I'm fed up of my husband saying one thing and meaning another, final straw tonight.

I think I'm perimenopausal and have, amongst other symptoms, been struggling with really bad fatigue at certain times during my cycle. Talked about this and he insisted I go to the GP, I didn't go...can't see what can be done at this point as it's so early on.

Anyways, OH suggested I get an early night to get a decent night's sleep (he's very good at suggesting at what I 'need' to do and not do but I appreciate the thought of a full 8 hours!), then goes in a big man-strop because he claims there's always something that gets in the way of us having sex/intimacy. I've not even said anything back, I've had enough now of him doing things like that.

Why suggest I go to sleep early and turn it around to make me feel like shit for doing something he suggested? If I say anything it'll end up in him saying 'he's allowed to feel that way and that's that'.

He's actually made a real effort recently to be nicer but this has just wound me up.

Assume he wanted you to go to bed earlier so he could have sex sooner.

He specifically said I should go to sleep, u said what about spending time together etc and he reiterated sleep....it's like living with the riddler sometimes

That is really confusing. And annoying!
