Re: The Whinging Pom (whine bar).......warning may contain nuts
Think you need to have a really good talk once he is home & explain how he has made you feel. It is sometimes not enough to just ignore it & let it blow over, doing that can build resentment & he needs to realise that.
We all say horrible things in anger on occasions that we don't mean, so don't take that to heart. Did he have a good reason for wanting to take the job in Turkey, eg is he worried about finances, could it lead to more work? Were you possibly being a little unreasonable too?
Just playing devils advocate so don't shoot me!
Think it is funny though that he insulted you in English! Were you arguing in Italian up until then?

His excuse was .......... you haven't actually booked anything yet for holiday.
My reasoning was : booked or not booked it's not a problem as September is not july and there are any number of places available .... Point is you knew that was only week available before school. Surely you can count too ! So why say yes to job in Turkey ?
Row was in Italian and English because i too got so mad that I let off quite a few eff offs and shut up now and leave me alone and eff off to your pal's house like you said you would ......... but his English is good enough and our kids are bilingual as i speak English with them and he listens all the time.
But you ARE RIGHT ....... even though it started as something stupid it got a bit too big and even when I asked him to stop and leave me alone and enough said (because i knew I was at the point of smashing something just to shut him up - shock treatment kind of thing) - he STILL carried on and I need to tell him that it's not on and that I felt like cutting his throat just so he couldn't go on calling me stupid or ignorant.

Funny how an anonymous conversation sometimes does more than a real one!

bitching - moaning - laughing and bemoaning the fact that there isn't a fish supper to be had here for love nor money !!!!
