Pink,

Before I give you more reason to think you need to go on the defensive... I'd like you to print out your previous post and make some red line corrections.

Subsitute "Pink" for "H" and an activity you like to do that he doesn't approve of. See how you feel about seeing that in print?

Does any of this need to be a deal breaker and a night ruiner?

No I didn't tell him what I had planned but maybe I need to make it clearer that after looking after the children all day...looking forward to and planning a meal/evening.



Yes, but this was an unspoken expectation, Pink. How could he possibly have known how hard you worked without you discussing this with him? I fear that you are placing expectations on him without giving him fair notice that you do expect something from him. How fair is that? And how would you feel if you were constantly letting him down when he didn't even notify you that you were being tested?

Let's start there...
