Am I the wrong one?

Yesterday I am working from home.

I see a junker car pull up in the culd de sac and drop off a red bag. It looked like one of those coupon bags that gest dropped off with flyers, etc. The guy only dropped one off at our house. I was a little curious but I assumed it was maybe the local pizza place that we order from a lot and maybe they were dropping off coupons?

So I go out and pick up the bag and see its from a law firm. I was confused at this point- like why would a law firm (injury lawyer) be dropping something off to only us? So I open the bag up and there is a flyer packet for the law firm and then an envelope addressed to DH.

So I am like WTH and open it up. It was really for SS who is a Jr.

So basically it was a generic traffic report.

Apparently SS had been in a car accident the day before.

The law firm is like an ambulance chaser and probably prints traffic reports then goes and drops them off with info on their firm to try and get some business.

The traffic report is obviously public record and something anyone can print off.

So I show it to DH that night when he get home. He acts like it no big deal. Which probably wasn't. SS had been in a traffic accident, there were no injuries, no big deal.

This morning I ask DH if he called SS and DH said no. Okay so I just assume its no big deal, which really it isn't and I toss the paperwork in the trash.

#1- SS hasnt lived with us in almost 2 years and has never updated his address. We get junk mail for him all the time and I toss it.

#2- I dont like holding junk and things out of place. To me this was junk mail.

So today I am at my nieces dance recital and DH tries to call. I send it to vm. Then he sends me a text, asking where is SS's paperwork.

So I proceed to tell him that I tossed it. It was just junk mail.

DH responds back with "what the fuck is wrong with you?"

So we go back and forth where basically he is telling me it wasn't mine to throw away. And I basically tell him to fuck off. SS needs to change his address and I wouldnt have to worry about his junk. And I tell him to just go on line and he can print off the traffic report. Simple.

Im so annoyed with DH.

When his kids have stolen from me I was told to "get over it. grow up. it's only material things." But when I throw away some freakin junk mail he asks what the fuck is wrong with me?

I didnt even think about it when I threw it away other then this is junk, DH isnt acting like its a big deal, so I am tossing it.

What the f--- is wrong with you?

...What the f--- is wrong with your son that he still uses my address? And don't you EVER text me like that again!...

If my DH ever spoke to me like that he would be 'gone'. So very 'gone'.

Seems like there is always a double standard for step-parents and bio kids.

Tell your DH to get over it. It was only papers.

I should clarify- DH said What the Hell is wrong with me not What the Fuck.

He spoke into his cell and it translated Hell to %$&*)&^.

With my cell it translates Fuck into the symbols but not Hell. For DH's it does Hell and Fuck. (hope that makes sense) I had just assumed he said Fuck.

When we talked about it I told him that I was pissed with what he said to me and he did clarify that he wouldn't have said Fuck. Even though Hell isn't that much better... but still better then Fuck.

Either way he is stupid for getting mad at me about it.
