DH's mood dependant on mine

[victoriascrumptious]

This is going to sound really childish BUT

Every now and again I have bad days; you know the sort-overtired, depressed, bored, kids driving me insane. I wait with increasing desperation for dh to get home so I can have a break. He'll phone me at some point and ask how my day is and if i'm having a bad day he'll turn up home in a stinker of a fuge. It happens every time. I then find his presence even more depressing and want him to go away. Same when i'm sick. He's only really happy when I am.

He's lovely in all other ways
Can anyone relate?

Yes sadly I can. Sometimes a hug is all that it would take or a chance to have a rant. But whatever mood I am in (good or bad) he seems to have to not just be the same but go on step further IYSWIM.
Told him today we need to see relate, his response was that we would go out for a family meal this week
Sorry no advice just sympathy

My Dh is great in many ways too - the emotional side tho he is absolutely shit.
TRying to decide at the moment if it is something I can live with and compromise on or .... or.....?

Ex used to be like that, I lost count of the times I explained to him that if he found me in an 'off mood' (im not going to say bad mood as It was just usually me being a tad quiet) he would be better off taking the kids for an hour to the park, or letting me lay down with a book for a while. Or just givng me a hug and trying to make me feel better. Ditto when I was will.

DId he listen? Did he buggery, one of the many reasons he is now ex.
