For not calling DH to congratulate him on Arsenal winning the Premiership?

[FierceForester90]

Hubby is an Arsenal fan, has been as long as Ive known him but doesn't got to many matches. DS1 supports a local team, has a season ticket and is rather more passionate about his team.

This week I worked away and while I wasn't here Arsenal won the league. They didn't win it as a result of a match they were in they won it as a result of another team losing meaning they couldn't be caught.

Hubby has had a proper moan that all his mates messaged him to say congratulations and I didn't even ring. Im a bit miffed because if there had been an Arsenal game on that determined it id have kept track of the score.

He works as a Driving Instructor and every single time he has a student pass I text or call. I am always supportive of the things he achieves personally.

If he was at the level of supporting DH1 is I'd understand his annoyance. AIBU to think its a bit much?

Is this spat still festering on this beautiful bank holiday weekend?

how do you know he moaned to all his mates?

actually - irrelevant, sounds all sounds a bit shit to me

Well, if he’s on the squad, YABU. But I assume that his driving instructing isn’t a side-hustle, so YANBU.

My DH sent out various WhatsApp messages to Arsenal supporters congratulating them. I did ask what had they done to deserve congratulations. He just said that I don’t get it.

He sounds like a drama queen. I can’t believe that every time one of his students passes that you call or text him. WTF? Is he age 5? Does he congratulate you each time you do your job?

Unless he’s an Arsenal player / owner / team manager, why on earth do you have to message him to say congratulations. What was his contribution that he needs congratulating for?

He is 5 years old.

Sorry but he needs to get a life. What a cock

Are you married to a teenager OP?

If he was a player or manager, fair enough but he is being ridiculous

Congratulate him? Utter nonsense. He didn't score the winning goal. He did nothing that deserves congratulating, or anything more than a 'That's nice dear.' if he mentions it.

if there had been an Arsenal game on that determined it id have kept track of the score.

Why? Genuine question. If you don't support the team, why on earth would you bother. He can tell you the results if he wants.

YANBU. I'm so pleased my husband doesn't like football.

Why would you congratulate him? He’s done nothing

How pathetic, no really this would make me lose respect for him.

What a dick. I didn't message my husband when Villa won on Wednesday and i have no idea if anyone else did, and he was actually in Istanbul.

I will be messaging my brother if Spurs go down tomorrow though :-)

This

Does he congratulate you on everything that goes well for you? He sounds like the child he needs telling "well done you washed your hands/wiped your own arse/put the rubbish in the bin" constantly. Sod that.

Unless he has in the team or actually made the winning goal, he is quite mad

Your husband has achieved fuck all! Unless in between his driving lessons he makes an appearance in midfield. I have a season ticket for my local team but I’d not expect anyone to ring me to congratulate me!

Does he play for arsenal?!

what a baby! I couldn’t be with someone that pathetic, sorry OP. He has done nothing to be congratulated for!

@FierceForester90 does he also play for Arsenal as well as being a driving instructor?

If he doesn’t, then it wasn’t him that won so why the hell would you congratulate him?

Drip feed, husband is Jurrien Timber

Call him a glory fan and tell him not to be such a stupid prick.

Is he the manager, coach or a player? Is someone this pathetic fit to be a driving instructor?

@FierceForester90 please show him this thread.

I honestly believe I would hate myself if I had picked such a moron to be my husband. Sorry OP if this offends you.

I don't really understand why you would congratulate him - I mean it's not as if he scored the winning goal is it?

Gosh he’s needy isn’t he?

Congratulate him? Why? I assume he didn't play in any games or coach the team that won! What a big soft baby!
YANBU

Does he congratulate you every time you do something well at work? He sounds very needy…
