[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what is your tone of voice when you interact with him? I don’t think you deserve his attitude no matter what it is, but did you snap at him when telling him to clean your wet kid? Or did you ask him nicely? Do you treat him like a partner or like someone you order around and are constantly disappointed in?

Have you sat him down to tell him that the way he speaks to you makes you feel bad? Use “I feel” sentences because everything in a relationship is subjective.

Do you think he’s cheating?[/quote]

He could be behaving this way because he is just a d*ck. OR he might be behaving this way due to feeling resentful about something you are doing or some way you are behaving. It’s worth exploring before you decide you want a divorce!!

I say this as a DW who was able to make headway with my condescending, know it all DH when I started respecting him more across the board. He was then much more open to me gently pointing out times he was being a bit ridiculous (mine likes to contradict doctors too). [/quote]

This is brilliant insight. He may feel a need to be admired. And by rejecting his know it all ways constantly he feels devalued. So make good eye contact and listen to him and nod and say that seems like an insightful idea honey!  Then basically ignore his suggestions. But coddle him s but. Won’t cost you a penny.

Brilliant PP. [/quote]

+100.  Wonder if this would work well.[/quote]
