I dated a guy who had a negative opinion about almost everything I said. It really grated on my nerves because he had to disagree or correct me about anything I said. I guess you can see one of the many reasons why I am no longer with him! But, seeing as how you are married, I'd like to suggest talking to him again. Its one thing to say you're sorry and continue the same behavior, another thing to try and modify your behavior for the sake of someone you love. I know he is sorry, but I also hope that he is willing to change his responses seeing as how much his words hurt you. I don't think its simply a matter of you needing to put up with negative words. It will tear you apart in the end. I think this is something that you both need to work on. He needs to be more careful of what he says, and you should try to work on not taking his words so personally.
