Once in a year I have McD something, more often cheesesteaks, and once in 2 years I crave KFC like there is no tomorrow. Few days ago I told my husband I want KFC but I will cook from scratch for him whatever he likes. So if he doesn't want order out he has his regular home made food. Always. When I said I am having KFC he said I can buy chicken and make it instead of eating shit. I said I am old enough to have my rights to any shit I wish to eat. He said I can go get it myself. I said in a come soothing voice I HAVE MY DAMN RIGHTS TO EAT WHATEVER SHIT I WANT AND YOU ARE WILL NOT TELL ME WHAAT TO DO!  He called me nasty name and we aren't talking for 2 days now!
It had been the longest ever for me to hold the pause. He can do it for months (with my Mom) - I couldn't ever. I would always start talking after an hour. 2 days Do I love KFC that much Is it a crisis? We haven't fought for a long time...
Of course I got it and ate it and enjoyed every bit of it! And mush with gravy!!!!!! Cole slaw and bisquit! ALL of it!
Have you ever heard about divorce over love of food |

I also crave KFC about every 2 years! But DH gets excited because he would go way more often than me!
KFC not worth not talking for 2 days, it must have been a 'last straw' event, built up anger??

This sounds like the most ridiculous fight ever.
If you want to eat shitty food, that is your right. If he doesnt want to go get it for you, that is his right.

I had White Castle chicken sandwiches with waffles as the bun this morning at 3am.
Put syrup and jelly on them, oh they were delicious!

I wish a disagreement over which chicken dinner to have (or more likely pizza place to order from) would result in people not talking to me... I daydream about "peace and quiet". ::sigh:: sometimes the prospect of life long solitary confinement seems like just another benefit/pro/perk (instead of a deterrent) when I'm struggling with controlling to urge to "kill" someone... ::sigh:: I do get the urge to have a particular Fast Food... the KFC here is just nasty... it's the ONLY fast food place that never has cars in the drive thru or the parking lot. I assume it's some sort of money laundering operation or someone's shelter money via the losses this place is generating. Everyone goes to the White Fence Farm "hole in the wall" take out place, instead. And at least once a year I get a craving for their chicken and corn fritters (mmmmm corn fritters)  |

An old boss used to joke that there are 3 major issues that break up a marriage- sex, money and squeezing the toothpaste tube in the middle. In other words, if you're getting into a screaming argument over junk food, something more important is going on.
To answer your question: DH and I have been married almost 13 years, dated for 6 years before that. We've never had an argument because we agree on the important things and don't have any great need to "win" on the minor issues.

I'll admit I'm the last person to know what a good marriage involves, but not having a single argument in 19 years seems just as odd to me as not talking for 2 days over KFC. |

My Ex and I argued plenty. We had very different financial too titis and he was mean. When DH and I are at opposite ends of an issue, we're both reasonable enough to realize the truth is somewhere in the middle and can find a compromise that satisfies us both- or, occasionally, one comes over to the other's point of view. |

About 25 years ago DW tried to pick a fight. I laughed and told her she wasn't mad at me and I wasn't going to fight. That was the closest we ever came to a fight. In retrospect, laughing was probably a risky approach. I'd imagine in that situation most women would have beaned me with the largest hard object at hand. Since I've been annoying her for over25 years, she obviously has a high tolerance for aggravation. |

I am sorry...not ever fighting in marriage means you don't give a damn about each other That's in my book...and MPL's lol |

Sure I will I'm a tough old bird. Sometimes I would just like to feel I can be soft and not feel like I have to carry the load for all the paperwork, house, rental stuff. etc. I deal with our stuff, our DD's stuff, MILs stuff and then get told how easy it all is to do. I get him ticked at me because I am so detailed, I dot all the i's and cross the t's and he is always saying you don't need to do all that. I can imagine the paperwork nightmare if I didn't. I would love to just turn it all over but I don't want to have to clean it all up again or pay for the consequences. He admits he wouldn't know what do to for DD. He takes care of all the mechanicals and all the things like that, saves us a fortune and I thank him, but I guess I just feel unappreciated. Honestly I can't tell you even after I wrote all this why I'm so mad today. It's just there.
It's kind of like today for some reason the last straw got piled on. I'll get over it, but it feels good to blow. I guess there was more built up tension then I realized.
Mainly I'm just plain bored and feeling stir crazy I think?? Who knows after all I'm an Aries. Maybe that explains it!! Being an Aries does does explain a lot to me! However being a Gemini I am the same way. All DH is doing is Sri I got me around He has no ice what's what and wher. It is. When he wants something he will go extra mile and than some. When I want KFC it is shit because he doesn't want to drive extra 2 min. I am feeling like I am never been cared for. Don't tell me about loving me. Get me damn chicken when I ask about it!!! Yes dear would have done it!!! |

This thread made me go to KFC for lunch today. Perhaps Col. Sanders owes you a commission, loony.
