Hello… I have been a mumsnet member for nearly six years and had many name changes. Anywho…
I have been with DP for seven years. It has been up and down. Neither of us is perfect but from my side I cannot deal with his snappy mood and the way he speaks to me (raised voices, shouting) when he feels frustrated by something. He is not always like this. He can be the opposite but I find myself feeling on edge and being hyper vigilant over everything to avoid frustrating him in any way.
I don’t understand because he is also this way towards his mum and sisters (but never his dad) and whilst they have acknowledged it is not ok, they have never addressed it with him, he tells me that as he was growing up that’s how his dad was and that’s how older men are and it’s just part of life and I should suck it up.
AIBU to think it is important to bring your kids up and teach them to speak to each other respectfully? In my opinion this is important but I am being made to feel that I am just being over dramatic 🙄 just wondering your thoughts AIBU? AIBOD (over dramatic) x
