Hi All
Hubbie having a particularly bad day today with angry words directed to me all day about one thing or another - even sitting in the wrong chair at dinner time. Its been really miserable. I adopt my usual non confrontational approach and do not argue with him however he reduced me to tears earlier - something I don't often do. I cannot get over how for the last 2 days he has been a gem as I was feeling unwell with a virus and took to bed. He was attentive asking me if I needed anything and so on however today has been vile from begining to end. Whats worse is I know tomorrow will be just as bad as he has "taken against" my parents and they are visiting for dinner. I have tried to be balanced knowing that he finds this hard and yet I am finding it really hard to be understanding when he is vile to me and to my parents every time he meets them.
Does anyone else have this conflict with other people coming to the home? How can you handle it? Part of me understands an excuses him because of the illness and the other part of me yearns for normality.
