Grumpy hubby

Hello. Anyone else out there with a grumpy hubby? How do you cope? Mine will go days without speaking to me because I did the slightest thing wrong. Thanks in advance. X

Giving you the silent treatment for a perceived slight is abusive. That’s not merely being grumpy. Unless he quickly changes his ways for good and grows up, you leave him.

That's not grumpy. The proper name for that is cruel.

This is a touch more than grumpy OP

Any children involved?

Are you pregnant, @Preggers101?

He sounds like a right arsehole. Sympathies Flowers

That’s horrible, and as others have said, it’s abusive.

I would be grumpy if you called me Hubby Yack
Does he call you wifey?

Have an adult conversation without these nauseating pronouns and see how it goes

Previously you said these episodes are ADHD shutdowns and he’s not in control of them. So what’s changed? www.mumsnet.com/talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/5121423-adhd-husbands-shutdowns?reply=136870245

Why are you calling him grumpy hubby? He's not a child. If he's giving you the silent treatment on a regular basis, I think that's abusive. If he can't discuss problems in a calm and reasonable way, like an adult, do you really want to spend the rest of your life with him?
