Today, I washed all the dishes and cups from the family dinner last night and put them away. When my wife saw, she had a mini OCD breakdown and yelled at me because the cups weren't lined up with each other with the handles aligned and the flower pictures facing out left. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I woke up early to do the dishes and clean up, after having people over yesterday. Now my wife is mad at me because I didn't stay in bed with her longer. FML
Today, my wife bitched at me for not washing my hands before handling the dishes. The dirty dishes. That were sitting in a sink of hot soapy water. According to her, the dirt from my hands was gonna make the dirty dishes even dirtier. Huh? FML
Today, while my parents were grocery shopping, I cleaned the kitchen, swept floors, did laundry, and cleaned bathrooms, only to finish right before they got home. After dinner, my dad bitched and complained that I didn't take out the trash and he had no room to throw away his paper plate. FML
Today, my wife yelled at me for being a bastard and not caring about her needs. I felt like an asshole and apologized for everything. It took me a few hours to realize I'd basically just apologized for unknowingly hanging the toilet paper the "wrong way" for her OCD. FML
Today, I got home to my grandma yelling at the top of her lungs that I didn't do everything I was supposed to when I was home. I literally washed dishes, cleaned counters, vacuumed, gathered trash, AND cleaned the bathroom. I didn't fold my blankets. That's it. That's what she was yelling about. FML
Today, I made breakfast for the family. Perfect. Did all the Laundry. Great. Drove the one and a half hour round trip to take my stepdaughter to work. Blah. Finished off by doing some housework and cooking dinner. The dinner wasn't perfect, and my wife told me that for all the good I do, I ruin everything. FML
Today, my roommate said that whoever was doing the dishes was doing it wrong. I've been doing the dishes for weeks. So much for being a clean roommate. FML
Today, my roommate yelled at me yet again for using the dishwasher because it's "unsanitary." This is all while a mountain of her dishes were going mouldy in the sink. FML
Today, I got yelled at for not taking an order correctly at work. I've been washing dishes all day and haven't taken a single order. FML
Today, my kids and I went to have dinner with a coworker. After everyone ate, the kids went to play while I helped clear the dishes. To my horror, instead of individually wrapping the kids leftovers, she scraped all the uneaten food back into the main pots. I wanted to puke on the spot. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Well, I'd say let her do the dishes from now on. That's one less chore you have to worry about.

I'm not sure you can complain. You had to have known about her OCD when you married her.

Disorganize the divorce papers and serve her. In the confusion she will sign em and you will be free.

That would be a really dumb reason to get a divorce..
MRSwick2525 23
so what you are saying is for this gentleman to file for a divorce all because his wife has OCD? I would HATE to be in any type of relationship with you. you sound like an asshole.

She literally has a condition where she can't help it. She sees it as important while everyone else doesn't. There's no need to be a douchebag about it, I'm sure she's still a lovely person otherwise.

You might want to sit down and decide which things bother her the most and which things she is ok with you doing and let that be how the chores will be divided.

This kind of thing is why I quit taking my turn unloading the dishwasher when I lived with one of my old roommates. She bitched about that too, but at least I didn't have to do work first.

She could have appreciated you doing the dishes and rearranged them if she wanted. Personally, I'm thrilled if someone does my dishes. I don't care how they put them away

She needs some help....soon, or just maybe she just hates you for some reason???

She has OCD which is an actual condition, not just something everybody gets when things aren't the way they like it.

She probably really appreciates you washing and drying the dishes. If her problem was because of her OCD I wouldn't worry about it too much. I'm sure she's glad you did them ^.^
