![]() ![]() You’re taking issue with the fact that she’s grocery shopping responsibly? Yeah, we don’t buy that. You think it’s good if she can make friends? How patronizing. ![]() You’re not upset or angry if it takes this long? If that was the case, this post wouldn’t exist. ![]() Good deflection, OP! Blame it on whatever lie you think she’s telling by lying yourself. “But she keeps telling me that she takes this long because she is checking which stuff is on sale, which stuff can be skipped for now, which stuff can store, etc.” “It’s good for her if she can meet friends while shopping.” “To be clear, I’m not upset or angry if she takes this long to go do the shopping,” OP said very convincingly (not!). Mid-post, OP felt the need to double back. “She denies this of course but every time she goes out shopping and comes back she always has some new gossip about what is happening in the neighborhood,” he continued. I think that she is running into friends from her mom’s groups and chatting and losing track of time.” “The store is only 5 minutes away and she usually goes just before lunch so it’s not too busy. “I’m talking a good hour and a half just to buy like the weekly groceries,” he wrote. When OP started working his tech job (he had to drop that in) from home, he noticed his wife would take “a very long time” to do the weekly shop. And being the saint that he is, he’s ready to lend a hand (read: unsolicited condescending input)! Picking small stuff up on the way home! A saint! Well now that OP is at home, he’s becoming more aware of all the grocery shopping a family of four requires. “My work-from-home career only started when the pandemic began so before we got married and when we were dating and cohabiting I never did much major grocery shopping (apart from picking small stuff up on the way home) as my wife worked fewer hours than me and did it instead.” OP works from home four days per week and his wife is a stay-at-home mom ( SAHM). This 44-year-old man who was the original poster (“OP”) on Reddit has two children with his 34-year-old wife: an 18-month-old daughter and a 3-month-old son. And so while some Reddit posts are a slow burn, the quick-to-the-point title of his post instantly made our skin crawl: “AITA for doing the shopping faster than my wife?”Īnnoyed already? We know we were. It’s all about timing and efficiency with this man. ![]()
