Who's OH is currently sulking + why?

Just wanting some company in the my OH is sulking at me corner.

Mine has been sulking for 4hrs. Because I told him there is no way he is attempting DIY again this weekend. For the last two weekends he has had a toddler-man meltdowns over DIY. He is normally very capable but he is currently depressed (again). In this mind set, he has no patience or logic + can't be careful. He starts the DIY all gungho then hits a tiny set back; its the end of the world. He gets super frustrated, angry + sulks for hours. Then repeats the same cycle. His angry manhandling meant he broke a part and a simple job got harder. I ordered a replacement part + got my Dad over mid-week to sort it out. When he proposed more DIY this weekend, despite missing instructions, I put my foot down and said no more. FFS! Toddler-men!

Sort of similar here.... I've asked my husband of a million years to stop doing things. He used to be okay at some diy but now is too old and impatient and everything he does needs sorting out by somebody else plus the clearing up is getting me down. Really don't want any more bodge ups!

Mine is sulking because I wanted to take him out for Sunday lunch and then when he said he had something else that he needs to do I said I would cancel it and book it for a different weekend. Can't win.

Oh yes I'm up for this 😂. My DH has a cold ( man flu ) 🤢 and is moaning like hell and driving me insane. He's in a piss because I'm using anti bac spray on him like sheep dip and there is no way on earth I am catching his cold as I have just got over a popped disc in my back and it's the first time I've felt great in weeks .
