Why is it?

Does your husband do this to you? My husband will rant and rave at me over the smallest of things which I normally don’t even have any control over and usually results in him hanging up on me or storming out of a room and yet I am expected to just get over it. But this morning I called him at 7:40am as I was getting off work to make sure that the kids were awake and dressed for school. They were all still in bed. I asked him why they weren’t awake. Why weren’t they dressed? He said he thought I did all of that. They catch the bus at 8:10. How are they going to be ready? Now, not once did I raise my voice. I was talking to him as I was carrying two armful loads of stuff to my car while also trying to wrestle my keys out of my pocket. I hung up with him quickly, but not before saying, “Ok, please get them up and I’ll be home in 5 minutes.” Then I hung up.

When I got in the door I made sure the girls were indeed getting ready for school. They were. I walked into my bedroom and my hubby was laying in bed. I ever so sweetly said, “Good morning baby. How are you? Did you sleep well?” I got no response. Again I asked him how he was. I then got a guilt trip about how I screamed at him over the phone and ruined his morning because I gave him a screaming wake up call.

Ok where was I during this exchange?

I explained to him that I did not yell at him, I was not mad at him, I did not scream at him. I was just concerned because the kids were not awake yet. That wasn’t good enough. Holy hell.

You know, this has happened more and more lately. He thinks I am yelling at him, when I absolutely am not. Is it me? He is still walking around and sulking. Do any of your husbands have a bad case of PMS? Shoot, I don’t even get it as bad as him.
