Husband called me miserable and boring before storming off

Lay in bed this morning and he rolled over and put his arm round me and just held my boob.

I've never liked this, I don't know why but I just don't like them messed with so I pushed his hand off and said "don't". I pushed his hand down to my hip though so was obviously still happy to have a cuddle just not that.

Anyway, he rolled back off obviously in a huff and when I asked if he was seriously in a mood because I wouldn't let him hold my boob he said "yes because you're fucking miserable and boring" and stormed off downstairs where he's now in a mood STILL.

Like wtf? It's almost funny it's so ridiculous? I've obviously married a huge man child?

Disclaimer: I am not miserable and boring, he is if either of us are those things, we have sex quite a lot but I'm on my period right now which he knows!

Twat. What a big man baby-very unattractive. I can’t stand it when any kind of contact is seen as an invitation to sex. YRNBU

So he thinks that your body should be constantly available to him? We are entitled to body autonomy. Even if we like presumed consent, there's times when we don't want to be touched (especially when hormones are raging) and we have the right to say no.
You need to have it out with him.

What an idiot he is, leave him to get over himself and go about your day.

Topseyt · 02/01/2022 10:34

Leave him to stew. What an arse!! You are entitled to bodily autonomy.

Stompythedinosaur · 02/01/2022 10:39

Yuck, how unattractive. No man is entitles to use your body for their own kicks by doing something you dislike, and it is revolting that he wants to.

He sounds immature and miserable. Just ignore his strop and get on with your own stuff. Don’t fall into the trap of trying to explain yourself to resolve the situation. He needs to explain himself to you.

He's sulking because he was angling for a shag.

Is he like this a lot?

Lookonbright · 02/01/2022 10:48

He is obviously trying to make you feel bad about yourself, watch out he will drip feed this every so often to make you feel shit about yourself. Don’t stand for it!

CaptSkippy · 02/01/2022 11:07

OP, does he do this often or is this new behavior?

TheCatterall · 02/01/2022 13:31

Randomly start holding his ear or nose. Get huffy when he asks you to stop… pfft. Manchild! Hmm

Dillydollydingdong · 02/01/2022 13:48

My dp does this and I love it. But if I didn't like it, he'd stop immediately without sulking.

thepeopleversuswork · 02/01/2022 13:51

Just yuck. Does he do this a lot? Does he have redeeming qualities? I just couldn't fancy someone who sulked because he couldn't have sex.

PrincessNutella · 02/01/2022 14:38

Miserable and boring? I think it's pretty bold to marry an eight year old, so my hat's off to you, OP!! Sorry he's having a tantrum, though.

Luredbyapomegranate · 02/01/2022 14:50

Let him sulk for today.

Tomorrow sit him down and explain that this is genuinely invasive and unacceptable behaviour - if he wants to be a decent guy, he needs to stop doing it. You shouldn’t need to but apparently you do.
