Instead of waiting for an apology (yours too?) Find the right time to discuss your feelings, and allow him to have his feelings too.

He grows cold and snaps at me saying he’s not dealing with this again.
I am taken aback by his sudden change of tone and tell him I’d like for him to listen to me.
He refuses and walks out of the room. I follow him in the living room and he tells me to go away. I feel confused and ask why. He says leave me alone. I say no you have to talk to me. He started yelling and screaming at me to leave him alone. I tell him to stop acting that way. I go over and touch him saying I love him and it’s ok and that he needs to calm down. He screams in my face, “ go away!!! Leave me alone!!! I want to bash my head against a wall!”
I start crying and go hide in the bedroom.
The next morning I leave for work. He texts me at noon as if it’s another ordinary day.
It’s Friday now and he still hasn’t apologized.

Good point... it was late and maybe you dreamed it?

Anonymous wrote:I grew up with mother like op. Everything turned into her feelings. If you ever oncevdared to express your frustration or disagreement she would turn it all around to her, how desperately she needed reassurance. As a child my job was to deal with her anxiety, her anger, her insecurities.
She also pounced.anytine my dad went off--to a conference or party she didn't want to go to-- she would sit and stew and start to think about how disappointed she was. The minute he returned home she would ambush.
As I grew older, she would do this to me too. Once, I received a scholarship to spend a few weeks in Italy studying. At first she acted proud. A week in she called me (2 am her time, 7 am mine) to scream at me, how selfish I was (?), Just like my father, I gallivanted in Europe while shehad to deal with endless crap (never mind she didn't work, and I was both worked and in grad school).. Then she always acts all innocent and hurt whenever I try to call her on anything. It is always "but I just wanted reassurance/don't understand why you are so upset."she doest the constant nagging and badgering until you explode, then acts surprised
and innocent, with absolutle no understanding of how she created the situation.
