Yeah that seems to sum up my husbands position on everything. So tonight the printer wasn't working and I had spent over an hour trying to get my print out, in the mean while dh is in bed playing a game on his computer and watching me go 12 rounds with the printer, yes it is the "refurbished" one from the movie Office Space. I finally gave up and asked him if he could take a look at it. So I get the big annoyed moan as he throws himself up, and stomps over. I said something like, do you mind giving me a hand? Then he says " What's in it for me!" And no not in the cute or seductive way it might look in text. But in the, He 's the biggest, most selfish A&@?:!$ around, kind of way! Yes I must say that was such a reality check for me. So in response I said, "Well I guess I know where I stand in this relationship " And then he actually said these words as I walked away, " Yak...Yak...Yak!" I would laugh if I wasn't crying inside. My mother was right.
 
I hope you feel better after venting here. Sorry to hear your husband is like that, my boyfriend can be a bit like that sometimes, but let's face it... many men have the tendency to be a bit selfish. Not all of them of course, but many of them are. The best advice I can give you is to try to cope with that, I know is hard, but is better than actually thinking a lot about it. Whenever something like this happens I just try to forget about it and try to get busy with something, so my mind doesn't start obsessing over what just happened. It takes some practice.
