Question - (25 December 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 25 December 2008)
A male United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

What time shall I put the turkey in the oven. My husband say's 10.00 but I say it don't need to go in till 11.00. The turkey is 10lbs and needs to be ready for 12.00.

Please help. He says this is the final straw if the Christmas dinner is spoilt. It's been a bad year I slept with his brother earlier on in the year (I was drunk) and I don't think he has truly forgiven me.

Thanks

Griffo agony auntI hate blokes like that. How slack to treat you like a bloody slave. I'd dump any man instantly on the spot for imposing such old fashioned and out dated rules on me, if I was a woman. You are a human being. If he can't forgive and keeps making you feel guilty like that then maybe he's not worth it. If he truly loves you he would surly give you one chance to make up. He half has but he's treating you by using blackmailing slavery. Be strong and say if you don't like it shove it up your butt.

I know this is rough but you have moral rights and that's absolutley know way to treat someone ever! He could even do it and complian just to spite you. And still lead you on threatening your relationship. If it continues there's some serious damage been done on the marrage.

I'd go see a marrage counsellor and ask him to go along. He needs help to treat you better,you need to go to sort it out clearly. But you know you've already proven yourself by simply trying to be the best you can and the good thing about that is: At least you'll be able to walk away knowing you tried. That's what matters most. He should be doing the same.

He's telling you that if he has to wait for an hour for his turkey, your marriage is over?

I really don't think this is about dinner any more.

It's too late to really be of help with your cooking but here is a link:

Your husband can either forgive you for cheating or not. He can't keep you in terror of leaving you because his dinner is late.

Either separate for a while so he can decide whether he wants you or not, or agree that he has to stop punishing you and work constructively towards putting your marriage back together.

Good Luck!! xx
