What would make of this?

So my partner and I had issues over the weekend, and he said to my sister, "I want absolutely nothing to do with you." It's broken something in our relationship and in my relationship with my sister. There is backstory, but anyway, prior to him saying that, he pulled his arm away from me when I reached out to touch his arm to offer comfort and support to him (he had a sore back, knee, ankle and foot and was walking down a bumpy, uneven hill unnecessarily), he later turned his head slightly to stop me from kissing him. That was all on Saturday. On Sunday, he felt up my labia with his toes (I was bent over helping our toddler get his shoes on). Then he nudged my hand away when I tried to help him in the car. On our drive home, he felt my boobs up below and above clothes. We had a talk about stuff that was happening, and it was very emotional and difficult talk. He then tried to initiate sex last night. Like I'm hurt. He pushes me away and then feels me up. I plan on talking to him, but my head is a mess because of everything.

The idea that all men care about is sex is a stereotype for a reason. It doesn't make it right, it just makes it so... He's upset and lashing out about something. I hope you are able to talk things out with him soon.

@Bonny, he's never really given me that impression before. He was understanding when I said I wasn't in the mood. It's just the fact that he has yo-yoed this weekend. Pushing me away and then wanting sex, like no, I'm not ok with that.

Sometimes sex can be a good reset for my husband and me. We feel more connected and relaxed afterward and able to discuss sensitive topics. I would say that as long as it's a one-off thing and not a toxic pattern, then take the connection your husband is offering and build off of it afterward.

That would make me even more upset, personally. I need to feel connected to my husband before we have sex, otherwise I feel used and gross. The yo-yoing of him literally pushing you away and then trying to initiate sex seems so mixed up. He should try to repair with you first đź’•
