Rude husband

I find my husband so rude.

We are making a plan to take our young kids away next weekend. I was just talking through what we might do on one of the days and he started gazing out of the window because he saw a fucking squirrel. He is often like this. If I start saying something he will interrupt, often second guessing what I am trying to say (incorrectly).

I wasn't droning on either. I'd said about two sentences.

I really starting to dislike him intensely.

@ThisLoftyHam she said two sentences about timings for the next day to accommodate something HE asked for but couldn't be arsed to actually do the logistics for. But she's the one who has to flag up "important" conversation and avoid nagging. Your post reminds me of those 1950s handbooks for wives about looking pretty when your husband gets home and not to bother him with domestic details. Men can't possibly be expected to do the most simple thing of listening to (in this case) short, logistical info that HE requested? Christ.

Please ignore some MN comments, you do have a valid concern.

I wonder if you are a super planner and if you always insist on doing things your way?

I could be barking at the wrong tree here. I am just trying to interpret your husband's behaviour

My husband often diverts his attention to our dog as soon as I start speaking, and despite discussing this pattern continues. They just don't want to engage. I give him his own medicine. When I do he says I am rude ! I don't care tbh !
