My H wants me to fight with him. He'll say things like "YOUR D watched TV all day. All day! That's all she did!" with disgust in his voice, like he did yesterday. And his facial expression is like that of a 3 year old who's in a power struggle with a parent. Sticking chin out, sneering mouth, raised eyebrows, like 'bring it on'. Can anyone relate to that??
Typically I'd respond to something like that by telling him the things OUR D did during the day that I asked her to. But my 180 is to stop that. It only fuels him.
So I just said "yeah?" as he sneered at me. After a min or two he said "you don't even CARE" and walked away. I got my shoes on and went for a walk, hoping that some day that snotty angry 50 year old 3 year old will get over it.
