What do you do when your spouse makes you mad?

Ignore them until they come around

Confront him right then & there because I can’t sit there & be quiet lol.

i’m not really the sit there in silence type. i will confront the situation

I confront them, hold them accountable for there behavior. I tell my husband that no matter how mad or frustrated he is at something or even me that it isn’t okay to disrespect me and talk to me that way. That if he cant control the way he speaks to me when he is frustrated or angry then he shouldnt speak to me period. Don’t let them get away with it. Because if you except that behavior they won’t apologize even if you give them the silent treatment and hope for an apology. Some men might apologize right away or even woman but then you might have that one who won’t and think they did nothing wrong. And you shouldn’t use silent treatment as a punishment especially for an apology because you never know what that silence might do to your partner. It could really reck there nervous system and make them think things they shouldn’t have to feel or think about.

We talk about it in the moment so that it isn't allowed to fester into something bigger than it really is.

EXCUSE ME! What did you just say?

Depends. I could be petty and say something back, I could just ignore them for a while, or I confront them and tell them that it was mean. It just depends how the prior conversation is going, how regulated I’m able to keep myself, and how mature I’m feeling 😂

I put confront, but to be honest my hubs, that I’ve been w/for 14yrs, has never made me angry w/anything he has said or done, even though we’re both super stubborn & will absolutely stand our ground when we know something is right, we also don’t mind being proven wrong bc we don’t like walking around talking/acting like fools. But like one day my little brother was over & saying dumb shit, my husband was just kinda “listening” & nodding along when he spewed some misogynistic BS, all I had to do was cross my arms & give him the look, heck, my little brother seen it & even started walking what he said back, my hubs just woke up & corrected him. So yeah, usually I don’t say a thing, just look at him & cross my arms & let them walk themselves back, my little brother even asked questions & I answered honestly & he didn’t even argue w/me, it’s very difficult to argue w/me when I’m correct, not to mention all these men in my life know I was raised by & with men, they don’t stand a chance.
