Yes, you are being unreasonable. You are a man so you *must* be being unreasonable. It's obvious.

HTH.

MrsREV and me had a little disagreement this morning

She has decided to go on a trip to York before Christmas (some shopping thing, no doubt) with her Mum, so she phoned the travel company to book it but the person dealing with it wasn't available and they said they would call her back. At this point says "oh, you'll have to speak to my husband then, he'll sort it all out with you". Now at this point, I knew nothing about the trip, who was going, when or where or anything, so I told her that she should have asked me first before volunteering me to deal with it.

Apparently I'm selfish and she thought I was "nicer than than that".

I don't mind doing it, but I hate being volunteered for stuff without being asked [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

 

Just sort it mate,its the easiest option in the long run.

 

I think she's taking the gish a little! Do it and then reep the rewards

 

Whatever you do don't argue back, that screws stuff up big time as I now know.

 

book her onto a coach to s****horpe

 

I do this to my wife all the time, just forget to tell her about conversations. She just tells me, I go Oops I forgot, Sorry!!

End of, no big issue.

 

Her reply of "I assumed you wouldn't have a problem with it" annoyed me the most.

Well I do. And where's my breakfast?

She buggered off to work at that point

Looking at the newspaper advert she threw at me, I'm going to book her on the Leeds Royal Armouries tour, that'll learn 'er

 

"She has decided to go on a trip to York before Christmas (some shopping thing, no doubt) with her Mum"

Yeah right - are you sure its not your neighbour or a work colleague shes going with?

 

It's not the neighbour, and if it's a work colleague it'll be another woman, which is cool in my book

 

oh yes

 

what about the milkman?

 

No you are not being unreasonable, personally I think a slap is well in oreder , and make her go without a portion for a month

 

If it's a one-off, what are you complaining about?

If it's a constant thing, perhaps talking to her and asking her to keep you informed would be a better approach?

My dad does this to my mum all the time - will ask people to ring up and organise stuff which the first mum hears about is when they DO ring.

 

Maybe its milkwoman

Back on topic... i dont mind the being volunteered for stuff bit but id expect to know what the hell i was being volunteered for.

Theres nowt worse than someone saying, can you deal with this, when you have NO FCUKIN IDEA what it is ur supposed to deal with.

Having said that, if it was my missus i was gettin rid of for the day i'd make the effort (just kiddin luv xxx)

 

Erm, yeah.

Quality post...........

 

Spose if you do sort it out for her she'll be grateful and will have to return the favour sorting out a lads weekend for you

 

there's a gag in there somewhere...

give the...




oh no, i can't go there, it's too low...

 

There's surely more than one C()NT in S****horpe

 

s****horpe?

 

How come BB & HJ got that through then?

 

i drove past it - does that count?

 

no y ou have to sign the "been to scunthorpe register" whilst in scunthorpe

 

Back on the subject.

All you can do Not Rev is to do the booking. You and I know that you will never win that argument. You might even get a Christmas present instead of "no talk and cold breakfast".

TK, It's very difficult not to appear unreasonable in the face of illogical attitudes!

Les

 

Off topic Yorks crap anyway for shopping

i live there

si

 

Just get one way tickets - she might get the message....

 

Rev- Depends on your relationship doesn't it?

If you feel intimidated by her "demand" then you'll feel defensive and have a strop.

If you feel it was a compliment that she knew you would be more than clever enough to sort it in her absence then you'd gladly say " yes love, no probs".

The latter is really what a good relationship is about surely, the former has a competitive element.

You were hardly volunteered for anything major were you?

A simple phonecall from a grown man can't be hard for the one you love dearly, can it?
