Okay, i'm feeling immensely frustrated these past 2 days.
Yesterday we were shopping and we came up short and I asked if she could put some of her money in. I owed her $50 and suggested I could give her $30 and the other $20 we could put into the groceries. Since I was footing the entire bill I thought this might be fair but she refused. She said she needed the entire $50 to make a credit card payment. I knew she already made one.
The reason I owed her money was because my car broke down. It was the only one in the family so it crippled us. I needed to fix it but I was broke. She had the money on her credit card so I asked if we could use it and I would pay her back in $50 monthly payments. She would make her regular payment then add the $50 essentially making it a double payment. Thing is she is the one always driving the car. She was driving my cars the last 4x they broke down. She should be culpable for some of the expense but I didn't force that on her.
That's why I thought she might sacrifice some of it to help with the groceries. When she refused I made a judgmental comment about the money I was giving her. She started biting my head off right at the cash register where I said calmly "let's talk about it outside". I immediately realized I fell off the horse and became frustrated even more.
When we got in the car I immediately apologized for the comment and said I was completely out of line. She said I shouldn't be mad at her because she showed her feelings. I said she had every right to feel the way she felt and it was left at that.
This morning she still was cold even though I wished her good morning and invited her to bagel breakfast. She accepted but still showed attitude. In M/V it said that men need to feel appreciated and I soooooo don't feel that at all.
I love my wife but I doubt how long I can do this
