His Wife Won’t Get Out Of His Way When He’s In A Hurry, So He Finally Lost His Cool
by Matthew Gilligan
As someone who worked a lot of years in kitchens and on food trucks, I can sympathize with the guy you’re about to hear from…
Because when someone won’t GET THE HELL out of your way, it can drive you insane.
Did he go too far?
Let’s see what the heck is going on here…
AITA for telling my wife to please get the hell out of my way?
“I was raised to always be helpful and polite. I like to hold the door open for people, as an example.
I always try to treat my wife with respect. She is a good person but even if she weren’t I would.
She has been trying to be like me lately. And it’s driving me nuts.
This is getting frustrating.
She cannot understand the Time Cop rule that two bits of matter cannot occupy the same space.
She will hold the door for me then stand in the way. When I hold the door for her I stand to the side so she can pass. She cannot seem to get this concept.
I have had to start traveling for work and she drives me to the airport. I could Uber but she says she likes the drive.
We always stop for breakfast on the way so it’s a way for us to sneak in one more date before I’m gone for a while.
So I will have my backpack on and my rolling luggage in my hand. She will open the door go through and hold the storm door. But she will fully stand in the way.
Hmmm…
I have explained the concept of standing to the side. I’ve asked her to please just go through and I will deal. I’ve tried leaving before her so I can deal.
I’ve even tried just standing inches away as she holds the door and I cannot move forward. Nothing works.
I was in a hurry yesterday because my flight was changed. We could still stop for breakfast but we didn’t have much leeway.
Move it!
And she would not get out of the way. I lost my cool and asked her to please get the hell out of the way because I needed to get to the car.
She is mad at me and has brought up my rudeness at both our calls since she dropped me off.
I think that I have been very patient and she should have taken the hint before now.”

Move it or lose it!
This would drive me nuts.
