my husband wouldn’t lick the floor so now I’m giving him the silent treatment
is this the right place for this?
my husband hasn’t washed the rug in my getting ready room, which includes the cat litter box. I’ve asked him to for weeks but he does everything except that.
The problem? I have a 6 month old who is able to squirm off his playmat now and until he washes the rug, I can’t set up the playpen and get the litter box moved (household logistics and not wanting to put the open floor playpen on a dirty rug)
Today I made into lay face down on the rug to prove a thing after he started arguing with me about MY preferences in completing MY (unrelated) project.
He did what he was told and went face down on the rug but when I told him to lick it, he refused!
I asked him why not and he said it was “disgusting.”
“Oh, so it’s fine for our son to lick but not you?”
😏
At that point he angrily got up and said he wasn’t going to play my little game because he had more self-respect than that.
“But not enough self-respect to keep cat litter out of your baby son’s mouth” is what I left it at before walking out to the porch.
He tried to come out and “talk to me about the project”
No man is going to dominate me in the manner of his choosing, if he is not also willing to be dominated in the manner of MY choosing.
I am outside taking the last of my mama break while the baby sleeps. I think I hear the vacuum running.
Please give me more evil mom ideas.
Thanks!
ETA: what was he doing while not washing the rug? Being completely useless! All he did was dishes, cook every meal, do all of my laundry, competently take care of the baby while I do whatever I want, go to work everyday, bring home six figures and dinner and other useless things. Ugh. I don’t know why I put up with him. 🙄
