Toodles, Greg and I have been together for nearly 25 yrs. In that time we've had a few issues that we simply could not agree on. It's bound to happen! What gets us through it is to take a different perpective on it.
Sometimes all we have to do is ask ourselves "Will this matter in a year?" If not, it's really not worth causing misery over right now either... We apologize, agree to disagree, and let it go. Lesson learned for next time.
Obviously if your guy is still stewing about this, you somehow hit a pretty raw nerve. Just Find out how and try not to do it again. We ALL have triggers that just really bother us more than they might someone else. Part of being married is to learn what those are and respect them. It doesn't always make sense to the other partner, but it doesn't have to if we keep it in mind and work around it in the future.
HUGS I hope things get better soon.
