My husband and I just got in a huge fight after he was away all weekend for the Marine Corps, and did a bunch of stuff that made me mad, long story.
He read an article and said something about it, I disagree and he threw a tantrum. So then we started screaming and yelling at each other. Great. Then said fine if I'm going to be like this he'd rather be in Reno so I told him to leave.
My mom (because we can't make enough money to move out still) heard this and started yelling at me.
It's been a super morning...how's your day going?
(As far as I know, H hasn't left, we're currently in different rooms). Plus he took my car this weekend, leaving me with his, which is sitting at my work because I couldn't get it to start...so he didn't make it very far.
Re: Super
awwww Kayla..

and thats super sucky - hope you two can cool down and come back to normalcy soon. fighting sucks...and when you fight about one thing, it makes you feel like everything else deserves a fight too.

I love you, Daddy...2/24/1953 to 2/13/2011
Well my mom heard me tell him "go ahead and leave if that's what you want" so she came down the hall and started yelling at me, telling me that's now how you have a marriage and blah blah so I slammed the door so H and I could keep yelling at each other and she wasn't yelling at me.
Then later she told me our fight made her cry and she told my dad about it, how can we tell each other to f*** off and such? That in 25 years of marriage they have never fought like that and we can't do that.
Then my dad said we need to knock that off under his roof. >.<
Even though we can't afford it, I'm looking up apartments as we speak.
H and I went to try and get his car and he said he hates living here because he feels like we're treated like children and that this is a handout.
We have enough money in our bank account to cover his very expensive uniform we have to buy ASAP. And a little left over....but that's about it.
I don't really think we can afford to move out, but I text him what I found.
i might have missed this, but is there not a base around you? Is he actively in the marines? I'm not sure i understand or maybe i forgot why you're still at the parents house. I know you were waiting for a transfer or something. But he should be getting BH pay and be able to get housing.
I'm sorry you're going through that, but i agree with your mother you shouldn't be yelling at each other like that. I'm sure you're under a great deal of stress, next time just try to take deep breaths or walk away for a moment gather yourself and then figure out what really is bothering you two before you raise your voice and say something you'll regret.
Good luck.

I was wondering the same exact thing... don't you guys get BAH which should cover living expenses? In the mean time, do your parents have a basement or something you could live in so the living areas are a little bit separate? One of my best friends lived with her MIL for the first 2 years of her marriage (and their daughter was born 3 months after their wedding) and she said it was very stressful.
Good luck, I hope you can work something out with the housing soon.
