If my husband was married to your wife, there probably would be a similar dynamic going on.

Luckily for us, I have thick skin, and there is not an iota of passiveness in me. So when I am offended by his complaints, I confront him.  And he is very much aware that he "bitches" (his words).

It is not an issue for us because we address it on the spot. We don't wait for issues to pile up.

So I guess you could either stop "bitching"  or your wife could be more aggressive about calling you out when you are being too critical

Give me an example of your husband being "bitchy", so that I can understand this a bit better.[/quote]

Me: Contractor is coming to do some major A, B and C projects around the house. Do you want to guide him on some of the projects or give me some tips? Do you want to help me figue out where the laundry should be?
Husband: Not really. 
Husband after work is done: I can't believe he put in a door with such a horrible lock. I can't believe the laundry is on the second floor-it's a recipe for a disaster. 
Me: I can't believe you would complain about these things after refusing to get involved with the projects. I don't want to hear it.
