DH is in a league of his own and I am not happy with him at all.

For the first time in months, I am going out at midday for lunch with my best mate, we will be having a couple of drinks and catching up and we aren't intending to rush.

I have just mentioned to dh that asda shopping is coming between 3 and 5 just in case I am not back (we have to get there, get a table wait for food and have a leisurely lunch etc) and he went mad saying I had better be back to sort asda out when it comes because there is an england game on and he wants to watch it uninterrupted.

Bearing in mind, we have two dd's, so now I will not be able to enjoy lunch as much as I could because I know if I'm not back he will be shouting and balling at the kids and bad language will be flying, but I still don't see why I have to rush back, upon thinking back I think that this is the FIRST time I have been out for lunch without the kids this year.

I am ranting now lol and repeating things, but I am so bloody angry at the minute, I can't think straight.

sorry.......

i agree let him watch the match

Enid · 03/09/2005 10:23

he is already looking after the kids while you go out to lunch.......

i think hes got a cheek its only a footy game, just to keep the peace is there not anyone who would watch the children for you? or could you change ur plans and go out tonight instead of this afternoon, perhaps have a meal at 6 and then go to the cinema, then he can put the kids to bed etc ............

there has to be some give and take i do think hes being unfair.......after all they are his children too and as much his responsibility as they are yours

He's being an ar$e. How long does it take to sort out the Asda delivery? 10 minutes?

Has nothing to do with me being a sports fan and all to do with being him being selfish.

Enid · 03/09/2005 10:28
