Miley Wolfe2 months agoI love my husband, but lately, I've been feeling frustrated with his behavior. For the past week, he's been in a hostile mood, and it's really starting to affect me. Our kids were on Christmas break, so there was no school. Our daughter spent most of the break at her sister’s house, and our son stayed with my parents for a week. When he came back, my husband started snapping at me for no reason. I tried to talk to him, but all he said was that he needed a break. I reminded him that he already had a break when the kids were away, but he insisted he needed a longer one. I get that our son can be a handful, but my husband’s response just feels a bit much. Yesterday, I came home from work, and as soon as I opened the door, my husband started in on me without any explanation. I was confused and asked why he was upset. He then accused me of not being there for him like he is for me, calling me unfit because I work. I stopped him and said, “You need to be careful with what you say, because we could both end up saying hurtful things.” He responded that he didn’t care, claiming that what he said was the truth. That’s when I told him, “If you want the truth, here it is: You think you can live off someone else and call me unfit? You’re too lazy to get a job, but you sit there calling me names? And the truth is, you think you’re always right and you refuse to listen to anyone, even our therapist, and you never take the tools that are offered. So don’t sit there and call me names, expecting me to just take it.” He didn’t say anything after that. This morning, it happened again. He started in on me because I had to go to work, and I asked, “Is it because I have to work? If that’s the problem, then you get a damn job, and I’ll stay home.” Then I left.131
