Nothing I do is enough

[WaterMelonSugar9]

Been with my husband of 3 year is just so hard to please.
lovely bloke, took me on and my daughter and now we have a son of our own.
However, he’s so negative and hard to please.
Everything I do, buy, choose, cook, he dislikes or has something to say.
Example: making a chicken dish tonight, 2 chicken thigh each, straight away 2 isn’t enough, he wants a smaller part of the chicken, he needs to know exactly what’s in the sauce, the sweet potato fries look soggy in the fryer….
Example 2: brought snacks for him, doesn’t like the filling of one cake, the cookies aren’t the correct brand, the why buy chocolate when he doesn’t like it (me and my daughter do).
It’s constant. Moans about car parking, moans about the way the fridge is filled, the way the bath is run, too hot or too cold.
It’s painful!
Any advise!

What does he say when you ask him what’s wrong/is everything okay with him (not with your cooking or the way you stock the fridge, or whatever)?

Does he get defensive? Flounce off in a mood? Turn it round to make it sound like you’re nagging him? Look bemused?

He's 'making' you incompetent. I had one too. So good he's gone.

This makes me glad I'm single :(

Being alone is better than being with someone who makes you feel alone.

Not saying this is domestic abuse but constant criticism can be a sign..

@coodawoodashooda - absolutely. My ex was "lovely", until I realised he really wasn't. I left him 2 years ago, and me and my kids now have a home full of laughter and love. It's made a HUGE difference

Doesn't it just make you glad not to be in a crap relationship?

This is no relationship. Plenty others out there that would 'take you on'. If your daughter came to you with this in years to come what would you advise?

This is truly horrible

you need to get a life for yourself and your kids

why would you pour his bath ?????????

Nicely, why did you marry him? What’s lovely about him?

Stop doing absolutely everything for him.
He can’t complain about anything then.

Hi@WaterMelonSugar9

Get him to take turns cooking 🍳 much more often,

As he obviously thinks he is like Gordon Ramsey answer to whichever place in u.k you are currently at,

How 🤔 is his culinary skills Op?

Just curious,

Is he shit 🔥 really good in the kitchen then?

What struck me just reading your Op Thread,
Is the passage he took me and my daughter on,
You sound as if you are eternal grateful that even (thought) Consirder taking you and child on at all,
As if he was doing a massive favour or something to take you both on as a single parent,
You Need to look at improving your self esteem,
Pretty sharpish,
His twattish behaviour will start to really drag you down the drip drip effect like slooow mental torture, 😤

He. Is irrating at fxck isn't he, and I am not even involved in a relationship with him.
Easy to be judgemental on sidelines like he does often,

It's not allways easy coming up with fresh food ideas week in week out trying to satisfying everyone.
Especially when you have a right know all Prick like this, as this one,

I bet he is more of Prick , than his wedding tackle L.o.l 🙄 🤣 really is,
I know the type , the more of Prick they are, the more it's cause they feel they have over compensate cause the size of Dick makes them feel insecure...
