Hey Wendy,

Reading your post made me angry. Why? Because its very rude of him to 1. be on you like white on rice about every little flaw (which we all have) 2. not give you props on the good things you have to offer (When he clearly offers up the bad) 3. I dont know what mollycoddle means….

Anyways, My reply is NO. Your not being overreacting or too sensitive. My advice is to tell him the classic line “If you have nothing kind to say, dont say anything”. As far as “facing the truth” just because he throws his opinion around doesnt mean its FACT. Tell him that, defend yourself. What might seem like a little problem after 3 years will be a real big problem in another 2 or 3 years if he doesnt fix his negative feedback because you will grow tired of the put downs.

Best of Luck, you deserve better. I as a man dont do that to my wife and wouldnt.
