I woke up at 6, laundry,made breakfast , packed lunches, got 2 kids ready, drop them off to school, back home at 9
H wakes up at 9, asks me to iron his shirt. I did. He started shouting saying I'm useless, can't iron a shirt, name calling. I said you can iron it yourself next time, throws his hairbrush at me. Lot more shouting, says I sleep all day. Storms out.

What would you do if you were me?

Tell him to go fuck himself.

MrsST · 18/09/2018 14:12

Leave the bastard

MrsST · 18/09/2018 14:12

In that order

PaintingOwls · 18/09/2018 14:14

Great advice above, he's so disrespectful

Drycleanonly7 · 18/09/2018 14:14

If I were you I would talk to him when you both have time and tell him everything you did this morning before he woke up. Ask him if he would do the same tomorrow. Tell him that you will not tolerate agression and violence (hairbrush thrown). You are not useless. You do not deserve name calling. Obviously I don't know you or him neither do I now how regularly this type of thing happens. He doesn't sound very kind or caring does he. Do not iron for him. Refuse. He is a grown up. He does his own ironing.

I'd leave if someone threw something at me in anger.

Parky04 · 18/09/2018 14:17

Would tell him to fuck off and I want a divorce.

Bananalanacake · 18/09/2018 14:19

Why did he say you can't iron a shirt when obviously you had? What a stupid twat. How long has he been like this.

showmeahero · 18/09/2018 14:27

LEAVE HIM.
Eeerrrgggh what a disgusting excuse for a Man, you are a Super Mama OP and deserve so much more ThanksThanks

GreenFingersWouldBeHandy · 18/09/2018 14:28

I'd have thrown the iron at him.

Is he like this every day? Why is he not working? Are you happy?

usernamechange000 · 18/09/2018 14:29

Not the first incident. Has kicked and and stomped on my foot before. Pinched my arm.
Talking hasn't helped, I get all the blame some how.

Should've left the iron on his shirt if you're so useless at it

pumpastrotter · 18/09/2018 14:32

And that's physical abuse^^

Thebluedog · 18/09/2018 14:32

How is your relationship normally? If it’s a orbs off and totally out of character I’d sit down and talk to him... explain all you have in your OP and then tell him in no uncertain terms that his behaviour this morning is out of order. I’d also be asking if he was ok and if he was worrying about anything etc.

If this sort of thing happens regularly I’d be packing not only his shirts, but the rest of his stuff and telling him he can iron, wash and bugger off

heatherblue · 18/09/2018 14:33

"Has kicked and and stomped on my foot before. "

Why are you still with him after that?

I don't know. I'm stuck. Afraid to lose everything. Ashamed to accept this is my life behind the closed doors.

You will have to leave him eventually because men who do this don't get better, they get worse. If I would you I would start by seeing a solicitor, find out exactly where you stand.

Aprilshowersnowastorm · 18/09/2018 16:09

Losing material things is tough but better than losing your life.
I left with bags of clothes and started over alone with dc.

Tobl20 · 18/09/2018 16:55

Do you have children? If so Would he stop you seeing them if you left him?

Aprilshowersnowastorm · 18/09/2018 18:57

Please don't leave your dc.
For too many reasons to mention, just don't.
