Dh was driving me crazy at dinner...kept looking at the way I was eating and then got furious as to how I eat my chicken WTF? Said I was wasting too much of it and if I want to treat my food so disrepectfully maybe I should get a job and pay for groceries...um seriously what is going on here I can't even eat anything without it turning into a $ issue!

tell him next time you'll pay more for chicken breast so you won't have to deal with the bone. or tell him you're leaving chicken over so you can boil it up into a soup for the next meal. [ Reply | More

or she can say that if he's picking on the way she eats, there must be something else goin gon in his head and perhaps try to talk to him abt what it is. maybe he's worried about money. or losing his job. it may have nothing to do with her and the way she eats chicken. might not be a bad idea for OP to try to talk to him, say what he did was odd and hurtful and ask him what's up.

you should tell him that this "getting a job to pay for groceries" is a good idea - maybe from now on you'll start charging him for sex. [ Reply | More

I agree he just wants me to work even though I want to stay home but I am NOT a spender I realize we have a small income by NYC standards and I respect his work and what he does for our family I think he is trying to tell me that he is stressed so I can do my part but that does not include eating weird slimy boney meat!!!
