What do you do when your better half takes a turn for the worse? When he's in a crabby, sourpuss mood, do you ignore it and hope it goes away? Do you stroke his ego? Try to cheer him up? Give him a lecture about looking on the bright side? How do you cope?

If & when my DH gets in a crabby mood ..
I will try to talk to him & se what the problem is.
If he doesn't want to talk about it ..
I leave him alone until he is in a better mood.
That usually doesn't take too long :)

I usually do the same as Hugs, said--then I just leave him alone & I go in the den to go on the computer or watch my tv !
