A 'darling husband' has come under fire on Mumsnet after eating his wife's birthday gift.
The mum took to social media forum 'Mumsnet' to ask if she was being unreasonable over her rage and choice not to share her chocolate.
While she admitted she doesn't mind sharing some of her chocolate -he gifted her- she reveals she isn't often left with much after her husbands scoffs the majority.

We're often told that 'sharing is caring', but the poster questions, where's the line?
Remaining anonymous, she wrote: "It was my birthday earlier this week and as part of my gifts DH [darling husband] gave me a box of nice chocolates.
"I opened them yesterday to have one with our post-lunch coffee (both WFH) and offered him one.
"He then asked for another, and another, while I only had one, trying to savour them.
"Then after dinner, he asked for more! I said one each and he got annoyed, saying it was offensive that I wouldn’t share with him. Am I being unreasonable to not want to share my birthday chocolates like this?
"I would always offer him one of anything I’m eating but he then takes more and more, so inevitably I end up with about one-third of the treats. Since he specifically bought them for me for my birthday, I think I should be able to say no. Or am I being massively petty?"
She added at the end: "(Mostly lighthearted, as I realise this is a microscopic problem in the wider context)".
Most of the users rallied around her, calling her husband 'selfish', with some suggesting he should buy his own.
One replied: "Nice gift he bought.....FOR HIMSELF!"
Another said in support: "You are welcome to share things whenever and with whoever you like, you should never feel compelled to give things away though.
"Offering a chocolate when you have one so you can enjoy them together, but he crossed the line when he asked for more (especially as you weren't having more too). Sharing is not a response to a demand, it must be an offer."
A third fumed: "Give him the box. The whole box. Don't eat any more if them yourself. Then ask him if he liked your birthday chocolates.
"He's a greedy, selfish man-child.
"Sometimes you have to play childish with childish. So cut off your nose to spite your face and see what his reaction is. But mostly, he is selfish and doesn't seem to mind showing it."
Another suggested she fights back: "Have you not got any siblings? Did your sibling never make eye contact with you and lick all of the (insert rare treat of choice) as a child? He's gone low, you go lower."
However others suggested that the woman simply had to learn how to share.
"Sorry I had to giggle with this one. Stop being so precious with a box of chocolates and just enjoy sharing. Sharing is caring and all that", one posted.
"Do you not like your husband or something? Why can’t he have the chocolates he’s enjoying just because their your ‘bday’ ones? Are you 5?" Another hit back.
One interjected: "If it’s food then yeah! Come on they’re chocolates imagine telling a grown man he can’t have another one cos they’re yours, when he was obviously enjoying them… him being called a greedy selfish man by other people is such an overreaction."
