I got married 3 months ago and I thought I was so happy. My husband has been my best friend for 4 years so it just seemed right. I always thought we were a normal couple with ups and downs. Thinking back now on our dating years, though,
I can see how destructive our relationship has been. We are two totally different people that enjoy different things. I always thought my husband knew exactly what to say to make me happy. Unfortunately, in the last 3 months of living together, I have realized he is different than I thought, even though I've known him for so long. He is clean and takes care of the house and I don't ever have to worry about money, but the way he treats me is a way I would never let my daughter, sister, or best friend be treated even for a second. He jokingly swears at me constantly, calling me a "stupid b*
" or "fat b*" and laughing about it so I "shouldn't get offended". If I do mention that my feelings are hurt by what he says, he blows it off or gets mad at me for being so sensitive. He also has a very short temper. He gets so angry and screams at me over the smallest things that are easily fixable and I just have to take it or he gets annoyed. Sidenote: my husband would never ever lay a finger on me or harm me physically. Now, don't get me wrong, I love my husband very much. We have so many happy, good days and memories together, and when we are happy, it's amazing. I just truly worry almost everyday that I might have let the brief good moments outshine the bad ones and I might have made the wrong decision. We aren't as alike as I thought and whatever I enjoy or feel or want to do is so irritating to him. I truly love my husband and want things to get better, but I have no idea how to make him hear me and take me seriously without annoying him or making him angry. Thank you for anyone that takes the time to read this and any advice would be really appreciated.
