Dumbest arguments with DH

in August 2011 Moms

What are some of the dumbest arguments you've had with DH?

Could be misunderstandings that resulted in heated discussions or full-on he's in the dog house sleeping on the couch kind of fights.

Also, have YOU done anything that's caused a big fight?

In honor of today's challenge...  C'MON ladies!!

    We've actually argued about a person on tv. He always mistakes one actor for another. I will correct him and he will say I'm wrong. Even though I know for a fact, I will google said actor to show he was wrong, then he will get mad and say I just have to be right! Then we end up not talking the rest of the evening.

    We argue over kitchen scissors. I have scissors to cut food with. DH uses them for non-food items, and it drives me crazy. We have actually argued over this before.

    We don't really argue. I know that sounds bad, but DH is just really quiet. We've had disagreements, and I've gotten upset with him, but I try to keep it toned down.

    I got a trip to the Grand Canyon out of a disagreement once -

    We were driving back to Cali from Oklahoma. DH doesn't talk in the car, and I was going crazy (early days of our marriage and still getting used to each other's quirks). I had asked if we would be able to go to the Grand Canyon, but he said it was too far out of the way.

    We were near Flagstaff, Arizona, and the sunset was beautiful. I reached over to hold his hand, thinking he'd also noticed the beautiful sunset, but I got nothing. No response whatsoever. In those early days, I thought the silent treatment meant he was upset. So I ended up getting really upset with him for not talking to me or responding to me or anything. I don't remember what all I said.

    He clearly felt bad. We stopped in Flagstaff for the night as planned, and then took a detour to the Grand Canyon the next day.

    I now crochet on road trips. And if I'm close to finishing a project and we still have awhile to go, I find a craft store to buy more yarn for a new project. It makes road trips much better.

    My spending habits have gotten me "in trouble" a couple of times ("in trouble" meaning that he was bothered enough to say something). When he deployed, I went to live with my family. We don't have Chick-fil-a in Hawaii, and I went a bit crazy eating CFA all.the.time when I first got back. After seeing the credit card bill, he told me that I needed to cut back because it was starting to add up.

    We rarely argue, but when we do, it's almost always over money.  And not the big stuff, we argue about little dumb stuff.  I'm usually like, "WTH, why do you think spending $40 on a freaking poncho is necessary?" and he replies with something lame like, "well, I don't want my schoolbag to get wet....and at least I didn't get the $75 poncho...that's good, right?"  And then I go bang the pots and pans around in the kitchen while I make dinner in a rage. 

    He almost never argues with me.  He just gets mad and ignores me.  That, in itself, is infuriating!

    We had a screaming and crying (me) fight over where to place the surround sound speakers. I REFUSE to have speakers on my mantle. I love to decorate the mantle for every holiday and season, it was very important to me. And he wanted to put a giant speaker on there! THE NERVE!!! The fight ended when I dramatically threw myself onto our couch, only to miss the couch and fall onto the floor. We both then laughed until we cried.
