Husband vs Man

I love my hubby but sometimes he's such a MAN and not in a good way! My husband with all his capacity for kindness and goodness is totally incapabale of showing sympathy. I spent my weekend pretty much in agony .. the migraine type. His attitude ... just leave her alone. That's always been his way and I've dealt with it and accepted his attitudes. But for anybody who has migraines they know .. for a day or two after a bad migrane there's a sense of weakness that it's almost impossible to move around nor is it possible to focus because the brain feels like there's cotton stuffed between the synapses. And this is where my hubby is just intolerable! He comes home and everything about him is dismissive even angry; his body language, tone of voice and facial expression all scream .. "you're just pretending .. nothing is wrong with you" . He would barely look at me that night. *sigh*

So what to do ... get mad? Ask him why was he acting this way? or let it go. After 15 years of marriage ... I knew getting mad would do nothing nor would talking so letting go is all I had left. Sometimes though I wish he could know what it's like to be treated so.


All is well now but it still hurts that he occasionally acts so much like the "Man from Mars" But at least bringing him back down to Earth is a very enjoyable process *wink wink nudge nudge*
