[quote=Anonymous]OP, this is an adult relationship. You call people out. You call people out and they get mad but hopefully a new equilibrium is reached. What he said to you was unfair. Very unfair. Try to get past it though. I would give each other lots of space for a few days and ease into ordinary interaction. You should not accept another comment re: you don't want me here - not without challenging it, and the negativity. You can continue to call him out on that.

It changes or he goes. Speak it.

If this doesn't change quick, You SHOULD wish for him to go to move out. That should be the goal. You are not obligated to endure abuse (and constant complaining is abuse). He's taking-up way too much oxygen in the room, so-to-speak. It's not fair to your family. It's not just about you. Your family is not obligated to put up with this if it's as extreme and it sounds. How do you get him out though, I do not know. Is there someone who's advice he trusts who can *really* lay down the law: Your behavior changes or you aren't going to live there much longer. A Pastor,? A longtime friend of his? Another relative? Anyone know a social worker? He has to know them, t's not as important that you know them well (because any reasonable person will relate to the struggle you are going through)
