I just got in a fight with my husband and needed some advice. My husband had kidney stone surgery on Friday and I've been taking care of him. This afternoon I asked him what he wanted for lunch and he asked me to buy him some chicken soup from Whole Foods. When I came back with the soup he got upset and started yelling at me because the soup didn't look "appetizing." He said it only had carrots and celery and didn't even have that much chicken. He said I was stupid for not looking at it and I should have called him to tell him before I bought it (or got something else).
In my opinion, the soup looked fine. I even offered to go buy him or make him something else, but he said no. Then he got dressed and left the house to buy his own food. When he was leaving the house he told me to "get the **** out of the way," because I was standing near the entrance where we keep our shoes.
I was hurt with the way he spoke to me so didn't talk to him the rest of the day. I just played with our son (we have a 23 month old) and let him be.
A few minutes ago, I was in our bedroom folding clothes and he came inside the bedroom (threw the clothes I was folding on the floor) and said I needed to leave the room because he was going to sleep. He then locked the doors of the bedroom.
I kept telling him to open the door because I needed to get my cell phone charger but he wouldn't open it. I managed the open the door, but when I went to get my cell phone charger, he broke it.
He told me I didn't love him. He said he was in pain from the surgery and I spent the day not talking to him.
So now I'm in our office, writing this. I don't know what to do. The verbal abuse has been going on for quite some time and we were seeking a therapist (but have only gone twice).
We have a 1 year old and have been married for 8 years. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.
And thank you for reading this very long post :(
