To ask how to get my husband to stop singing.

My husband is a very nice person. (He’s also bloody annoying a lot of the time, and I’m sure I am too.) About 18 months ago he took up the guitar as a hobby. I’m glad he has a hobby but he plays it about 4 hours a day all round the house, not very well but bearable. Worse, he sings along and he has a terrible out of tune singing voice. He also has ADHD and Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria so gets really upset at any suggestion that he can’t sing as he really likes music. It’s torture. I am quite musical, can sing well and have recently taken up a new instrument but I practise for an hour a day in a room with a closed door. He is driving me potty. How do I deal with this without hurting his feelings, I’m worried one day I’m going to snap and it will lead to a huge row and he’ll be really hurt.

Why is it ok to talk about ND people in the way we have been talked about on this thread?

I don't understand.

They invariably do as they think it's ok, and for some reason, MN seems to think it's ok too. We appear to either piss people off and / or they think we don't matter.

And so we feel like shit and we hide away. Of course the same people like to pull us apart for doing that too.
