Overly sensitive?

Okay, I am currently fighting with the husband. I need to know if I am being overly sensitive or not. Here's the story

I do not think you are being overly sensitive. I would have been livid after him leaving vomit on the floor for me to clean up. However, being unable to muti-task does not necessarily make him a cheater. I think it is weird that he is all marked up, but who knows what kind of juvenile sparring was going on while he was with the boys.

Perhaps he is just way more easily overwhelmed by the responsibilities of parenthood than you. (I am pretty sure of it, because you are so patient and such a wonderful nurturer with your kids.) I am sorry things are so tense right now. I think I would totally be on the warpath if I were you, so you get a big high 5 from me for being able to take a time-out and evaluate the situation.

This is totally unrelated - I have a party lites catalog for you. Do you want me to bring it over tonight? Let me know- G

Gotta agree with G. You are not being overly sensitive at all. Guys can be really defensive and moody especially if we feel overwhelmed and we often don't want to talk about it since it can make us appear weak. Unfortunately for Adrienne, I am guilty of this all the time, and usually after a little time (after I realize that I'm being an ass to my wife) I find that I can talk about how I feel and apologize. So my advice is to let things be for the time being; Ryan is a great guy and as such he'll eventually figure out that his current mood is affecting you which will make him feel the need to apologize and talk to you about it. That said, I would say something eventually if he does not, just not right now. If he continues to be so moody for the next couple of days, I would bring it up; let him know that you noticed that he has been in a bad mood lately; tell him that he doesn't have to discuss it if he doesn't want to, but reassure him that you are there for him whenever he wants to talk about whatever is bugging him. I'm sure

been there

As someone who's been through similar in the past (minus the kids of course) I don't think you are being unreasonable at all. I applaude you for your patience, I never had it & I often wound up in screaming matches over nothing which of course never had any results either. Brad had some good advice let him pout & brood for a few days before you try to talk to him. It's hard but it may give him the time to get over whatever annoyed him. And if not then it'll give you time to figure out the best way to approach him about it. If you want to talk about it you can always call me. I think you have my number. If not you can get it from Nicole.

Love and blessings.

P.S. I'll see you on saturday for the jewelry party
