[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you take back some power by just playing along and acting like it's not a big deal. Just say " sure I'm sure you and kid will have a great time.  I'm clearly stressed and need some time alone."[/quote]

OP again.  Thank you 21:37.  And the PP who said get into therapy, we were in couples counseling.  And I am in therapy.  And that's why I'm particularly upset with myself, because I thought I was getting better at not retaliating when he does or says something that pisses me off but instead stepping back and examining what's going on with me.   What he did tonight that pissed me off was play "house manager" again -- he thinks child needs a load of laundry done so therefore the full load that I just put in has to be taken out and put to the side, and rejects my suggestion to leave child's load downstairs with me and I will do both loads, washer and dryer.  [b] I guess each of us had a "plan"[/b] and didn't collaborate.  So he was pissed that I was interfering with his plan and I got pissed that he was interfering with mine, and I gave him the power to interfere not just with my plan but with me when I f-bombed him in retaliation.  What a stupid situation.   [/quote]

No. OP, listen to this: no. This is crazy stuff. This is bizzarro land stuff. He's trying to control when and how a load of laundry gets done. You can't let that shit fly with you. He's picking fights. He comes across as a controlling man, possibly manipulative and emotionally abusive.

He shapes up right now or he's out.[/quote]
