"You Said Yes" -Vent-

Does anyone else's husband use this as an answer when arguing about something? 

I was talking about dog sitting for a friend and my H was saying that we need to leave the bedroom door shut so he can go some where if his allergies act up. So whatever, fine. I was telling him how I want another dog in our near future, and he was saying we can only get a hypoallergenic dog (like ours now). This kind of made me sad because there are not that many breeds that are, especially from rescue. (All rescue dogs up here right now are labs, which is the opposite of what we want). I basically cant get a dog that I actually want, just one that wont make him sick, and he said, "Well you said yes", like I should have read the friggin fine print on the "Marrying my Husband Contract". 

 I hate it when he uses this as an answer in an argument. I feel like it gives him all of the power, and he doesn't have to listen to anything else I have to say on the subject. Really what we should have done before the wedding was sit down, hash out all of the situations in our lives that could make us unhappy with each other, and see which are deal breakers. Maybe I'm being silly, but I feel like people don't actually do that.

So there. I would love to know if any other nesties have my problem.

  • I completely understand what you mean. I got into a minor argument with H on Tuesday because I'm not an active poster on FB and really don't like to post pictures. He asked if when the baby is born his cousin which is not a friend of mine on FB would be able to post a picture of the baby on her page.. I honestly answered that I would prefer not. He got absolutely enraged and stated "I should have know all this before we got married". Mind you the baby is due in Sept.

     What, he wouldn't have married you if he'd known you don't like posting photos on Facebook?  That seems a little odd.

  • What a cop out.  That's a ridiculous argument that can go both ways.

  • Wow, that does not sound like a valid argument. (Neither does the "I wish I had know before I married you" a/b facebook pictures!)

    After everything has cooled down and you both are relaxed, I would sit down and have a talk about using those types of phrases. It does nothing for your relationship- or the argument for that matter.
