Not sure its just a "man" thing. To be honest that describes me a few yrs back. When I was in the grips of my personality disorders. I was outraged that people/hubby could dare to enjoy themselves and not focus on the attention on ME! geez I shudder thinking about it now. What a selfish imature controlling ***** I was. No no, I must have emphaphy, I was sick and didn't no how to act any differently.
Growing up verbal communiation consided of being told and not being able to discuss. Sulking was a power tool I used to try and get understood, Didnt get the chance to develop communication tools.
If I were you, I would address your husbands "mood" ask him is there something he wants to talk about? did he not enjoy the evening? Let him know that its not acceptable to behave in that way. Your both adults. BUT remain calm at all costs, don't let his non verbal actions have power, or he will only learn that he gets exactly what he wants this way?
