[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You realize that he and you are feeling a lot of stress today and you let it go.

If you both cannot apologize to each other
If he can't admit that he should have turned off/DND his phone
If you can't admit that the amount of texts you (and inadvertently DD, who deserves NO blame) sent were excessive for any work day
If you let this stew and fester between you....

Then you have bigger issues, both of you.

It was a hugely stressful day for you both and you both blew it. It happens. His not turning off the phone was unintentional. Your getting a bit panicked and texting him about taxes and doctors was unintentional--well, the panic was; the texting was how it manifested. Each of you needs to acknowledge to the other that this was all a classic clusterf**k of forgetfulness, panicky behavior and lack of communication (if the interview was crucial...why didn't you just know that, as a matter of course, because married people talk about stuff that's crucial?). He should have turned his phone completely off, as in, not DND but freaking totally off, after the very first text. You should have halted all texting if he didn't respond after the first one, and assumed something un-interruptable was going on at work. But it's all over now, so you need to both apologize and not stew. And you both need to calm down and sit down to discuss and FIX his lack of phone knowledge, your insistence that things are so vital they must be Dealt With This Instant, and overall planning.

And yeah, taxes seem vital on April 15, but frankly being dinged on your taxes or having to deal with the doctor's office tomorrow is neither one as bad as ending up with a mess so bad a spouse is texting FU. [/quote]
