Why does he get so angry with me?

My boyfriend always accuses me of being "in a mood" after a disagreement, when it's him that is in one.

How can I productively respond to this?
How do I get over him repeating what I'm saying and pushing the fault on me?

If he's rude to me or gives me a dirty look, I'll quite often remove myself from the situation (like to another room or something) and am over it quickly. I'll then return my normal bubbly self!

Sometimes he'll ignore me and pretend I don't exist or give me one word answers, then later (or the next morning in some cases!) say "are you over your mood yet?". I'll respond with "What do you mean?" or "What mood?" or "I'm not in a mood?" and he gets angry with me...

If we progress with the conversation, I might say "Why didn't you acknowledge me all day?" and he will respond"Because you didn't acknowledge me all day".
So basically shifts all the blame on me Sad

How do I avoid this "no, you're in a mood" ... "no you're the one who's ignoring me" stance!

Thank you

To be fair to him, he's come home and is cooking me a dinner as we speak

Big deal - Not.

He is way too much hard work. Let him find somewhere else to live with his 2 kids.

To be honest I was bored reading about him in your opening and subsequent posts. Do you not struggle to feel respect or attraction for a man as silly and sulky and disrespectful as he is?

Moods, sulks, 1 word answers, ignoring😴 I will never understand what is appealing about men who are an entire pain in the arse
