Last night I was explaining something to DH about a group of people that annoy me because of the views they hold. Let’s pretend the views are that “all cats are evil,” and I disagree with this view.



He replied and during this conversation said “all cats are evil.” I said, “hang on just to clarify, YOU don’t think all cats are evil, you’re saying that these people think that, right?” He got really annoyed and said yes of course but then said twice more in conversation that “all cats are evil” but again didn’t qualify this by saying “these people think that all cats are evil.”



So I was like, ok yes I totally see your point but just to clarify again it’s not that YOU a think all cats are evil, you’re saying this group of people are saying that?



He got really angry and went to bed in a huff.



This morning I got up a few hours before him. He’s just come downstairs and totally blanked me. I gave it a few minutes and said ‘ok so are you not speaking to me then?’ He replied ‘well you’ve not spoken to me.’



I said, I can’t believe you’ve come down in a huff and you’re still grumpy with me. He replied that I “knew very well what I meant last night, you KNOW that I don’t think all cats are evil, but you because autistic and had to keep asking me, keep going on at me.”



I said “well I can’t prove to you what I was thinking or feeling but you said three times that “all cats are evil” and didn’t qualify it, so I was thinking that while I thought I knew your thoughts on the matter you might have changed your mind. I misinterpreted what you were saying and you misinterpreted what I was saying.”



He replied that “I didn’t misinterpret anything.”



Now it looks like we’re not talking. WTF has happened here? WTF do I do now???
