As far as reasonable requests go, this woman's request for her husband to leave a lasagna alone that was specially prepared for a birthday seems completely reasonable. However, it sounds like her husband couldn't be bothered to take her request seriously. So, a pretty expectable drama ensues. I mean, what did he think was going to happen? And then he goes ahead with the cold shoulder in response to her reaction? Yikes.

    Font - AITA for losing it after my husband ate from the lasagna I prepared for my niece's birthday? Not the A-hole My niece's (13) birthday was last Wed. She's the most intelligent, most creative kid in the family. She loves her Auntie's (me) lasagna and says it's to die for. For her birthday, she asked that I make her lasagna cause she loves it so much and having it will complete her happy day, I agreed with no hasitation. The day before her birthday I got to work. I went shopping for ingredien

    Font - At 3pm My husband got home, had lunch then opened the fridge to grab a drink and saw the lasagna. He asked about it and I answered this lasagna was made for my niece's birthday. I told him I made family size portion so we could all eat together there at my parents house. He was like "oh, really?". I asked him to please not touch it and he said he won't. He fell asleep on the couch after checking his phone as I went upstairs to get stuff done. At 4pm I came downstairs to wake him up to go

    Font - He said " I woke up feeling hungry" okay but he already had lunch and other snacks available in the fridge. He replied he really wanted to get a piece and couldn't wait til we got to my parents and reminded me that he loses his apetite at my parents house. I called him unbelieveable cause he ruined how the lasagna looked when he cut the middle of it and messed it up by a kid. I spent time, money, effort on it and he casually said "No big deal" but to me it is especially sine I told him th

    Font - We got into an argument over this and he ended up not going saying it's cause of how treated him over lasagna. When I got home he kept giving me cold shoulder, didn't even ask how things went after what he did. My husband has ADHD but normally he understands when I ask him to leave stuff alone. He also loves food and his favorite is lasagna. While there was no harm with him taking a piece, I just lost my temper which is a bad thing. 15.6k 1.7k ↑, Share

    Font - the-willow-witch · 21h ADHD doesn't mean you can just do whatever and not get blamed. Your husband completely disregarded what you said and was disrespectful to you. Just because it's not important to him doesn't mean it's not important. NTA and your husband absolutely is one. 2.8k 3 ...

    Font - Kristieboo96• 21h Partassipant [1] 5 Awards NTA. I can't even work out your husband's train of thought in this one. Sounds like he's just an entitled Ah who wanted Lasagna and didn't give af about your time or your niece's happiness. I'd have lost my cool too, probably not the most mature way to handle a dispute, but in the moment being disrespected like that would make me really lose my cool.

    Product - NTA and i am very curious if he frequently sabotages things that are important to you? is he always this selfish and inconsiderate or does he only act up when your family is involved? edited to add: as someone with adhd, it does not prevent me from understanding that if someone asks me not to eat something i should not eat it! 1.6k ...

    Product - Nta, so it's your fault that you got upset cause he couldn't exercise some self control being an adult, not eat food that was for your niece party? He's lucky he didn't wear the rest of it, cause there is no excuse for him doing that. Especially after he told you he wouldn't eat it. 34 3 ...
