I think he is doing this on purpose just to piss me off! *edit*
This week the argument was about me not answering my phone... while I'm in class!!! We have gone over this issue at least 2 times before... We already came up with a solution, which was DON'T call me while I am in class unless it is an emergency. That's reasonable right? I never turn my phone off during class, I just put it on silent just in case there is an emergency. Well, on Monday he sent me a text during class asking me some random insignificant question. I saw the text but did not answer because I don't want to text in class, besides it was not an emergency! He then proceeds to call me 7 times in a row. The whole class can hear my phone vibrating in my bag... The teacher asked if I needed to take the call and I said no. (my professor understand that I have a family and emergencies may arris while in class, that is why he says I can have my phone on vibrate) After class I called him back and he was pissed at me for not answering! WTF He tried to give me all these new conditions like: if you can't answer while in class just send me random letters so I know you are busy... NO! That is stupid! I am ALWAYS busy when I am in class! Just don't call unless there is an emergency! That has ALWAYS been the rule, why are you trying to change it now? He said we have never set guidelines for this situation. UMM yes we have!
Anyways, today I had my final exam. I sent him a courtesy text telling him that I was going to be in class from 1-3 and not to call me unless it was an emergency. He said ok. Guess what he did... He called me at 2! Thankfully I had JUST finished my exam and was walking out. He gets a pissy attitude with me because I am annoyed that he called me when I told him not to! WTF! How could he forget?
The issue here is NOT me having my phone on vibrate while in class SMDH... The issue is that my DH forgets every issue that we talk about! I know SOME of you ladies like to focus on the small details rather than the whole. Can you try to see the bigger picture here, instead of focusing on why my phone is on vibrate instead of off?
lol Dh forgets everything!! And then will get pissed when he mentions something to me and will say "I told you this 3 times already". No, No you did not. I remember things just fine (disclaimer: except when I've had a few drinks). But otherwise I remember so many more things then him. And he is always the one asking me for the 5th time, when is dds doctor's appt.? He has even said a few times that he is going to start recording our conversations because I don't remember them. Seriously? You can't remember either one of your dds birthdays? Don't remember how long we've known each other, don't remember what month or year you started so and so job, well I could go on and on. But I'm the one with the shitty memory. Okay buddy, whatever.
well, maybe you can start writing down the arguments, with dates, and once its settled, write up the settlement and have him sign it. LOL.. I know it sounds silly but some people just have crapy memmories. Me, I remeber everythign I see, but forget most of what I hear. If dh asks me to do something, he usually writes it down and gives it to me. I only need to look at the note once and its stuck in my mind, but if he just asks verbally, I will forget.
To me, it just sounds like he is being controlling and childish. Stand your ground. Let him know one more time that it is unacceptable to call you in class unless there is an emergency. After that, you may have to resort to turning your phone off or take it off of vibrate and put it on completely silent. Your other options are to block his number (which would be tough to remember to do and undo before and after every class) or deal with it. Obviously, just talking to him is not going to work.
Or something just came to mind... answer it and sit it in your lap and turn the volume all the way down. He will get the point.
Whatever first its common sense not to call while in class my dumb ass S/O does the same he will text stupid stuff while im at work or school and gets mad when i dont respond. He will blow my phone up until it goes dead. The reason i keep my phones on vibrate is the just in case it is an emergency. He can't respect that so honey i clearly understand. Sheesh
