Is this acceptable?

[mylittlepuppy]

When dh and i were havong a row recently, it got quite heated and he started to "mock" what i was saying. Basically repeating my words and trying to use the same tone of voice. I found it very intimidating and distressing. My sister was really shocked and said it shows a complete lack of respect ofr me. I got realy upset and cried and he just went out,leaving me crying

Hi frazzled!

i just can't help myself it seems!

That's a sadly suspicious mind you have. Tis a sad thing.

Don't ask me how I recognise one...

Well, MLP, assuming you are not who I thought you might be, I would suggest that you should both apologise to each other. What you both did, mocking you and calling him names, showed a lack of respect for each other. If it is 'likely' that you are going to split up and he thinks it is because you want to leave him, I am not surprised he left you crying. Maybe he was also upset by what had happened and wasn't in the right frame of mind to comfort you when he felt that he also deserved an apology from you.

Also, it is his choice whether he sends his mum a card for mother's day. If you felt so strongly, maybe you should have sent her one. As for him disrespecting you by getting you a mopthers day card last year with Mum on the front, what is so wrong with that? He was buying it on behalf of your child. If that is the biggest sign of disrespect he has shown you, then tbh, I am not surprised he mocked you during your recent argument!

Frazzled, do you think our 'friend' has succesfully cloned herself?

Hope not!

BTW OP, I am still trying to work out what the problem is with a Mum card on Mother's Day? Or have we misunderstood?

You know, when two people argue, both of them often say and do unpleasant things. Mocking you is not exactly the biggest deal in the world, particularly if you were calling him unpleasant names - though it depends what the argument was about I suppose. And now you say you want to split up and have your eye on another man anyway - it's not that surprising that your partner is not keen on being nice to you. It sounds like you probably would be able to treat each other better if you did split up

I think you possibly need a large dose of grip up.

sayithowitis, im with you on this one

So if we're right and this is more of the same (again and again and AGAIN), anyone care to join the sweepstake on how long it'll take for OP to namechange and post a new thread?

I'm saying two days...

by this evening ...

What he did was abusive and horrid. imo you should leave him if iy scared you.

I bet on Thursday.! Or just until she can think of a new name and another slant on what is becoming an old, old tale!

Hey, we were all wrong! Who woulda thunk it?
