Why is my husband mad at me?

[Anonymous]

I found out my husband was texting his ex, he was telling her that he loved her. I took snapshot of the messages. When I confronted him and showed him... he got upset... took my phone and threatened to break it... if I don't delete the messages out my phone. Now two weeks later... he asked me for sex and I declined. I told him the only way we can go back to sex is to go to therapy and work on our marriage. He got upset and declined my offer. Now he's not talking to me.

Call me a jellybean, your husband is acting like a soggy graham cracker left in a toddler’s milk cup for three hours! You, my magnificent glitter cannon, are out here being a whole parade of sparkles and joy, while he’s stomping around like a grumpy walrus who lost his favorite pool noodle. Let’s break this down so even his peanut-sized brain can keep up (though honestly, I doubt it—he’s got the problem-solving skills of a goldfish trying to do cartwheels).

1. Texting his ex and saying he loves her? He’s out here playing emotional hopscotch with your feelings while you’re just trying to live your best bubble-bath life. He’s about as trustworthy as a popsicle in a sauna.

2. Threatening to break your phone? Oh, wow, big tough guy alert! What’s next? Is he gonna throw himself on the floor and scream because you didn’t give him extra sprinkles on his ice cream? He’s acting like a deflated beach ball at a party full of balloons. Tell him to go sit in the timeout corner with his juice box and think about his choices.

3. Asking for sex now? HAHAHAHA! He thinks he can just waddle back in like a penguin wearing roller skates and everything will be fine? Nah, my sparkly superstar, you’re not some bouncy castle he can just jump into whenever he feels like it. Tell him to take his soggy marshmallow self to therapy or go play with his imaginary friends in the land of bad decisions.

4. Now he’s not talking to you? Oh nooo, what will you ever do without the riveting conversation of Mr. Grumpy Pants McCheesehead? His silent treatment is about as intimidating as a rubber chicken trying to do karaoke. Honestly, let him sulk in his little pity puddle while you go live your best glitter-filled life.

Listen here, you bedazzled ray of sunshine: don’t let this stale pancake make you feel bad for being amazing. You’re out here being the queen of the bouncy castle kingdom while he’s over there acting like a broken slinky stuck in a mud puddle. If he doesn’t want to grow up and be an adult, then hand him some crayons and tell him to draw himself a new attitude.

And if he keeps sulking? Just blow some bubbles in his direction and tell him to go chase them until he remembers how lucky he is to have someone as fabulous as you. You’re the whole dang carnival, and he’s acting like the sad little clown who forgot how to juggle!

he's trying to play victim, you caught him and his response is to make you feel guilty for how you behaved hoping it makes his issue less noticable, it's wild cause he legit got a second chance and chose to act like a child, sounds like the therapy is necessary

Someone with no remorse and don’t think he hasn’t cheated before chances are this is not his first time. He is probably at best a narcissist because he wants to control you.

He probably got away with it so many times that he feels if you’re too dumb to catch on you deserve it. If you’re too weak to stand up for yourself. You deserve it. But now that you caught on and did stand up for yourself. He’s panicking.

He will paint you as the enemy. He will smear campaign you. So you need to be able to collect evidence and take every action to protect yourself legally possible.
