How can I forgive my husband who just said to me during an argument, I hope you get corona virus.

What a complete childish idiot. He wouldn’t be my husband saying such idiotic childish things

Waffles80 · 22/03/2020 18:08

What a wanker.

Any extenuating circumstances? If not, I’d say your relationship has run it’s course. No way would I put up with that level of pettiness.

incognitomum · 22/03/2020 18:08

Shock That's a terrible thing to say!

Nope couldn't forgive that.

Batshittery · 22/03/2020 18:08

Context is everything

Casino218 · 22/03/2020 18:08

Marriages get strained under these circumstances. I wouldn't put too much weight on it.

LadyTiredWinterBottom2 · 22/03/2020 18:09

He's a little charmer, isn't he?

Loralola · 22/03/2020 18:10

So childish! Pathetic really

VettiyaIruken · 22/03/2020 18:10

What a foul thing to say.

Lllot5 · 22/03/2020 18:10

I would have said well if I get so will you. Twat

PurpleDaisies · 22/03/2020 18:11

Horrible thing to say.

How did it come about?

lolaflores · 22/03/2020 18:11

Even if u get it, hell still be a cunt and have that comment on his card for life. Hope he is proud of himself

JenNtonic · 22/03/2020 18:11

Go up to him RIGHT NOW and lick his face ! 👅

pocketem · 22/03/2020 18:12

Are you going to drop feed us the context, OP?

Plenty of couples will be getting tetchy with each other and saying things they don't really mean. Isolation and forced time together is going to be tough on relationships. We are only just getting started. We will all have to learn to be less sensitive than normal. If you hold grudges you won't get through the next 12 weeks

assaggyastwohotbollocks · 22/03/2020 18:13

He's an arse.

Not that it matters but what lead to that shitty comment? Does he normally say whatever he can to hurt during arguments? It was definitely a low blow.

Changedname78 · 22/03/2020 18:17

Sorry don’t mean to drip feed it was just stupid bickering and he came out with that. Actually don’t think I can forgive it tbh, why would you wish your wife catches a virus that is killing people

Maybe a retort might be something like

"Being married to you, so do i"

pocketem · 23/03/2020 08:37

There's going to be many words said in the heat of the moment as couples start bickering. You can't be holding grudges in a situation like this or you'll never make it through the twelve weeks. Time for all of us to develop a tougher skin

Bloodymary · 23/03/2020 08:44

Exactly what Flaxmeadow said.

CuntAmongstThePigeons · 23/03/2020 08:53

I'm sorry I know you're upset, but I actually think that's hilarious. Around the time the brexit referendum took place I overheard a couple arguing and she was saying to her partner "I can't believe you just compared me to brexit." That absolutely finished me off then too.

Presumably you don't think your dp actually does want you to get Corona? It's a silly thing to say but everyone has emotions running high atm and I would try and let it go.

lowlandLucky · 23/03/2020 09:12

It is no different to saying "i hope you get cancer" Think about that op and ask if yourself if you would put up with him saying that to you

TheLinerunner · 23/03/2020 09:19

Were you just about to go to a (for example) unnecessary social meet-up or nail bar and he was anxious and stressed and had asked you not to go?

Or are you a key worker who just wants to do their job?

Context it important.
