Full of shit apparently

So this afternoon 4 of us were out chatting and I was relaying a recent story which involved something my husband had done only he doesn't like it if he's the source of amusement, although he's more than happy to dish out plenty of ridicule! But then, in front of the other couple he announced how I'm full of shit. When I pulled him up on that later and made it clear I won't be spoken to like that, his response was to tell me to make sure I tell the truth then (er I had been but nicely turned around back onto me!) so I'm wondering what other wives would do or how they would respond if their husband announced publicly they were full of shit?! Apparently I'm over sensitive for not liking being spoken to like it!

Lots of strong women end up in abusive relationships. This guy sounds like a bit of a nightmare, and I agree a story about getting stuck in a bog isn't ridiculing him, talking about about weird thing that happened but it's funny in retrospect is clearly not the same abouts trying to humiliate him in front of his friends. The sucking his thumb when you told him he was being childish is utterly repulsive. Why are you with him?! Sounds like a douche canoe...

So which is it OP? You've told him before to pack it in or the relationships iffy and he's done it again so are you indeed going to end the relationship? Or is it a case of as You've said you give you take it ie if you can abuse me I'm going to abuse you right back. You need to make some decisions and ask yourself what you actually want. Obviously he felt attacked when you pitched in? Why is that? Why is he particularly sensitive to you laughing at his mishaps so much that he retorted the way he did. When did you both start thinking the worst of each other ? When did you stop being mates and start being touchy about "banter" with each other. It happened at some point, what point was it? Usually it starts with one of the other or both having their trust or securities tested.

He sounds horrid, and so does his dad. Get shot of all of them. Then go on the Freedom Programme and get your boundaries reset.
