Thanks everyone. You know - it is a pattern that seems to have been set than when we disagree on something and I need to tell him he might be wrong - he shuts me out. As Rhapsody said, he does not like to be reprimanded.

I examined my actions today as I really am frustrated and I now realize that I become very repetitive in an argument. That might be why he just wants to shut the whole thing out.

Anyway - at least there was no carried over "mood" between us today. That makes for a change!!
