Abit of background we live together have to children under two, if there is ever a little problem and I try and talk it out he will either put his headphones in and turn up the volume so he can't hear me or will go off on one claiming I'm starting arguments I'm sick of this everyday he will ignore me I feel like I have so much to say to him but he will not listen to me I have to turn the TV and xbox off at the wall to get a response if he's at work and I say something wrong that's it I'm blocked the rest of the day has anyone else been in this situation it is so frustrating I'm loosing my mind here it's just complete arrogance but he will be fine to game hours on end with conversations flowing am I wrong to just want some Communication I have tried to speak to him over and over and over about how it makes me feel and surely relationships née communication he's making me feel like I'm the one in the wrong here ? Anyone in similar situation

You need to ask yourself if you can live this way , from now on?
He isn't going to change. The only thing that will change is wether or not you accept it.
He is being immature, uncooperative, and is going to teach your kids that this is ok
too.

He's shown you who he is, he's shown you what he thinks of you, he's shown you how much you matter to him.

What more is there to think about? Why are you with this man?

There isn't really anything more to say than what the previous two posts have said. He's not going to change. I couldn't live like that.

SandyY2K · 20/03/2019 13:16

Does he ask for your advice?

If not, don't give it. If there are things he does that you can't live with or that significantly impact you/your DC, then you need to decide if you can continue in the relationship.

Advice doesn't have to be taken and he's made it very clear he doesn't want to hear what you have to say.

My question to you is why do you continue giving unwanted advice?

AttilaTheMeerkat · 20/03/2019 13:18

Why are you with him at all?. Love does not conquer all here. This is who he is and he is an uncooperative and petulent manchild.

My thoughts too. Nothing worse than being constantly talked at

LeesPostersAreInFrames · 20/03/2019 18:38

She's not giving unwanted advice. She's trying to resolve very minor conflicts with a guy who sticks his fingers in his ears and goes lalala. She's asking MN for advice. There a missing comma in the title.

Quietly ignore him back. Don't try to get his attention. Don't do anything for him. Work out your options from here on, bearing in mind that you can do nothing to change him.

RiversDisguise · 20/03/2019 18:46

Sack him off. That's just fucking rude.

PicsInRed · 20/03/2019 19:00

He holds you in utter contempt.
He wants you to know that, feel that, absorb it, then become it.

You need to get clear of him or your spirit and personality will chipped away until there's nothing left.

I'm sorry. Flowers

Get rid. Its mental abuse and it won't change. Horrible horrible bullying tactic.

NotTheFordType · 21/03/2019 22:13

What would happen if you overpowred him physically like he's doing to you?
