Dp was taking dd to a party,he couldn't find SAT NAV so tried to remember the route.
Got lost so phoned me yellling down the phone, I gave him directions and he found it.

He has just phoned really angry as the party is tomorrow. He is on his way back and I feel like I am going to throw up as he will blame me and it will turn into a row.

PML. Sorry. So tragic because my DH is exactly like yours. Totally over reacts then wonders why i keep things hidden from him. (eg bank statement!). Its that whole guts drop moment right now for you, I know it well. I clean what ever room he's not in to avoid him. Amazing what you can find to do upstairs when he's down stairs! Such healthy marriages...!

it is very positive if he acknowledges it and wants to address it. My ex just refused to acknowledge it and kept downplaying his reaction - it was 'annoyance' never 'anger'. we went to three counsellors but its a waste of time if the other person doesn't want to work at it.

good luck, your sit sounds much more hopeful than mine ever was.

Thank God for estate agents.
(There's nothing quite right about that sentence, is there?)

Good luck T&P. I hope you do move soon and I hope you and your DH get back to an even keel shortly. I think you are due a lucky phase now!

THanks, he has only just acknowledged it and in part to enforced mumsnet reading.

He is trying.
