My husband (31M) and I (31F) have been married for 7 years and together for 13 years total. We have a 3 year old son and another baby boy on the way. We got into an argument today and although I am no saint, his flaw is that he always tries to walk out in the middle of any conflict with us. My flaw is that I want to talk things out right away and not just leave them be. We have gone to counseling prior to having children and we received some great advice from our counselor to schedule our conversations to a time he's more willing to talk to give his some space. My issue with my husband is that he refuses to return to conversations at all and just wants to shut me down everytime by walking away. Today was the first day that he actually left to his mom's house and he called me to say that he doesn't want to see me or talk to me and that he is at his mom's and is going to stay there for a couple days. He ended up hanging up on me because I was irritated that he called to say that he didn't want to see me or talk to me. It was obvious to me when he walked out the door, all he had to say was he was staying at his mom's. I feel like he says that after our arguments just to hurt me. I understand stepping away for a moment or going for a drive, but to leave for days is something I'm not willing to tolerate. I don't know how to approach this. My son asked where his dad went and I don't know what to tell him. But my biggest question is, how should I act when he does decide to come home? I don't just want to ignore it and play nice, I want him to know I wasn't okay with that and that I feel resentment towards him because of it. Is there a way to let him know without actually telling him? I feel like if I talk to him about it he'll just flip it on me and say that I'm the problem and that's why he needed to leave. HELP!!!
