Hi ladies.
How well can you raise small problems with your dh?
Even the smallest thing upset my dh, as he feels critizised. Yesterday i raised a small thing, please help me with conversation with dc during dinner time, as he always just eat and never say more than 2 sentences, and sometimes i dont feel like being the one keeping concersation going. He got upset, went to bed with headache at 8 (!!) And today sitting in garden with phone since he got up.
I went to talk, he was very angry of the way i approached it, rhink i was going on and on, (i tried to explain, as he didnt agree and i wanted to tell my side) and he loose respect for me, as i always nag him for not interacting with dc.
He is a wonderfull janitor, does a lot practical, but is almost totally absent from dc lives. He usually work outside until evening, then he come in to spend time with me. Which is ok, if he made an efford with them, when he IS present.
Kids are now 14 and 12 and use to it. But i feel he want a family, as long as he doesnt have to deal with it.
Any advise for me dealing with the man on the beanch, feeling sorry for himself? I also feel sorry for myself.
