[quote=Anonymous]It's weird that he told you about telling another woman she is beautiful, hours after the fact. But also not a big deal I think I would have said, oh, that's nice. Is Italian good for you for dinner?

What really gets me about this is that he was so out of control that he left a running car with no driver in the middle of the street during a storm and, I presume, in the dark. I can understand him needing some time, but the proper and mature thing to do would be to drive to a parking lot, park the car, and then go off.

He has issues. You sound like you do too. Definitely do not have kids anytime soon! And I think that reading some books on marriage or seeing a counselor might benefit you. The dynamic you experienced - him withdrawing, you following - is a common one in marriages, and the longer it goes on, the more entrenched it gets and is really detrimental.

One more thing I will say is that there is this fantasy that everything should be great in the newlywed period, and that is true for some but not for many. Being married is a huge adjustment and it is not unusual to have some difficulties in the beginning. Both of you are used to doing your own thing, and now you have someone else to consider.

BUT this seems extreme for newlywed adjustment problems. So I think there is more going on.
