I do not like to share.
I know that this is an important skill to teach and to learn, and I make sure my kids share, but I’m not a fan. I’m not an only child, so I don’t really know where it comes from, but I do not like to share.
My whole theory is, if you wanted some of my food, then you should have gotten it too. If you wanted a sip, get a glass. If you were cold, get a blanket. It’s not like I don’t have plenty in my house to go around.
I’ve had to ease up on my “sharing issues” since I’ve been married and had kids. I swear it’s in the male DNA that makes them want whatever I have. Seriously? What’s mine is MINE!
Why do the men in my life always want what I have? I’m the only girl in the house (including the dog and cat). Let me have my own things! I don’t try to take their things…what’s mine is MINE!
For example, the covers. This is something that all married couples quarrel about…someone is clearly the “cover hog” in the relationship. In mine, it’s my husband all the way. Maybe it’s because he’s stronger than me, but I always find myself in a struggle to keep under the covers.
Another prime example is the remote. Seriously. I could be sitting all comfy on the couch watching one of my Real Housewives or cooking shows with no one around. All of a sudden, my husband plops down, grabs the remote and changes the channel! Imagine if I did that to him…
My BIGGEST pet peeve is when he steals my snacks! Any snack I have every male in my house wants a piece of it. GO GET YOUR OWN! Between my chips, french fries and my latest obsession NEW Skinny Cow Chocolately Dipped Ice Cream Sandwiches.
Imagine creamy vanilla ice cream sandwiched between two chocolate wafers and veiled in a rich, chocolatey coating…ahhhh HEAVEN! Now imagine going to the freezer for this chocolately bliss and finding the empty box. That is what I face. It’s coming to the point where I have to hide out like a fugitive when everyone else is not in the room to enjoy my Skinny Cow!

Reach for vanilla bean bliss with vanilla ice cream sandwiched between two chocolate wafers and veiled in a rich, chocolatey coating.
Honestly, I don’t blame my husband (or my kids for that matter) for wanting my Skinny Cow Chocolately Dipped Ice Cream Sandwiches. I guess they aren’t just for women, they can be an indulgence for all. I mean, creamy ice cream with chocolate wafers fully dipped in a thick, velvety, chocolatey coating….I have to go get one now!
Thankfully, I’m not the only woman who has to go through the constant stealing sharing of my things. A new study by Skinny Cow shows the various ways men “borrow” from women.
Skinny Cow Chocolately Dipped Ice Cream Sandwiches comes in 3 delicious flavors: Vanilla Bean Dream, Ultimate Chocolate and Creamy Caramel. Find a store near you.
Moral of the story: keep more than one box of Skinny Cow Chocolately Dipped Ice Cream Sandwiches in your freezer so you don’t have to share!

this resonates with me so much. I often joke to the husband I never understood my own mom until I had a childshe would hoard certain snacks and things for herself and I thought she was a poor sharer 🙂
It’s really pretty sad…
My husband used to tell me “I’m not a sweets kinda guy.” when we first met. LIAR! 🙂
I can totally relate my husband is always trying to hog the covers and steal my treats but I getting this skinny cow and hiding it from him!!
There’s something to be said for “private” treats! Or just buy two boxes so you always have some!
This is so funny! I have two boys, and my oldest is always stealing my things! My flip flops, my sweatshirts, my workout gear. I guess I should be flattered that my son thinks I’m cool enough to take my things, but still. What’s MINE IS MINE!
Ha ha!! Although he’ll probably never tell you that you’re cool! 🙂
With my husband it’s bed space. He says it is because he wants to be close to me, but my view is that he is taking up 3/4 of the bed. A bigger bed didn’t help!
Mine too! And when I ask him to move over, he says he’s falling off! I’m thinking of putting two kings together! 😉
when it comes to ice cream, I will not share wither. Haha.
Something special about ice cream….
LOL I can totally relate to this. Every time I buy snacks my husband eats the ENITRE BAG! It drives me nuts! I actually don’t mind sharing but he doesn’t leave me any! ha! I think he needs to read this
Why don’t they leave any behind? My favorite is when the empty box is put back in its place. Gets me every time!
