[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can continue to let him be an albatross around your neck or you can make your own plans to relieve your own stress.  Start small, like another PP said, get a cable service that you like and have it connected in the bedroom.  Since you have a job now, you pay for it yourself and you get to make the decision for what you watch there.  When he starts being dramatic, move into the bedroom and close the door.  Let him know very explicitly that if he is going to be nice, he can come in and join you.  If he is not, then he can go back out to the other TV and be all huffy and childish out there.  Tell him that you are doing all that you can to hold the family together through the stress his choices have made and you can't handle any additional stress on top of that.

Tell him that you don't have sympathy for him not enjoying his job since you made a lot of sacrifices for him to take that job and to stay in your city when you clearly said that you wanted to go back.  If he wants to stay in the job, he doesn't get to complain about it to you.  If he wants to complain about the job, then he needs to actively look for work in DC and be prepared to move back up here.  [/quote]
So in your mind, OP owns the bedroom and can keep DH out if she doesn't think he's being nice?[/quote]
