I am pretty sure people will downvote me if I say this but; My fücking åss, that woman is an åsshole! "No, I am absolutely incapable of actually talking to my husband or expressing if I want something, let alone respect others decisions, I WANT a pink house, he can't tell me what to do so I'm just gonna do it anyway without asking because I am a pretty little princess and can do anything I want, using my husband's naivety/possible colorblindness for myself. And since that works, what else can I exploit now because I WANT?" Like, hell no, if I came home and the walls were baby blue all of a sudden, or whatever else, without me ever agreeing (or specifically saying no), I would be irritated beyond confusion and really wonder why this either wasn't communicated or just disrespected by my partner.

Kind of a weird post to make. Yeah, I get that she wanted to re-paint the house when the husband was away, but why bother to tell the whole internet about it?

You know your partner doesn't want that wall colour in the house where YOU BOTH live, but you just do it anyway, because you really want it? What a bïtch. It doesn't matter that he didn't notice, the fact that she just said "I want it, so I'm gonna do it my way, screw him" is a seriously bad way to be in a relationship.

Wall paint can be one of those things that you don’t really notice unless you hate it. If it blends well, your brain is happy and just kinda sees the room as a whole, and not necessarily seeing the paint color by itself.

Domestic blindness. Mine arrived home, me covered in paint, ladder against garage which is now grey and used to be purple. What were you doing with the ladder he asks? He didn't work it out, until son arrived and said oh you painted the garage.

Marriage is compromise. We'd bought off the shelf cabinets for our kitchen remodel because the nicer ones weren't in budget. My husband cancelled the order before they could be delivered because, "I knew you'd be disappointed every time you walked in". I was planning on painting the walls a greige color until my husband pointed out that we've never had neutral walls and said, "We've always had a yellow kitchen. It wouldn't be the same". Compromise made and another moment of hubby knows best.

It's just paint. If he hates it when he notices they can change it. She hated the red, he said they could change it. I wouldn't be surprised if when he notices he admits it looks better than he imagined. So often paint colors are changed by the surrounding environment.

hes got a colour shade blindness maybe?

not as a prank, but ive been asking my husband to help me repaint the living room for over 3 years now. keeps saying he will.....but never does. its not a bad color or anything, im just ready for something bright and new. thinking of just painting it while the kids are in school and seeing if he notices. i dont even want a "weird color" or anything. its a dark beige right now and id like to go a shade or two lighter. literally that's it. i even offered to buy the paint supplies and have everything ready. all he would have to do is the tall stuff since i have severe balance issues and get dizzy on ladders.

My father is like this, and I presume that's where I got it from. I live across from the village hall and at some point last year, they painted the building baby blue. I did not notice until one of my neighbours complained that it's a hideous colour (it is honestly), and I cannot remember what colour it was before.

The solution is simple. Masking tape down the middle...

It's kinda funny that she's the audhd one when that was mentioned

My husband is like this. Not quite as bad. He wants a joint decision about every small thing to do with house decor; down to individual cushions but also procrastinates and never compromises. Before covid he used to go into tge office every day and I could slowly introduce the odd picture or cushion into the house until it was all finished. I pointed it out then and he really liked it. Years later some items are looking shabby and need updating but my husband now works from home. So I have to use the very occassional day he does go in to work for a mass sneaking in of sof furnishings 😆
