Do men get PMS?

Hi I have been with my boyfriend for a year and eight months, and have been engaged for the past five months. I have been confused by the way he acts sometimes. I had a family dinner with my parents and his parents. Earlier, or before the dinner, he sounded as though he was not in the mood to go to the dinner. When he brought that up to me, I told him he was right after telling him he should have known that my family and I were invited to go. At that point he said, but dont you think my parents should have asked me first if your parents could come?aid i dont know, youre puting me in an uncomfortable situation by asking me that. That was when i noticed he was getting angry. I also noticed that lately he is not in the mood to be around his family. He would rather be doing something else, like making other plans with me instead. I am confused because after the dinner we had tonight, he was complaining how tired he was. He really had looked tired, and I know when he looks tired. So i told him, "Go to sleep, go home." He then said okay, "Come home if you want." He then went to his house. Since he lives on the same premises as his parents house, I was easily able to go back to his house, only to drop something off. When I got in I said, "hey I need to put something in your fridge for your mother, and he said, "No take that crap out of here I dont want that in here." So i said, hey, I did not come to your house to see you, I came here to drop this off in the fridge. He then said, "I dont care, take that out of here." I then told him that I did not come to his house to see him, but really to drop off something else. He mentioned that he didnt want to fight, and then said just leave then! so I told him what is your problem? He then said, I dont want to fight, so either shut up and stay, or f***ing leave. So i left. I am now confused. Why was he not wanting to stay around his family? Is it possible he got so angry that I was not being understanding about his parents asking him first, if my parents could come? maybe that was why he was getting tired? I feel like he had major PMS..I am confused because I want to teach him never to speak that way to me again. How could I teach him that? During the diner he mentioned Im just going to go home, and announced out loud, you could come if you want....When he said that, I was so annoyed. I felt like what the f**k was that all about!? There I was, he went to his house, and I am at the end of the dinner.. left there to be around his family and mine, while he went off to sleep, without even asking me to comeover, only IF i wanted to! I was so pissed, that when I went to his back house I told him Im only there to drop something I had in the fridge, and then leave. So thats when he said fine, I dont want to fight just leave! I left..do men PMS?
