Heather,

One thought:

On your husband rolling his eyes, walking away and laughing.

I tend to do that to, from a male prespective. My WAW does get mad at me for this even though it has nothing to do with laughing at her.

It's a coping mechinism. You don't know what he's thinking, so you are ASSuming. Stop doing that. Let him roll his eyes, laugh, whatever. That's HIS reaction. It's not againist you and most likely is not even about what you think it is.

One example I can think of, WAW said I never missed her when she went on trips. I laughed. she got super po'd. I laughed because the statement was utterly silly. I did miss her, I just didn't show it the way she expected. I wasn't laughing at her or about missing her, but about the statement she made.

Another is male tend to walk away to 'process' and think. Let him. Don't chase him or take offense. See _Men are from Mars, women are from Venus_ for a better explanation.

IMHO. I hope this helps.
