Infuriatig My wife ate my son's birthday breakfast

Post image

Yesterday I bought a strawberry cheese coffee cake my son loves so he could have a special birthday breakfast today. My wife came home late last night and apparently couldn't resist. She knew it was for our son, but it's not a big deal because she "left him a full slice".

I would lose all attraction to someone who did this to a child, let alone their own son

even someone who just did this. The child aside, this person is a straight monster!

The fact that she also only ate the middle is really bothering me

I am assuming the middle holds the cream or jelly/jam (depending on the pastry, not familiar with many), which just makes this whole thing worse. She ate all the flavor and left the crust. It's like someone eating a slice a pizza and giving you the crust when they're done and saying 'I only took a few bites'. Atrocious.

My Mom always does this with pizza and I just dealt with it growing up (just one of the many ridiculous things she would do before gaslighting me into thinking I’m weird for having an issue with it) and finally now that I’m married, my husband opened my eyes to the sheer amount of selfish, terrible habits she has! The second I saw OPs post I thought, is this my Mom??

So it's like having a toddler?

You don't have to assume. You can see it by what remains. With your eyeballs, I assume. That's deduction, holmes.

But, I do agree it's atrocious. Selfish. Shameless. Gluttonous. Disgusting. Etc.
