Am I in the wrong

[muvaa]

He's giving me the silent treatment because last night as we were leaving MIL's house with our baby his friend put his arm out for a side hug and I gave the side hug, he was pissed since then and is just being horrible and now I feel bad about it.

He's your classic jealous, insecure man who thinks you're his possession. Please don't start tip toeing round him and changing your (perfectly normal, friendly) behaviour to appease him.

You can't co parent if he's silent so I assume he's ignoring his baby as well? Sorry he sounds like an immature prat

It’s completely and utterly up to you, whether you want physical contact with someone or not. No one should be forced to hug or anything they don’t want to do. My OH would be told to f**k right off if he tried to enforce something on me like this

Silent treatment = arsehole
And he sounds controlling as fuck. You did nothing wrong.

No you are not wrong. Is this jealousy, covid related or something else? Do you often get the silent treatment?

Of he has covid concerns fair enough.

The silent treatment however is abusive. Designed to make you do what he wants in future or you’ll get more ‘punishment’ with silent treatment.

Is he abusive in other ways? Funny about you talking to male friends or neighbours or even relatives? Likes things done a certain way? Lovely kind guy but can turn in a heartbeat into a silent or frightening monster because you did something he doesn’t like?

I can't go clubbing or wear what I want. I can't show my legs or show cleavage. Most shorts are 'too short'. Male friends are out the question, I had a job interview the other day and decided to put makeup on and he had a bad comment about it. He verbally abuses me but tells me to control my emotions when it makes me upset. I somehow have no friends and he has a negative comment about everyone which I guess drove me away from them. I've been with him for 5 years and it's just so hard to get the courage to leave. I'm showing clear signs of depression, not being able to get much done and he makes me feel worse for it by saying hurtful things
