Height isn't this dating misfit's only challenge

By Amy Dickinson, Tribune Content Agency on

Because you are so specific with your desires, trigger happy with first impressions, and shallow in your own judgments, the only surefire way for you to determine if your height is causing you to be a dating misfit would be for you to grow a few inches taller.

Get on that, and get back to me.

Dear Amy: My husband and I have been married for eight years. He is a great provider and awesome dad.

His issue is that he does not respect women. I struggle with this lack of respect daily.

Recently, he had a birthday. He was not satisfied with the efforts I put in to celebrating his birthday. I gave him a couple of gifts that I knew he would like, but he was dissatisfied, and he sent me a text message riddled with profanity.

Whenever he has issues with me, this is what he does. He said this was the worst "f...." birthday ever and next year he wasn't buying anybody any "f...." thing. He then made reference to my son from a previous marriage, and said that I am happier when my son comes home, than I am when he (my husband) comes home.

 

This totally caught me off guard. I am really tired and saddened.

He has done this before and it always seems to come out of left field.

I don't even know what to say or do anymore.

How should I handle this?
