Argh! That ignoring bit he does strikes a nerve for me, it was
something my AH used to do, and I ignored the behavior at first.
Then for a while, I started treating him the same way, and he
noticed, as I was never rude in that way before. I thought he would
start an argument about it or something, but he stopped doing it.

I found it easiest to do when he called from another room or if
I was busy and had my back turned toward him. I was however,
prepared to discuss it and ask that he stop the behavior, but I
didn't have to.

Not saying it would work for you, or the most mature way to
handle it, but my solution.
