Yesterday going home on the bus after work we had a 'how was your day?' conversation (all through texting) and I said I couldn't wait to get home and get my pjs on.
He said, "Is it still shark week? Is that over yet?"
Now, I only knew what that phrase meant because I happened to read it in a Dan Savage column a few weeks ago. I thought to myself- this isn't going to go anywhere good.
"Almost. Thanks for asking"
"Hm. I find shark week to be tedious."
Long pause.
"Well poor you."
I. was. livid.
That is offensive in so many ways.
He finds it tedious when I menstruate.
First of all, I've had trouble with irregular cycles and I am mighty pleased when I menstruate normally.
He essentially told me I was tedious 25% of the time.
And that he thinks we fought because I was emotional, hysterical.
Not his fault at all.
