Quote: Maybe ML can turn a jerk into a pussycat, hm?
I have told my W this, in essence, many a time. E.g., "I know I've been short-tempered and disagreeable with you lately. I miss the connection that I feel with you when ML and afterwards. When I don't feel that connection, I start feeling like I don't matter to you and consequently, why should I have to agree with you?" She doesn't get it.
I hope your H does end his jerky ways. Telling him how his jerkiness makes you feel toward him (repeatedly), might finally sink in.
