Oh Happy Day

Today I just want to smack my husband. Here's the deal yesterday he just wouldn't stop being a freaking idiot. He kept touching me and just acting like he was five. He farted and it was nasty and he kept messing with me. He then went to work at night time and came home about five this morning. He had to go back into work at eight this morning and like he left the alarm on which just made me mad. And I need quaters for the wash so he leaves me a five dollar bill. I'm like "What magically quarters are going to pop out of my behind?" Ugh. Ok here's the question for the discussion: What do you do when these days happen to you? And does your husband do dumb things like this just to get under your skin?

I guess I'm a lucky one, he never does stuff like that just to irritate me. In fact he's just the opposite, if he stops at the store he always brings me some little surprise, if he's working late, he calls just to talk. He will not wake me up when he gets up for work, on the rare occassion I don't have to go to work that day. If I'm napping on the couch, he will cover me up, turn the tv down and just let me nap. He helps around the house, does dishes, mops, whatever he thinks I need help with. If I'm working late, he fixes dinner, and has coffee ready when I walk in the door. So I'm pretty lucky, actually after my last marriage, I didn't know these kind of men existed, but I was lucky enough to find one.

LOL, we've been together 2 1/2 years, but we knew 10 minutes after we met that we would be together. I am very lucky. I knew he was really special from the start, but I really did, when I got a bad cold the first fall I was here, moved from Texas to PA for us to be together, and he stayed home and fixed me chicken noodle soup and just let me sleep.

what do you do for work? Your husband is working some pretty incredibly crazy hours. Not to take sides but I am a single mom who raised 4 kids with virtually NO help.

Actually my significant other and I play like that all the time. We enjoy playing and having fun and, quite honestly, fart at each other all the time. Marriage, like any relationship, is about give and take. You can't expect to have things handed over easily all the time, you have to be willing to give sometimes too. I know it's not always fun, but it's what you signed up for. Maybe your dear hubby is just trying to get you to lighten up and have some fun? You sound pretty irritable, so that would be my best guess.

When these days happen to me I get irritated for awhile. Then, I just laugh and get over it. It is hard some of the time, especially when you are irritated. I think it is the nature of boyfriends and husbands to be extremely gross some of the times. To be inconsiderate is also their nature also. They just never think. I suppose it feels that way to them, also. Some of the times. When Bruce does things like this to get under my skin, I just smile and ignore him. In the end, I usually start giggling, because he did it to make me smile. They have such a weird sense of humor. Some of them do. LOL

Yes! That is the nature of husbands. That is why if you ask my mother how many children she has its four. Her 2 daughters her son and her husband. I have been with my husband for over a decade.Known him for 12 years. Been married for 6 of them. The deal is you start to over look the childish things they do. And your memory starts to color with the days he let's you sleep in, and makes you breakfast instead.Try and focus on that. By the way the nasty fart thing, over time they know. My husband now gets up goes to the hallway -----and them comes back to bed lol.

lol He doesn't let me sleep in! You're so funny. He tries to but I always wake up when the kids wake up so my thought prosses is why wake both of us up so I will lay in bed for half an hour and after I finally get out of bed he'll just go back to it. I might as well get up and do the kid thing. Plus he works from 4:00am till 6:00 pm everyday.

That sounds like every day here. At least the days my husband is home. All I can say is go for a walk. It's the only way I keep from going nuts. I won't even go into the things my husband does because it will just put me in a bad mood, but if I have to say one thing I wish my husband would learn not to break things.

I think all husbands are like that at some point. Mine knows to back off once he gets me too mad, then he kisses butt big time. Fortunately, he doesn't do it too much though. Men can be turds sometimes, but we love them anyway.

My husband knows better than to do stupid stuff like that because if he did my desire to smack him would turn into reality, and I WOULD smack him. Not only would I smack he, he wouldn't have any arguments!!! I couldn't stay married to my husband if he was as immature and idiotic as you just described. YIKES!!

My husband gets under my skin all the time. He acts like yours, messing with me. He thinks he's funny. He's never serious. However, I wouldn't trade him for the world. I think I'm far too serious, so he tries to compensate for that by being too serious. Tell him you need at least a ten to do laundry. Then run to the local car wash and get quarters out of the changer.

I meant he tries to compensate for my seriousness with his silliness. I'm listening to music, talking to my husband, and posting at the same time. I was bound to type something wrong! :)

I don't have to deal with what your dealing with but I suggest taking a deep deep breathe and ask your self if its really worth getting yourself so upset, have you tried talking to your husband about getting under your skin, he may not be doing it on purpose.
10 Dec 07
well dear i m not married so i can't say like what type could be my husband. but i think if the acts of your husbands irritate you or they get out of your head then talk to your husband when you both have time and also when your husband is comfortable and calm because a work done in hurry spoils the things. Share your all concerns with him and try to involve him in suggestions. share all concerns no matter small or big, relevant or irrelevant
