‘Go lose some weight’ I’m 3kg up on pre baby weight at 10 weeks PP. went on a specific weight gain diet in order to avoid iugr this time. Worked too well apparently
‘You’ve got disgusting saggy tits’ I’m breastfeeding and I’ve always hated my boobs
‘You’ve peaked at a mid 30k job, you’ll never get aboie that, you’re not capable’
And some derogatory comment about my education

Oh to be young and in love

Tell him to sling his hook, OP.

What a bastard.

Wnikat · 12/02/2022 20:19

Has he always been this horrible or is it only now that you’re vulnerable after recently giving birth to his child?

Haggisfish3 · 12/02/2022 20:19

Fuck that shit. He wouldn’t be my dh anymore!

SiobhanSharpe · 12/02/2022 20:20

So I presume he's perfect. No? Just a tosser then.

ButterflyBitch · 12/02/2022 20:20

Fuck that for a game of soldiers op. Point out everything you dislike about him in as rude a way as possible.

Easterbunnyiswindowshopping · 12/02/2022 20:20

Well there is a very easy way to rid yourself of a load of weight.
I once lost 20 St overnight!

ew1990 · 12/02/2022 20:20

You could lose however many stone by leaving this tosser op.

Hugs to you - it's so hard after having a baby and Bf too, feeling like your bodies not your own 🥰🥰

PrincessPaws · 12/02/2022 20:21

Why the hell are you with this Prince among men? Have my first ever LTB, no one should be spoken to like that and certainly not in one day

ILoveMyMonkey · 12/02/2022 20:21

Oh to be young and in love
You need to raise your standards - you are worth so much more. Your husband is a disrespectful twat and it really has nothing to do with being young or in love.

SunshineCake1 · 12/02/2022 20:21

Please give him a very firm and final warning then if he does it again leave.

My friend is going through her husband saying she is fat as well as more serious abuse and it is horrible to hear it.

duvetdayforeveryone · 12/02/2022 20:22

Is he always like this?

Cookingutensil · 12/02/2022 20:22

God, how disgusting. I hope you're making plans to leave op. You and your baby need to be free of this pig.

Sleeplessem · 12/02/2022 20:22

He’s gotten worse and worse as time goes on, lashes out so easily 0-100 in the blink of an eye. Acid tongue.

I did point out to him that only one of us has a bmi in the ‘normal range’, has just given birth and is breastfeeding and it ain’t him that’s when the saggy tits comments came up

HerRoyalHappiness · 12/02/2022 20:23

LTB. Seriously. Leave. He's not worth your time and energy.

Mwnci123 · 12/02/2022 20:23

LTB

I was being sarcy with the oh to be young and in love… as whilst I’m still ‘young’ those comments ain’t love

LTB What a vile excuse for a human being.

AgathaX · 12/02/2022 20:24

What a dickhead. Is he like this regularly?

Do you want to be with him?

Chuchali · 12/02/2022 20:25

At least he's let you know what kind of person he is when your baby is 10 weeks old, you can leave early so they don't need to grow up seeing their dad talk to their mum like that

Penhaligon · 12/02/2022 20:25

He really doesn't like, love or respect you does he?
You don't have to live like this...

NuffSaidSam · 12/02/2022 20:25

Why is he still your husband?

Ilovepotato · 12/02/2022 20:26

Are you planning to leave him??

Tomselleckhaskindeyes · 12/02/2022 20:27

If my husband said all this to me i would be wearing his testicles we earrings!

Mouthfulofquiz · 12/02/2022 20:28

Things my husband said to me today:
‘You look nice!’
‘I can’t wait to go to the rugby with you this afternoon’
‘What can I cook us all for dinner tonight?’

You don’t have to be married to an arsehole. It’s not normal to speak to your spouse like this.

Sleeplessem · 12/02/2022 20:29

Best part is, I can’t leave for at least a decade. This is my life and will be til I’m 40.

Long story less long but serious concerns of his family being around my children (have posted about it before not sure how to link threads or I would) and if we divorce I can’t prevent his parents, specifically his mother from watching the children, although they are all bad, I know he’d leave his mother to watch them for extended periods and she basically neglected our eldest when she used to watch her when we wfh, ive also been told that she used to hit other kids in her care (cousins). A solicitor told me as our custody would likely be 50/50 I can’t prevent who our kids see in his time. And trust me the risk is too great.

It’s Better for me to be unhappy than them being neglected or worse
