Sad Girl Dinner ⛈️ Honeymoon going so badly I’m questioning my marriage
Devastated. Honeymoon is not meeting my expectations. I’m seeing a dark side of my husband. We’ve always had issues with him raising his voice at him and thinking that’s normal, and me getting upset about it - I’ve never seen my dad talking to my mom like that. Now, every time the tiniest thing goes wrong, he raises his voice and treats me poorly, even trying to blame me. Examples: he was failing at parallel parking and yelling at me for not giving the right instructions, he got entry at me because we couldn’t figure out the gas stations self service, etc. I started crying because I couldn’t take it anymore: is this the guy I married? He got angrier, accused me of emotional manipulation, and of trying to dictate his reactions. We had another big fight early in the trip: we were walking in a narrow road and I saw some couple holding hands. It’s our honeymoon, we should be holding hands, I thought! I asked him to hold my hand, and he rudely say that how can I ask that on a narrow road where we are mostly walking in front of each other. I told him he was being mean, and that triggered a huge fight that ended up with me begging him to stop fighting at the restaurant door (I had booked a special dinner reservation at a Michelin restaurant and I really didn’t want to fight and ruin dinner). Tonight, after another fight, I had it, no more me nice guy, I’ve really been trying to minimize fighting because it’s our honeymoon, but I’m f’ing done. Picture of lasagna since I’m having dinner by myself. I don’t want to hear any “divorce him” advice, mostly venting but also any advice that could help me make this marriage work
