If I was wrong I'll go apologize.

DH left the light on on the stairs.

I turned it off.

He said "leave it on, it's dark without it."

I said "youngest kid is 8, and perfectly capable of finding a light switch. The light will shine in our room and I know this is silly but it's really bright and bothers me. Can we please leave it off?

DH said "I said leave it on."

I said "that's why I have a nite light plugged in on the stairs, so there is some light but not enough to keep me up. its such a small thing but us important to me."

DH said "the bulb is burned out."

So, I replaced the bulb.

DH got mad and said "you just HAVE to make me wrong, I'm sleeping on the couch!"

I said "no, I wasn't trying to do that at all. I'm just trying to find a good solution for both of us. it's called compromise. I give a little. You give a little."

He was like "no it's just all about you! You you you!"

I said, " If I had my way there would be no light. You want a light, so I did the smaller bulb in the night light. If you want, we can just sleep with our door closed and put the big light on."

He said "I'm not sleeping with you, all you care about is yourself."

So I got mad and told him not to bother coming to bed at all, if he wants to punish me for trying to compromise, well he can just stay out there until he remembers I'm not one of the children, and he can't punish me like I am.

If you think I'm wrong, tell me and I'll apologize.

You're right. And its wasting electricity to leave it on if its not needed.

The one about light on the stairs? First time in 2 years living in this house.

I always turn the light off before I go to bed out of habit. He's never said anything.

Me making him "wrong" and him getting mad and sleeping on the couch? Every time I win an argument.

How often do you guys have this argument?

Someone's projecting....

from what I've seen, most of the time guys go on about all you care about it yourself, what they really mean is:

• you don't give me enough blow jobs, or if you do, you don't let me cum in your mouth 
• I don't get enough sex or the kind that I really want
• I'm having a affair, she has made me think that she puts me first vs you and I'm trying to make you feel bad for not being what I want.

I'm thinking it might be the last one.

I've learned to pick my battles in life, and this certainly would not be one of them. But I think you're past that point, so enjoy the bed for the night, lol.

I think you where technically right but maritally wrong. You told you to keep the light on and you did everything to make sure you could turn it off. It can be an affront to his position. I would apologize, not for changing the light, but for disrespecting him.
