[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Husband drinks a 1L bottle of Perrier every night, sometimes cracking an additional one after dinner. As in, the size we use for the table, he will grab his own and drink the entire thing during dinner, while the rest of the table is content to share one 1L bottle. They only cost about $1-2/each,  but it bothers me so much. I encourage him to just drink still filtered tap if he's so dehydrated but he refuses. I do the shopping, so lugging all the 1L bottles every week is a real chore, plus recycling all of them, and isn't it sort of gluttonous and unseemly. I think he started cracking the additional bottles after dinner just to tick me off.[/quote]

If he's opening more just to bother you, then perhaps he feels you are nagging him. Not to turn the blame on you, but I wonder how you've been communicating your concerns to him. I always know when my kids start doing the opposite of what I ask, that I haven't communicated properly with them. DH is obviously not a kid but adults too are sensitive to words, tone, etc. and this can be the different between getting a defensive response and getting your message across.[/quote]
