can i be your wife too

to be fair to OP, I have only seen this done by women, too.

When you have to explain to an adult woman that leaving the heater on max is like opening the faucet in the sink, and leaving the house, maybe it’s not a surprise that it causes her to have a nervous breakdown. (since if she was a rational thinker, she wouldn’t be doing it in the first place)

Still weird that I have never seen this done by a man.

it shouldn’t be a thing, but it is
