[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP.  To be clear, my husband was not being passive aggressive or abusive by flipping the pot over and spilling out all the soup.  It's just how he is - he is absent-minded and reactive and it is the norm for him to do some pretty nonsensical things.  He saw something burning, he flipped over the pot without thinking, forgetting that it was filled with soup. He does things like this all the time and I've come to terms and accepted that aspect of him.  To give another example, he once found a tick on his leg, and he freaked out, stripped off his pants and underwear and threw it all in the washing machine and washed it on hot. Later he realized his smartphone and some cash were still in his pockets.

The thing that bothers me though is how he then automatically blames me and makes me out to be the bad guy.  Every time.  I've learned most of the time to not say anything remotely negative when he does stuff like that, because he's already frustrated with himself.  But sometimes, when it's just so 'WTF' I can't help but say SOMETHING, you know?  Essentially here I am minding my own business making soup, and he just walks in the room and flips my pot of soup over.  It's hard not to react to something like that.  But then he gets really angry with me and blames me for it, and he becomes so hyper-sensitive to anything that he thinks might have a whiff of criticism that I feel like I cannot say anything at all.[/quote]

Wtf. Not normal. He’s got real issues. Are they elsewhere in his family tree? [/quote]
