LylaJean....I sometimes act that way with my boyfriend. It usually comes when I feel frustrated by some of the things that are going on in his life that affect me in a negative way. I feel as if I'm always there for him (business problems, personal problems, etc.), but that I'm at the bottom of the list when it come to his priorities. This makes me feel insecure and it makes me doubt his feelings for me....Usually, I get angry and tell him off...but it doesn't stop there...I sometimes talk about breaking up and point out some of his failings (some of the problems are cause by his being too laid back and failing to take action soon enough) until he feels bad...he might even cry like your husband...then I feel horrible and all I want to do is comfort him. I guess, in a sick way, I feel as if he cries because he really does care...but this may be the only way that I ever know...since he doesn't always show it and he's not one to ever talk about his feelings. It's a bad cycle and I'd like to stop my side of it.
