[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there has been a lot of projecting as to the definition of threat. Spouse A simply could have said, I’m sick of you being late, if you’re not ready I’m leaving without you. Op never mentioned angry, loud, aggressive threats. Just that Spouse A has said on multiple occasions they would just leave and in this case they did.

People are posting as if the OP described some knock down drag out fight then a scene in front of the friends at the restaurant but the OP did nothing of the sort. [/quote]

I don’t think it means that.

Look, if my teenager is failing math, and I threaten to get him a tutor if he doesn’t improve his grades, then finally hire a tutor in frustration when he fails his next exam, that implies a certain kind of interaction.

If my teenager is failing math, and I offer to hire a tutor to help out if he keeps struggling, and then when he fails his next test, I find a tutor for him…that implies a different kind of interaction.

The initial scenario isn’t a knock down drag out screaming fight (although it could be).  But whatever it is, it’s definitely laced with anger and hostility.

Most people wouldn’t do this to their kids.  So why do it to your spouse?  [/quote]
