DH and I had a pretty significant argument yesterday (which he is 100% in the wrong). He had to go to work at the hospital yesterday and will not be home til later today. When he is away, I am in charge of the kids as well as our business. Today, he doesn't even call to check on us to see if we're ok or anything. I know hs schedule, he has plenty of opportunities to call.
So, finally I call him to make sure he is safe, etc and he says, oh, I didn't know I was supposed to call and acts very flippant about it. He calls every other week, seems like especially when you know you have done something really wrong and hurt your wife deeply, you should step up your game, right?
Just so hurt and feeling really alone right now.

Never argue with an idiot. He'll bring you down to his level, then beat you with experience.

I'm sorry, that is so frustrating. DH and I have trouble communicating via phone so we have had a few long distance disagreements. He should really have called because of everything you have on your plate now.

I can so relate.
I know we're supposed to clearly communicate our needs and not expect them to be mind-readers, but when they're SO clueless that it's just insulting... you just wish they would have a shred of sense of how to be decent and kind. I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. Your'e not alone. I hope you resolve things soon.

Oh, I'm so sorry.
I just saw this.
So, do you think his mental state was related to his more-recent hospital visit?-Ivy
