To think that my DH is a grumpy arrogant pig

God he is so getting on my nerves and making me feel like shit.

He just seems to wait until the children are in bed and then flips.

Constantly criticizing everything I do or don't do.

It seems just lately everytime he says something criticall i get this awful feeling in my stomach and feel utterly miserable.

Tonight he decided to put soda crystals in the washing machine to clean it out.
He went in to check it and it was leaking everywhere.

Cue him shouting wheres the mop and then calling me into the kitchen to ask how many times I clean the kitchen floor as it is filthy.
He even turns the fact that he has flooded the kitchen into me not cleaning it enough.
the kids have been in and out and we have been doing hte gardening.

then he comes in and says you are here for 6 hours everyday whilst the children areat school what do you do.
He says he is embarrassed at the state of the house and my family are coming to visit on the weekend.

Cue him going on about the oven and how often do i clean that,and i ask him how ofetn does he cook?
not often i always cook.

Anyone can make a cooker dirty he says.

it's just on and on about anything and everything.

How much am i sending on our DD's birthday.

He was talking to his mother on sunday on the phone and telling her i ws going over board and she was saying in her day you were lucky to get a piece of cake no party bags then.

Also DH's dad always said have the partys in the week whilst he was away working as he did'nt want a house full of kids.

DH is just becoming a miserable grumpy old git and i can't say or do anything right.

He's now gone upstairs muttering under his breath and just leaves me down here feeling crap about myself.

Oh god my dh has just turned 30 and has turned into the exact of what people have described their dh to be like. Well, he was kind of like it anyway but even more so since his birthday.

Arrgghhhhh, can't put up with it all the time!

My dh loads the dishwasher once a year and thinks its a major housework achievement and he should be knighted in doing so well. Goes on about it for days!!!

Haven't read whole thread but to me it sounds like he's suddenly resentful of the fact you are at home and he's at work and also about you spending money when he's the one that goes out to work and earns it. Unreasonable I know. Is there anything you perhaps don't know about. Is he in trouble at work, is he carrying the burden of any financial crisis? Is he right in thinking the house needs a more thorough tidy up rather than what you usually do each day. There are times when I take a good look at my house and realise that I need to get my finger out and do things that I don't normally do like cleaning skirting boards, cobwebs, decluttering etc.
