Vent: husband half-a**es everything

[Anonymous]

This type of thing plays out all the time in my house—be it home repairs or juggling kids schedules or things related to our relationship. Although DCUM will be quick to assume I demand that everything is perfect or done exactly the way I want it, I am NOT that woman. I do my best to appreciate that he’s done something with good intentions even if it’s not the way I’d want it done. For home repairs stuff, I’ve learned to hire a lot out. It’s harder to be that zen however when DH messes up things like anniversaries or birthdays and then gets angry with me because I wasn’t blown over by whatever last minute (or last second) thing he pulled out of his ass. Often times these are gifts that are wildly expensive and impractical (as in jewelry I’ll never ever wear) because that’s what was available that day. If my reaction isn’t total bliss (bc I’m running the budget explosion in my head), I’m a terrible person. I’m not sure if there’s a name for that but the half ass + blame me scenario is exhausting.

I couldn’t imagine being so obsess with the switch being in the down position for off.

You nitpick everything and he is over it.
