I'm working on myself and my health first before entering the dating world again as I'm currently unprepared.

I saw a show where a man in his 60s was in an arranged marriage with a young woman. After they tried for a child, he said "Go fetch me some pickled herrings".

I really, really hope a guy wrote this for satire, and a woman didn't have an actual husband send his wife on some "fetch" mission for food instead of getting it, himself.

Ladies tell me, has a man you were dating ever unironically talked to you like that?

"Fetch some herrings"? That is not acceptable for a 5 year old boy to talk like that to his mom, let alone some old dude to his "wife".

Please tell me men are not acting like this with girls they're dating. I'd expect to get smacked if I ever did that cause that's just unbelievable that a man can't be bothered to get his own plate and makes his spouse do it for him. Have you seen this in your personal lives, ladies?

Has a man you dated ever talked to you with such childish, disrespectful entitlement?
