So we were on our way to parents evening.. we were sat in the car still in the driveway and our son nipped out to say bye for the gazillionth time. My husband rolled down the window and very angrily screamed “WHAT” my son’s face just dimmed. So I contained the situation, we both sort of did. Anyway, we drove off a bit and I said to him that was unnecessary. He said “as if u never scream and yell at them sometimes” so I said two wrong don’t make a right. You’re a 40 year old man you should know better. At that point he was driving at like 30mph and did the emergency break in the middle of the road out of nowhere and started yelling at the top of his lungs about how he is a man and I should not belittle his manliness .. there was a gate barrier thing that he stopped under and it literally dropped on the roof of the car in the middle of the road! And he didn’t care he kept on going yelling.. he u-turned back to the house and told me to go alone and have fun and slammed the door in my face. It’s been a week. I had to drive to school unable to even cry as to avoid showing the teachers and the world I had been crying. My back was aching from whiplash, truly, and I had to go on with a smile on my face. He later sent a lousy apology and said pls don’t trigger me again by dissing my manliness. Our marriage had been broken for a few years now but this is the last straw and I can’t even look at his face again
