so you & DD have already eaten, so have to sort himself out.

love that strategy lizziemum!
dds cake, your coffee, he goes up to order for himself and you again. gotta love it.

Hey - I think that's it lizziemum - I will have to do that if he is ever that impatient again

I mean, lizziemun - sorry

Just say "look dd what lovely cake daddy brought you, Say thank you to daddy", while handing her the plate. He wont be able to say "oh actually it is my cake".
