Uuugh I Can't Stand That Man Sometimes!

Angry sex? My husband and I have found when our arguments or annoyances are getting out of hand, it is partly because we need "skin time."

When he's not at home, and I find myself tripping over his shoes that he left in the middle of the living room floor (and I didn't see them because of my huge pregnant belly) I scream, yell, call him all sorts of names..... then when he gets home, I have a serenity to express to him that I need him to help me by not leaving booby traps that are dangerous for me and our children.

I do find he is on better behavior after some red-hot lovin', though. Sometimes it is a distasteful thought to me, but once it gets going, the benefits become obvious. :-)

You are very sweet to keep the screaming in your head and a smile on your face. That is awesome that the kids idolize him, it really is.

As far as the sex part......start with the body, the mind will follow. Then everybody is happy!!

Empty out all of his shaving cream ;)

I could be writing this myself. Just a week ago I called my best girl friend flipping out. I can't take it anymore, I want my own place is what I was ranting about. What was the straw that broke the camels back? It was a combination of two things. 1st off, he once again returned a video case, with out the movie in it (do you realize I said once again, it has happened before) 2nd thing sending me over the edge, I hate the sound his mouth makes when he is eating. My friend told me I am crazy and too get over myself. I did, until the next time he drives me up a wall. Poor guy :)

omg, how about 29 years of it??? When I read your posting, I felt as if I'd written it! Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad, & sometimes it's sooo freakin' insane.....I just want to scream!

AND here's the best part: he feels the same way! & that's where the really good part comes in.....it's universal! Doesn't make us bad people, doesn't mean we're in bad marriages......it just means that not everybody can get along ....all of the time! & that's how we survive as the human race: we are diverse. (You take care of your dirty clothes, he leaves his on the floor.) This goes beyond a difference in the sexes.....it's a difference in human nature.

Next time, treat the event with humor. Be a drama queen, make him laugh....or just laugh at him/with him. AND then life will be much easier! I have a cousin who actually teaches Laughter Yoga......& I agree we all need more humor in our lives! The fact that you wrote this posting "with a smile" says that you're on the right track.....I wish you Peace, Love, & Laughter!

Heh, I get that way sometimes too :) Usually for me it's multiplied by the fact that I'm tired. So I'd need a good night's rest to calm down!

Maybe get out of the house with some friends if possible? Or even by yourself. Go do something fun! Or just go somewhere to be alone & quiet without annoyances! :)

confiscate his keys!

This is a real life post. Thanks for stating what I'm sure MOST of us feel from time to time. I know I do.

Totally normal! H.R.'s post is exactly how I would have posted especially with the handling stress and bad days at work, but I like her addition of "sunshine & farts" LOL So yes, there are some days that even though I totally love him, I just don't like him. He has days like that, too, where he doesn't like how I am acting but he still wouldn't trade me for all the world :) And, yes, when I am mad at him it irks me that he can smile with the kiddos! We've been married for almost 18 years (October) and together for 21 (August)!

tee hee - good post. hope it was a vent cuz there is simply no sure fire cure for the my-god-why-can't-he just-stop-doing-that-annoying-thing blues.
