To not like it when DP rolls his eyes at me

[Catmar]

I just think it's a disrespectful way of communicating. I don't expect him to agree with everything I say or do, I just think there are better ways to express yourself. It really bothers me but he says I'm oversensitive and that's my problem (rolling his eyes and sighing again)

You're not being unreasonable at all. There are more says to express how you feel about someone than words, and your partner constantly rolling his eyes at you speaks loud and clear in my opinion. It smacks of disregard and contempt. I fear he thinks very little of you.

OMG I'm feeling you. Yanbu. It drives me mad when dh sighs at everything I say. He says the same that I'm over sensitive but I think it's down right rude.

It’s pretty disrespectful which isn’t a good indicator for the future.

Yanbu, its a sign of contempt. Its also something that only teenagers do frequently, mature adults are supposed to communicate.

If you want to stoop to his level, tell him to use his words.

What’s that youth character in Harry Enfield? You know the spoiled spotty one that throws strips and is totally unreasonable. That’s your husband that is....
ha ha. As someone else said, tell him to use his words - and stop acting like a spotty teen

YANBU. My DH went through a phase of doing this (to me and dd) and it was so disrespectful and dismissive, it really upset me. He doesn't do it anymore thank goodness.

He's a disrespectful, patronising arse.
Next time he tells you you're too sensitive, tell him it's nothing to do with your entirely normal reaction, & everything to do with his discourteous & dismissive behaviour.

What he says next will be instructive.

Spank him.

Contempt is the biggest single predictor of divorce

Glad to see no one thinks I am bu. Thanks for the link @BitOfFun - interesting 🤔

Ah! I was looking for that link Bitoffun, glad you were able to provide it.

Yep, contempt. Pretty much the worst reaction so yanbu.

Awful. A sign of disrespect and contempt. I had an evil boss that used to do it to me when I was junior and a senior female partner told her it was unacceptable behaviour.
