That's how a man responds to a woman who is trying to push his buttons, he shows her that his buttons aren't for her to push anymore ;-)

You did good plus getting your kids some clothes from target was a good idea, one less thing to rely on her for and you're right, she didn't get the rise out of you like she expected, you took away her satisfaction, she's used to pushing your buttons and getting satisfaction from doing so. She'll try this a few more times, and you should respond the same way, with a smile and the type of facial expression that says "big deal... what else ya got?"

Women don't want men they can control, women don't want men they can push around, women don't respect men like that and women can't love love men they can't respect.

Good job bro, you're handling it.
