II just need some other perspectives....

Me and DH keep having disagreements that seem to turn into huge rows.

An example today... I had spent all evening bathing the kids and putting them to bed. DH has a bit of a bad back so I didn't ask for any help. But I came downstairs and the house was a complete mess.

Anyway started tidying up and DH came in to help, he was whistling and it was getting on my nerves so I said lightly darling that whistling is really annoying....

He flipped out said I was so rude and refused to help tidy up and has sat in a mood all night not talking to me and slamming doors.

Now I do know that I was probably in the wrong to tell him to stop whistling but I did do it as nicely as possible and I really don't think it deserves the reaction he had to it.

This is just one example of the small blow ups we've had. They are hard to explain but I'm just so fed up of having arguments over nothing and I feel like we are just not getting on at all. He thinks I'm really moody and I think he's overreacting.

Is this just normal arguments for married couples??

I'd say this is built up, not dealt with resentment over a lot of unspoken factors. Instead of maybe discussing and fronting the real issues, you guys blow up over the small stuff ?
