Riotgrrrl ~ you're right - usually they can't TAKE it. My ex used to "cut me down" all the time with digs like that, and when I turned the tables on HIM, Oh boy did he get mad! He could dish it out, but he sure couldn't take it!
I like the dime idea too. I'll bet that after awhile of doing that, she'll have enough money to buy herself a nice dress! LOL I wish I had thought of that, cause my ex would do it every day, many times a day.
I'm sorry this is happening to you, Lost. You don't deserve it! Don't let him have your meals if he acts like a baby next time. Tell him to go sit in the corner, and suck his thumb!
God bless and please take care. Hugs, Lee
