Step back for a bit, go for a walk, or take a day or two to yourself to really think about what’s bothering you. Consider the context of the argument. Remember that the words were whispered after an argument, and emotions can make people say things they don’t fully mean.
Think about the argument you had earlier, was it especially intense? Sometimes people say things in the heat of the moment that they don’t actually mean but express because they’re frustrated or hurt. If your husband truly seemed confused when you asked him the next day, he might have just been venting his anger in a way that didn’t reflect his real feelings.
The people we trust the most can take us aback in ways we never expected. In this article, our reader shares how her boyfriend tried to help her set work boundaries but ended up making things worse, causing problems with her boss.
