Hey Betty.

Even without thinking about any potential future children, it’s not exactly ideal for you right now either is it?  It can get really tiring always being the one to have to build the bridges, especially when the event wasn’t even triggered by you in the first place..  Sulking and staying angry is a pretty immature way of dealing with conflict – it sounds like he’s pretty much retreating into defensive mode, probably because he knows deep down this behaviour is not that healthy and he’s probably ashamed to be copying his Dad even if he didn’t approve of how he treated his Mum.

Does anything in particular trigger the sock throwing? Does it happen when you assert yourself for example?  Are you guys able to deal with conflicting views outside this particular issue?  Is it the only thing you are worried about?
