Yesterday I used a word that my husband did not understand. (The word was "epiphany," if you want to know.) So, we got into an argument that I "think I know everything" and I think he is stupid and I "pretend to be better than everyone else." And he demanded to know where I learned that word!!
Now, I know he was just saying all of those things because he felt inferior because he did not know the word, even though we both have college degrees. I mean, you learn new things everyday. Why didn't he just think "cool, I learned a new word?" Why did he feel he had to make me feel like crap because I used a word that was not part of his vocabulary?
