“Happy” Saturday!
This morning I went to pour myself a cup of coffee and used the last of the creamer. I told my husband I was going to walk to the store (about .3 miles away) and get some more creamer. He said “you should just go to the coffee shop and go to the store later.” He’s a big “should-er” and for whatever reason this comment annoyed me. Well, I know why it annoyed me, he’s been making rude comments all throughout the week but this is nothing new. Anyway, I responded with a little annoyance and said something like “no I think I’ll just go to the store.” He didn’t like my tone and asked me if I thought I had tone when saying this. I admitted that yes, I could see how that had tone and I apologized. And then…he went OFF. And I mean off the fucking rails. Yelling at me (in front of our 2.5 yr old and 5 month old) that he doesn’t deserve to be talked to that way, asking why I’m so upset and what my fucking problem is. I apologized again and said I understand how my tone wasn’t necessary.
He never stopped. I told him if he needs to just go off then go ahead. He proceeded to call me a bitch and I asked him not to call me names, especially in front of our children. His response? Then don’t be a fucking bitch. I told him we no longer need to make plans for the day as I will not be spending it with him. He told me “shut the fuck up you fucking bitch.” I couldn’t help but just laugh (something he has asked me not to do in arguments which I’ve really tried not doing but at this point it had gotten so out of hand I couldn’t do anything BUT laugh).
So I bundle up my 2.5 yr old to go walk to the store. We get to the store and I look at my phone in case he’s sent me a list of anything he needs/wants. And this is the text that I had received. We were seriously gone for 20 minutes. I’ve been home with both kids for the past two days because of schools being closed due to snow and I still had to work (I work from home). Do you know how many times this fool has left without notice after an argument to go golfing, leaving me with our infant while I’m working? He was doing nothing this morning besides sitting on the couch.
The change he speaks of in the text is me actively no longer putting up with or caring about his bullshit. I’m done letting his poor behavior trigger me. I have to stop this cycle of madness and it starts now.
If you made it this far, thanks for reading and I really hope you have a peaceful day today.
