She said she “can’t stand his incompetence” and raged, “how hard is it to check a label?”.

She wrote: “We have been together years, known each other forever. Today, yet again, he washed my hand wash only underwear in the machine and ruined it.

“I have lost count of the number of times he has done this. It is just such a waste and will need replacing. We must have had this scenario every year for the past ten.”

She continued: “It's like that thing on the internet about the man whose wife left him over a cup left on the side, it’s the constant drip drip drip effect and never learning.

“I can't stand his incompetence anymore. How hard is it to check a label? And not mess with the stuff in the separate handwash only basket?! I am so angry.”

‘Sprinklestar’ later added her woes are not “lighthearted” as this “could well be the straw that breaks the camel’s back”.

One Mumsnet user said: “Do you make him pay to replace the ruined undies? I would! Might make him think.”

Another wrote: “If there are other issues then fair play but otherwise you really need to reassess your priorities. LTB over a few bits of underwear? Life is short - yes it's annoying and I'd be p***ed off but to actually split up?

"Come on now! If it is a symptom of a general disregard as opposed to a bit of dimwittedness then you either need to address it between you or call it a day.”

“If that is all you have to worry about then fairPlay....does he beat you....does he cheat on you....does he hurt you in anyway....if not then stop being such a diva and go to a supermarket and buy knickers like most of the human race that can be chucked in the weekly wash lol,” said another.

Meanwhile, a childless woman has sparked a furious backlash after questioning whether children really ‘cost that much’.

And, a mum started a debate about parents who don’t consider their kids’ names ‘for when they are adults’.
