I am right to be annoyed at him aren't I?
Back story. I recently became quite disabled. (Mobility issues mostly.)
Dh has been working hard keeping our business going and ferrying me to dr appointments and what not. Stressful time for both of us.
Money is tight and there was talk (from him) of not doing Christmas as he didn't think we could afford to. We don't do extravagant. Never have.
He then started to speak about an item he really wants for Christmas that costs about £350. Which is more than the total I spend on presents for the family.. We had "words" about it. When he realised him saying we couldn't afford Christmas meant for him too, he back tracked and said we could still host but get folks to bring something.
He also suggested pushed me to askI ask (my) family to give him money towards the item he wants. I said no. It sounds really cheeky, especially as we're not giving great presents this year. He said he was fed up getting stuff he didn't want or need and would like money so he can save up for his item. I said maybe I'd suggest a gift voucher for the shop if they were stuck for ideas. No one asked for advice on what to get him this year.
He's now being a huffy shite and going on and on about why I didn't ask family. Even saying I did it out of spite.
He also says he's going to keep going on about it as punishment.
The item he wants is for a hobby of his.
He's on holiday for the next 2 weeks and I don't think we'll both survive it!
What can I do to get him to shut up about it and stop acting like a spoilt child?
