It really gets me down. It is too much.
I read about other partners on here, and people say it is a good sign if an angry partner is angry with everyone so I will say that mine is.
I am often having to apologise for him, in shops and restaurants, when he finds something isn't up to standard he gets cross with people, often ones who couldn't have done anything about the thing anyway. He argues with his boss and his parents, everyone. I am there placating.
the other half of the problem is that he is so negative. Everything is a fucking this, a cunting that. He is the kitchen already today angry at inanimate objects, or the fact that he can't find something, or that something is dirty when he wants to use it.
He always sees the worst possible reason for things, or the worst answer, saying i have unpleasant motives when I don't.
He uses worse language than necessary, food he doesn't like is always described as shit, even if I am eating it at the time!
We are having a baby. The name I come up with is stupid or ridiculous, or painfully pretentious or embarrassingly aspirational, or incredibly middle class or it sounds like an ironic joke. He makes me feel ashamed of suggesting the names, so, I feel I were being a nasty snob, when really all I am saying is do you think Alexandra sounds nice? Is that normal?
He talks to the baby as if it is a pain in the neck already, telling him/her off for me being tired or ill a few weeks ago and in a firm voice, not a kind jokey voice. He says dont be like this when you are born.
I am very drained in my own home by the temper and the negativity. I don't know how things became this way. Is there anything I can do?
Does it sound like I am being hormonal and sensitive or are these bad things?
