DH is PMSing... what to do to cheer him up?

DH has been really grumpy lately and I can't take it any more! Sheesh.. I can only bite my tongue for so long. So... I am trying to think of something I can do to cheer him up, but I am coming up blank! I have a very busy 2 weeks ahead of me with my baby sister getting married next Saturday then Dh's cousin's wedding in Gatlinburg the following Saturday, which I am making the cake for, on top of work and a few work events I have over the next 2 weeks. But... I need to do something to get him out of this funk because it's stressing me out! Do you ladies have any suggestions?!?

  • Have you seen the movie The Hangover?  It will get anyone of of a funk.
  • or i guess I should say without sound vulgar, although it still kinda sounds vulgar...

  • Meh. When my H gets in that kinda way - I ask him one ? - does this have anything to do with me? So long as the answer is no, I leave him alone. And frankly - I go on about my merry way being ridiculous with the dogs, happiness cooking, and planning a good night in Nota-world. I've found when I try to cheer him up, he just gets more stubborn about being in a fowl mood. If I leave him alone and make it clear that the world is moving on without him, without it bringing me down, he comes back into smiling pretty quickly.
  • Usually I try to coerce him into going for a walk with me.  If that doesn't work, I let him funk it out himself.  And then I bake.  Brownies make everything better.

  • ditto DRockH

    Except she put it more nicely than I had thought of

  • I was going to give a naughty suggestion too Embarrassed.  Except that dh is supper on edge he won't go for it even if I tell him that he can be a passive participant, kwim?  I also agree with Nota-leave him alone if you're not the problem!  But yeah, sometimes i think dh gets PMS worse than I do.
