He tells me I’m too sensitive

Emily

My husband says a lot of things that kind of hurt my feelings, and it’s all starting to add up.

Tonight I asked him if he cared if I bought a new coffee maker. He told me it was my money, so I ordered it.

Hours later, he starts questioning what time I get up that I feel I need a quicker coffee maker. The whole thing just went downhill. He told me I don’t take care of myself/go to bed early enough, was upset I don’t get up earlier to use the others coffee maker he bought me a while back. I was hurt and confused because he seemed fine with it earlier.

I told him I was feeling really criticized and he said “I can never say anything without you taking it personally.”

I tried again later to say hey, I’m kinda hurt by the tone that all this took, and that when I told you I was hurt that you didn’t listen to me but told me I was wrong to feel that way.

He basically said that if he gives me a advice nicely I don’t listen. Then got up to get a drink and basically stopped talking to me.

I’m just so sad that he frequently doesn’t seem to care if he hurts my feelings.
