DH embarrassed by my sensitivity

1000 replies

MarysLittleLamb · 26/02/2018 12:52

I get very moved by certain types of art and music, so much so that I occasionally cry. Last year we went to the Louvre and I ended up silently weeping at a number of art works. When we got out of the gallery DH admitted that he finds it all a bit over the top and unnecessary - as if I do it on purpose!

Anyway we've just got back from Rome. I became a little overwhelmed in the coliseum when I thought about the violence and death that had taken place there. DH said I was the only one in the entire place crying and he was fed up with it. I explained that I don't do it on purpose, it just gets to me.

We went to the Sistine Chappell the day after and I ended up screaming at the MichaelAngelo. A number of tourists tried to console me but DH just walked off muttering "for fucks sake". I felt so stupid. When we got out DH had a massive rant at me about how I spoil everything for him and he often wishes he was with someone normal who could visit places without making a scene. He also declared that he no longer enjoys travelling with me. I'm gutted because travel is the main thing we do together. AIBU to think I can't change who I am or should I??

I’m not sure it is that one actually @Rainbunny.

I’m sure it was a lot longer ago and went on and on. The step mother was repeatedly ringing the OP and turning up at her house demanding their (her son’s) share of the money.

It was quite tense!

Piers Morgan must inherently represent a supreme form of sublime, indescribable beauty, then - considering how many people can't help but scream at him whenever they see him on the telly....

This never gets old 😂

Rainbunny · 27/12/2018 14:01

Holidayshopping - I agree, I read through the one I found a bit more and it seems a less extreme situation. Now I REALLY want to read this thread!

lavalampoon · 27/12/2018 14:05

The well known wall in Jerusalem might cause some problems for OP

WonderTweek · 27/12/2018 14:06

Haha! It's back! 😂😂

Hannahmates · 27/12/2018 14:18

Scream? That seems completely unnecessary. Sorry but I am with your DH here. Who would want to travel with someone so over the top like you?

Itisnearlybedtimeyet · 27/12/2018 14:43

Every time this thread returns it really brightens up my day 😂

Do you have a reason for wanting to humiliate your husband? Something you cannot acknowledge and this is your secret revenge? If so it's genius...Maybe the Uffizi next?
