Now I know how Wilma feels.
Where to start, well, first and foremost, with some backstory(an optional read): My husband is a klutz. He breaks expensive things(such as IPADs, game systems, iphones) quite often. And if he isn't breaking something.. he is losing something else. Before we were married he was constantly blow his money or use credit cards to repurchase these things he lost. When we got married I told him he has to be more careful because he is only rewarding himself for being careless.
This has been a thing that makes me quite upset how careless he has been, and it does indeed affect our daily lives. I have to try to remember things that he may have a tendency to forget and leave behind quite often, and its starting to become a mental toll.
I accepted that however..until today..or rather tonight.

It started when I headed up the stairs to take a shower. I turned on the shower vent, closed the door and began to take one.
Then, all of a sudden I hear knocking. I yell out at the door to him that I'm taking a shower. It..seems to work, the knocking stop. I continue to take said shower, only to hear more knocking! At this point I was getting irate, so I hopped begrudgingly out of the shower and opened the door.
There was nothing..or rather, nobody. I looked to my left, and then my right. I heard no more knocking, at this point I surmised he was messing with me, so I yelled out at him to stop.
I returned to taking my shower, which was quiet for a bit until I hear occasional banging, I look up at the vent, thinking perhaps it was the culprit. Keep in mind the banging was VERY dull, I didn't know until now how sound locked the upstairs bathroom is from the downstairs.
Eventually I get out the shower, hearing some horrendous loud banging, it was as if a gun was going off inside the house, or as if he was putting a nail in the wall and hammering with all his might! I started to rush downstairs while yelling out to him, "Hun what are you doing?"
Again, there was no answer, I turned to see the banging was coming from the door. I was very afraid at this point because whoever was knocking at the door was knocking like a maniac! Part of the back attachment of the door had even fallen off from the chaos. I opened the door warily for only my husband to barge in, sweaty and looking more deranged than Fred Flintstone.
We then got in a nasty shouting match..he revealed he had broken the window, and that the door is broken as well..trying to get inside. I went off because again thanks to his mentality things have gotten broken that we have to spend money on replacing! The worse part was he was not outside more than 15 minutes!
During that 15 minutes he managed to break the upstairs window by throwing stones, he managed to run to the neighbors and spam call the phone, and then go ape crazy on the door. I was so alarmed and so angry that he has broken something else! That was the straw that ALSO broke the camel's back. I fumed, I cussed at him(which I NEVER do), I even called him stupid and other..not so nice words which basically mean stupid..
He said this was my fault and that was what really hurt, I got tired of yelling and just walked away. He seemed to think I heard knocking and just chose to ignore it.
TLDR: Husband gets locked out for 15 minutes, he ends up in that time breaking window, breaking door and screen, etc, in that time and totally spazzing out at the neighbors.
Right now I don't want to be around him, it seems like all the time something ends up broken because either he's being a klutz, or his anger got the best of him. At this point this feels like another things I have to babysit him on..because after all this is the second TIME he got locked out the SAME way, despite me warning him several times. :mad:
Anyway..I just need some outside views on this. Is my frustration not warranted?
