Why do husbands act like cxnts

Had a disagreement with my husband. Who is in the wrong - he seems to think it's all my fault.

Some lady made a joke with her colleague and I heard it and laughed. An he came over to speak - but was really trying to talk to my husband. Even to the point to touch his shoulder to get his attention.

He turns to me and said why did you have to laugh she came over and spoke to me. Basically blaming me and he was really pissed off at me (his ocd and doesn't like people on his personal space)

Got out of the shop and because I said it's not my fault she touched you and spoke to you, he told me to shut up and then threatens to leave me in the car park (we were a 3 mile drive from home and I am 6 weeks pregnant), he turned really nasty. He proceeds to tell me to not talk to anyone else in the future and don't make eye contact with strangers. He said I ruined our shopping trip,

I am so pissed off at him for blaming me, I told him if you felt uncomfortable you should have said something to her. I actually think I hate him (maybe it's heightened emotions or hormones) it's like walking on egg shells around him and I'm fucking sick of it.

He's abusive and controlling and I wouldn't have a baby with him.

Most men aren't cunts. Yours is.

run now. Far. And fast. He isnt normal. This is appallingly controlling. Abuse frequently starts in pregnancy.

husband‘s arent like this, abusers are.

leave before you get stuck for years.

I'm sorry but that's not a normal interaction and his behaviour towards you is shocking. It obviously wasn't your fault someone tried to talk to him regardless of whether you'd laughed at something you heard said. I think you need to think seriously whether you want to stay with someone who can threaten to leave you 3 miles away from home even if you weren't pregnant.

What would you say to a pregnant friend if she told you this story?

This isn't typical husband behaviour lovely. It's abusive partner behaviour.
