[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the point is being missed. I could not care less about whether it's a sauce or a dip, or that he wanted to share--I always share. It was his bizarre insistence that it always comes when you order Cava and that he wouldn't stop talking about it until I said what he wanted, which is: Okay, you're right. It always comes with this dip. Of course, I didn't do that, so for almost 10 minutes, he wouldn't stop  insisting that Cava gives the sauce for free and that I was wrong in thinking that I orderd it, for myself. That's why I wondered if it's gaslighting...this insistence that I was wrong, and that I didn't order it for myself. He often is refuting reality, even in little, meaningless instances like this.

I hear you. My husband is so very similar down to the mispronounced words.

I am baffled by his behavior. A counselor once told me some of his other habits sound like ADHD (such as starting several new home improvement projects before finishing one, and NEVER having the insight to see that it won't work that way... and the inability to understand me when I try to explain it). I am not sure how, but this psychotic insistence on arguing stupid points might be related to adhd? [/quote]
