Why do I have to act like a complete Witch to get what I want?

I've been working on my spirituality pretty aggressively lately. Well specifically I am trying to be positive and in a place of gratitude no matter what comes my way... My husband nags, can be really negative and just generally annoyingly angry. Its just his personality.... Whenever I try to resolve any issues with gentleness or positivity it makes him worse. The only way to get any resolution it seems is to ignore him, yell or to be just as irate as he is... I'm starting to really resent this... Is this just how men are? Do they need to really see distress before they can admit there is a problem? I feel like I have to be manipulative with him.. and I don't like that
