Jen, my hb does this too (leaves the house without a cell phone, I always have
to remind him). I think he just doesn't want me to be able to get ahold of him
when he's out. LOL But I like for him to take it when he is shopping in case I
think of something else I need. Maybe you could tell him that. I am working
on the anger, too... I catch myself taking my frustration with him out on the
kids, and I don't like that. We are going to a communication class this weekend
so I'm hoping and praying that it makes a difference. However, I read recently
in a really good book (The Wizard of Oz and other Narcissists) that they can
learn to communicate but it is really an act, that they still don't care about
your needs and feelings until they get at the root of the problem through
therapy. So it's a little depressing b/c I don't think my hb will ever admit he
has a problem. It's like he needs an intervention but me and my family (because
he is disrespectful to them too - an
extension of me, I guess) are the only ones who see it. Everyone else thinks
he is Mr. Wonderful.
