Title: new to thread Post by: olrun on February 09, 2017, 06:56:19 AM My partner and I had a huge argument. I go to bed early and like it dark. He turns on the lamp and leaves the room. I turned it off. He came back in and turned it on and went into the dark bathroom. I mutterd "What the heck, did he turn on the lamp and leave the damn room again". The response I got was F... .You. I was coming to bed. It never bothered you before. F... .U, I'm sleeping on the couch". I apoligized and got more FUs for my trouble. He tends to blow up about every 2-3 months. Great guy otherwise. Times like this I want to leave, but can't finacially. Today, I just can't deal with it.
