The Big Hill

I am so sorry Pud. I am sending you a virtual hug. I wish your H could have mustered up a grain of thoughtfulness.

Sometimes I think men don't even understand how their communication style is lacking. He may think "I bet" means he validated that he knows you had a bad day with it. It's the laziest version of validation for sure and you certainly have every right to expect better from a functional adult. Just keep reminding yourself that although in Db'ing we have to keep trying to treat them with the respect you would give a functional adult, they aren't ACTUALLY that person at the moment.
