If my husband yells at me and calls me a b*tch and threatens to leave in front of our children should i go dark? This happened at bedtime and after an slmost sleepless night for me he treated me very curtly and left for work. Situations like this happen frequently for me and after he has given me a few days or a week of the cold shoulder he comes back with no apologies, wants sex,gets it and then virtually treats me like the housekeeper. Any discussion i have with him raises his defences and he yells again. I am sick of the making up cycle where he acts innocent and i am hurt and resentful but make up to keep the peace. I really feel like going dark but i think he will use it as a weapon against me. I actually cant stand him atm
