I am impressed you tried to have a date night. I will not go anywhere in public with my AH, especially at night. I have had enough experience to know it will not end well. I am glad you posted this. I was wondering how other people handle doing normal things such as date night with their A's. My AH has left the past two weekends. He says he is staying here this weekend. I am wondering what I can do to stay away from him. I think you handled the situation beautifully. And please know that none of the things he says to you or about you are true. He is trying to hurt you and to get a reaction. Unfortunately, when someone is angry and the other person remains calm, it only heightens the anger in the other person. Because they are looking for a fight.
I agree with above post, treat yourself to a date night with a friend
