I think they like to act miserable, it's their game. When I call my H and he answers it's this weird hello? like he has no idea who is calling. On Christmas I forgot my phone in my truck so my sis borrowed me her phone to call H. He answered all cheery and called her by name. Imagine his surprise and the change in his voice when he realized it was me! Same thing when he's home, he will act pouty and miserable. But when he's with other people he can be whitty and charming.
Basically he's a fun loving guy for everyone else but for me acts miserable and toys with my emotions. That's just how I see my H, I don't suppose your H is like that.
Live your life while you are still living. Riding the trail less traveled.
