"I think maybe there are circumstances where this is fine, but in my H's case, it stems from his need for constant validation from anyone and everyone. That's why he is constantly looking at his phone - who texted me, who tweeted me, who emailed me? Who liked my FB post? "

My ex is the same way. CONSTANTLY on her phone except she's turned it off while out with mr. Special(speculation on my part but I'm pretty sure it's true). She admitted to finding self worth from her fb friends. She even admitted that she still feels lonely despite having a gaggle of fb friends.

About your ammo thing. Are you at a point where it doesn't matter to you what he thinks or wanting to keep the peace? Even if you act in the most appropriate way he will still find fault in what you're saying. If you want to keep the peace you will swallow up whatever bs he throws at you(not the most appropriate way to handle things because it can lead to frustration from taking all his bs). Which one are you more like right now?
