My husband woke in a terrible mood and this did not improve all morning despite the lovely breakfast I prepared and I gave thoughtful presents. After a walk in the morning we came back and he just took over preparation of lunch - almost bullied me out the kitchen - I was so upset. I often feel that he takes over lots of things and that I can't be myself in my own home. He made me feel useless and I had wanted to make a nice meal for us - just enjoy the day. After lunch I was tired from the day and, like many people, fell asleep in front of the TV. I woke up to find my husband not there. I went upstairs and caught him looking at porn on the internet. I went mad at him. It was not the fact of the porn but the fact he sneaked off on Christmas Day of all days to do that in our home. I feel so hurt. The argument turned nasty and he said some terrible things to me - that he couldn't stand the way I looked and I was unfit and made no effort what was the point I was a mutant. I am none of those things. I felt so worthless and insignificant on Christmas Day. I feel like I just can't get over it - how could he be so cruel? I don't know what to do next.
