AIBU DH annoyed about the bin

6 replies

AIBU? Husband went to the supermarket this morning and I stayed at home with the kids. While he was out I sorted out 2 loads of laundry and put another on, cleaned up the kitchen and swept the floor and hoovered up the living room and play room. Also cleaned the loos and a few other little jobs as well as looking after the kids. DH walked in and said as he was putting the shopping away - “I’m a bit annoyed that you didn’t sort the bin out” (The bin needed changing and has been quite full for a day or two but we’ve all been mad busy at work so just kept squashing it down a bit more). I feel really annoyed that he spoke to me like this but he thinks I’m over reacting. AIBU?

Why didn’t he sort the bin out rather than tell you to do it?!

Was the bin more of a priority?

I pretty much never sort the bin mind.

Did you point out in the time he took to moan about it he could have done something about it. That would annoy me so much, my husband does similar often and I no longer say nothing i tell him straight that he's found himself a job to do then

You don’t buy a dog and bark yourself.

In response to that I probably would have done the bin, and take his freshly laundered/sorted clothes and stuck them in it. If the bin is priority over laundry to him then let him see you correct your mistake. He won't talk to you like that again.

Then again, I have zero tolerance for being spoken to like a maid and my husband would never.

So he's allowed to express annoyance but when you do you are overreacting?

Well that's offensive bullshit for starters

Why are his feelings reasonable but yours need to be shut down?
