Hi,
I wrote the post in the middle of the night and thought I deleted it without notice.

Essentially he is nice except when he is not.
Most of the time I can deal with him either way.

Last night we were both stressed and he was horrible because
1 first I got caught up in his repeating talk in order to calm him, and then
2 responded in a way that did not satisfy him.

In these situations he accuses me of being un supportive because he wants to keep pushing and pushing his worries until I can't take any more.
. .. I know to leave the room and find something else to occupy myself -- except when I am stressed and my guard is down.

He got over it within minutes.
I'm not over it. I feel that he is cruel and selfish.
