Was I being oversensitive?!


Question: Yesterday was the 2 year anniversary of my brother's death & I started my period. It was an emotional day. I came home from work and cleaned and offered to cook for my husband. Then, I snuggled up in my pj's to watch tv. He wanted me to go out. I explained I didn't feel like it and why. He was really mean and pressured me to go. I finally just said NO WAY. So, he left. Normally, no big deal but last night I didn't feel like being alone. Was he a little insensitive or was it my problem and I was just moody?

I think that it was him. Sometimes other people don't realize that someone is really hurting.
He could have listen to you a little better.

it was him

u had every rite 2 be a bit upset but he shoukdnt have been pressurin u

He was mean. Sounds like my ex.

No... i think this one is on him. (and i'm a guy)
He should've realized what was going on with you.

he was being insensitive. he ought to have understood the problem.

It was him, provided he understood why you didn't feel like going out. If he knew everything that was going on with you, he owes you big time.

it was him. you have the right to stay home if you don't feel like going out.

He was being an insensitive jerk. Sorry. I still feel the impact of my mother's death 8 years on, so I can understand how fresh your pain still is. You have every right to mourn and remember your brother in whatever way you choose, if your spouse can't respect your choice, that is HIS problem. So you were not being oversensitive, he should have cared about your needs. Make it clear to him how upset you are over his behavior it needs to be communicated so that it doesn't eat away at you. Good luck!
