Never give in--never, never, never, never

>>  Saturday, August 18, 2012

I am stubborn, I have the world record in stubborn, you really shouldn't ever try to out-stubborn me, this lady is not for turning.

You see, I cook a meal and often eat leaving HWMBO's in 'the cooking implement of choice for the evening' for him to reheat and eat when he finally gets home from work.  HWMBO tends to then try to cremate rather than reheat my efforts, which is fine I suppose - he's eating it BUT what really gets my goat is when he starts adding to the pot.  A little bit of this, a little bit of that.

This says to me that the food I cooked wasn't good enough, that my cooking tastes bad and needs more work.  This to me shouts disrespect.

It has finally come to a head with a stubborn out where he refuses to acknowledge it as important and I will no longer be cooking.

There is another problem here, he takes the silver in stubborn but there's all to play for at this stage of the game.

Of course I hold more cards in my hand which include the shopping (from which he is currently feeding himself), the washing, ironing  (oh dear Dear, are there no shirts in the wardrobe?  Well you just need to APOLOGISE and it will all be over as quickly as it started).

Surrender is all that is required.

Never give in--never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

And before you start: 'good sense' is not even touching this one.
