Raise your hand if your husband has turned into a complete jerk! I usually have a fun, supportive, even-tempered husband, but for about 2 weeks he has been extremely edgy, short-tempered, and all sorts of moody (and lots of "tone"). I am just completely shocked and caught off guard by his behaviour, I am very very hurt and don't know what to do. I am afraid to say or do anything, fearing I will "set him off". It really seems like his @sshole switch was just turned on high.
Anyone else? Raise your hand!
Re: Raise your hand if...
raises hand.
he doesn't like the fact he has to get stuff done to make room for baby.
he's being a turd.
"Wearing his BING CROSBY clothes and crooning...buuuh buuh buuuh"
Mine is like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. It's crazy.
Kinda along the lines of this. I thought he'd be more ready to help out and i have to ask him to help out with the nursery and even then sometimes i get a no...and then angry prego comes out...i get my way in the end.
He is probably starting to get a little stressed about the upcoming arrival of your LO. Still, that isn't a good excuse.
Have you tried talking to him? If so, what did he say?
Yes, I have tried talking to him. I try to approach him when he's in a good mood and we have plenty of time to talk. He usually just gets defensive and says it's my fault since I'm hormonal. (Yes, I am hormonal, but I haven't been a b!tch to him to make him react in such a drastic way.) He will literally be fine minute, and then REALLY NOT fine the next. It also seems like he needs to disagree, put down, or oppose any and every thing that comes out of my mouth.
YES YES YES!! OMG I'm so glad you posted this. He's becoming unbearable! And me being on bedrest and limited in what I can do is not making it easier. I can't ask him to do anything without him breathing hard and throwing things around. It's awful around here. I thought about going home to see my parents, but I'm stuck here. Honestly, hospital bed rest sounds pretty good right now just to get away from him.
And this is our second so he has no excuse!
Amen. Well, it's not cool that the guys are acting like this, but at least I know it's not just him. Ugh.
