[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I came downstairs ready to go to a friend’s bbq with DH and our two DC. When DH saw me he flipped out. I was wearing a yellow JCREW off the shoulder top and jeans. He told me I looked like an insect because of the top being bright yellow, and said to our boys, “doesn’t mom look like a bumble bee”. He asked me to change and I said no. He said he would go without me then, which he did (and took the kids).

He called me several times during the bbq and I didn’t answer. I think he feels bad now. I left the house so I wasn’t home when he got back. What would you do? [/quote]

Was it yellow top and black pants?  That probably could make you look like a bumble bee.  But yellow top and blue jeans would actually look nice.

OK?   Why is so angry and why are you so quick to take offense? Dude!!!! You actually have bigger resentments simmering.  And the fact that you have two small kids - oh, oh, oh! This is the shit phase of parenting. Most stressful.  You both need to simmer down and learn to communicate better. [/quote]

Yeah, no. Did you miss the part where he left without her?[/quote]

[b]Yeah, no, she did not change right? [/b]He then called several times and she did not pick up the phone, right? Neither of them are making good decisions. They both sound immature and their feelings are getting hurt quite a lot. All of which is fine by itself. Unfortunately, they have also produced two kids and this can and will impact them. [/quote]

She doesn’t need to change, fool. He doesn’t decree what she can and cannot wear on HER body.[/quote]

You're right he can't make her change, but he Can choose to leave without her.. Why does she need to make a big deal out of her husband not liking her outfit? Why ruin a day with her family because she's too stubborn and selfish to change her shirt? Marriage is about compromise, sometimes that means changing your clothes. Hardly a difficult task to avoid a heated argument and marital / family issues over.

Learn to compromise lady[/quote]

Nah. Nope. That's not it. She's an adult and can wear whatever she chooses. She doesn't need a man who tells her what to wear or makes fun of her because he doesn't like her outfit. Teasing her in front of the kids was a controlling move to make her feel bad so that she would change. Compromise in marriage is not about outfit changes or telling her to "stop stuffing her face" while eating. He's a jerk and so are you for agreeing with him.[/quote]

Nah. Nope.  She is not a single woman who can dress up like Honey Boo Boo's mom in public.     She is going out with her family and she cannot embarrass them by dressing like a bumble bee who should have stopped stuffing her face several sizes ago.

Besides, women are critical of how their spouse and children dress all the time and no one would have criticized her if she had objected to her DH wearing a hideous outfit for a public outing. [/quote]
