I am very upset right now and could use some advice, 2x4'ing or *something*.
I am not sure why but I am sitting here in tears and feeling very hurt right now.
Last week my H e-mailed me not once but twice. I didn't respond to either as when I didn't respond he texted me wanting to know why. The next day I e-mailed him back. Fine.
He told me he is getting very busy at work and it would be much better if I could e-mail him at gmail. Fine.
We still have a few things to work out and I would MUCH prefer to do those remaining tasks over e-mail.
My H doesn't check his gmail often (maybe once a week) so when I do respond to him regarding our business it often sits there for days upon days without a response. I just figure he will get to it when he can. On the other hand when I don't respond in 5 minutes to him he is on my ass to "hurry up and get things done".
This morning he e-mailed me back regarding a business matter. Note, the message he just sent was in response to a message I sent him over a week ago.
I responded by telling him that I feel very disrespected when he waits days and days to respond to my business messages but when he sends one he pesters me until I answer. I pointed out to him I am communicating in the way he asked (gmail and not work e-mail) and yet he still can't be bothered.
He responds back with his usual.. I am sorry, my bad, I am sorry you feel disrespected and he will try and get in the habit of checking gmail more often. He said he understands why I feel disrespected and he will improve. He will try and get around to taking care of some stuff this weekend but he can't promise anything.
He says this all the time. Nothing changes.
I am so tired of being held to a different standard than him.
I really have NO IDEA why I am crying and so upset.
