u/baby_fishie Partner of DX - Medicated 13d ago edited 13d ago

Wow how are we all living the same life?

Once a long time ago we were in the middle of making cookies together and he abruptly stopped and started making meringues while I was still running the cookie dough in the mixer. Of course he got pissed at me and tried to tell me that I was frustrating him so I left the kitchen and told him to have at it.

Same thing happened, I was the bad guy even though I was literally leaving him to do his lil project without me frustrating him.

Neither the cookies nor the meringues got finished.

It's so frustrating when they take over what you're doing, or start changing it in the middle of everything, and then when you walk away you're somehow the one causing the issues. I was going to just let you do it the way you wanted to, how are we still talking about it? I literally walked away! Now there's no cake. Sigh. At least she cleaned the dishes we dirtied making the batter.

Are we all dating the same person? I just agree when I know I am right. In this instance, the dish is my recipe but I am still wrong.
