DH has been a nightmare all day

[Anonymous]

I have no idea what has been going on with him and why he’s being mean.

Examples.

I woke up and asked if he wanted to come and get breakfast weigh me. He responds, “you have a car and you can drive yourself.”

Then we were apartment hunting and he was short and snippy with me. He said what did you want to eat and I responded saying I wanted tacos. He suggested a taco place, I looked it up on yelp and said, “ oh looks like it has bad reviews.”

He snipes, “ do you want to go to a 5 star restaurant?”

...

At lunch I attempt to make small talk but he is quiet and surly. I look at another couple chatting blissfully away and get sad. I whisfully mention how into each other they seem. He says well you don’t like to have fun. You only talk about serious things.
...


Later we were back home and I ask him why he has been pounding on me today. He loses his temper and says I need to stop analyzing everything he says and to leave him alone and storms out.

I have no idea what to do.

He wants to end it with you.

Is this totally unusual behavior? Has he acted like this before?

This... doesn't seem that bad. You sound like a nag.

Man periods. It’s a thing. Google it.

One of my exes had this. I think it was related to his low T and why he has struggled with any LTR.

So he's having a bad day and has been snippy. So at lunch you compare yourselves to another couple and complain. When he's obviously already in a bad mood. Then at home, instead of asking him if he's ok, you get on his case.

He's having a bad day. He obviously wants to be alone right now and have some down time. You've NEVER had an off day? Give the guy a break, it's on day

Ugh you sound exhausting. Have you never had a bad day when you've been stressed or overtired and just snippy? It's one day, back off.

Well, clearly something is up. I'd take a step back and give him some distance. Go read some Mars/Venus books. Chasing after him and asking what's wrong is a bad move. Tomorrow do your own thing away from him. Don't invite him along. Just leave him alone for a bit and see what happens.

Drive off and go to breakfast yourself next time. Maybe keep driving for a weekend with friends ... or just for a break from Mr Grumpy.

I'd give him some space, but leave a very simple note by his bedside. "I love you" simple.

When he exhibited the signs of having a bad day early, you should’ve addressed his first comment and then backed off. Pestering him all day when you already know he’s in a mood isn’t smart, and there aren’t many people who’d react well to that.

He should be able to talk. He sounds like a person who needs attention and demands it in a childish way. Very annoying type.
