I'm just having a little cry. DP came home drunk and just started being really unpleasant. First he slapped me really hard on the bum twice, I winced out loud both times and said that he'd really hurt me and told him not to do it again. He said sorry over and over.I said fine, don't keep going on about it.
Then a minute or two later he just went ballistic because I'd forgotten to turn the heating off- it's on a timer and I had put it on for an hour last night to try and get some clothes dry, forgotten to turn it off again so it had come on for an hour again tonight. Started calling me a f-ing idiot, f-ing mental, what the f is wrong with me etc. I asked him once to stop swearing at me and being so aggressive. That made him more mad, carried on ranting at me calling me a f-ing d-head etc.
I then went into the spare room without saying a word, when he asked why I said I was going to sleep there because he was being unpleasant. He then started ranting about how he'd "made a note of this" and why the f- was I turning this round to be his fault.
He's stopped now, fallen into a drunken sleep I think. I'm wide awake in the spare room, crying. He doesn't realise how horrible he is and will only give me a vague apology late on ithe next day. He doesn't remember how poisonous he's been. And then I wonder if I'm overreacting, is this just drunken bloke behaviour. I'm writing him an email detailing what he's done which I'm going to send him in the morning in an attempt to make him aware of what he's been like. I'm just feeling really sad.
