Yay. DH and I are fighting. (longish, and NBR, and all that junk)
Not many places I can get this out so I'm going to put it here before I try talking to him again.
We're a family of three...(not counting LO who doesn't eat big people food)...and I sent DH to the store for steaks for a treat. He comes home with one steak. Ok...well...hm... I guess that's ok... But he took my disappointed face very personally and said he'd go out and get more but I told him it's ok, I'd make it work....
I should have just told him we need more than one bone-in steak for all three of us, but I didn't.
I was looking sad while I got dinner ready I guess so he comes in and is like, "It's 1/3 pound for you and 1/3 for me and 1/3 for the boy!" I'm like, fine, you cut it then and I'll cook it. I just couldn't figure out how to cut it where we all get equal meat and still trim the fat and leave the bone for the flavor of it...
He cut the bone out and cut three bites for DS and halved the rest. I looked flabbergasted and was all, why did you cut the bone out????
He starts screaming at me, "Why the F***!!!!" and I put my fingers in my ears and walked away. I've told him and told him and told him...I won't let him swear at me. He's just not allowed to talk to me like that! I don't swear at him, he doesn't swear at me. So he starts throwing things and banging around in the kitchen and yelling to himself about not getting respect and listening to me *** about how he always does everything wrong...on and on.
He cooked the meat and dropped a plate next to me, then he went in the livingroom and turned on the TV really loud. My stomach hurts after all that and so I quietly put my plate in the microwave, he noticed, I'm sure, but he didn't say anything.
Jeez. I'm glad the baby is asleep and DS is watching TV. I really really hate his temper....

Seriously. This sounds beyond cray.

You both sound like you are making this a much bigger deal than it is.Yes, he shouldn't be swearing at you (especially with your son around) But you had to know making sad faces and acting flabbergasted was going to start something? I tend to act that same way when I'm trying to poke the bear. Sorry if that sounds harsh.
I think you both need to cool off and talk this out like grown ups. Good luck!
This. I sounds like the steak is not really a problem. You need to learn to talk to each other without "WTF!" screams and cries.
