Lesson Learned
NEVER, NEVER share your true feelings with your spouse!!!
If you have suppressed your anger, frustration, and resentment to the point of feeling the need to express oneself in an all encompassing e-mail to your loved one...DON'T!!!
Send it to a friend, colleague, acquaintance, a street person. Under NO circumstance send it to your spouse. Take the advice of Homer Simpson. Push the anger, frustration, resentment down to a bitter little ball. NEVER reveal your feelings, always take the high road. Always be stoic and suck it up. It is always better to just deal than to deal with the aftermath of the ill written e-mail.
Trust me! Bitterness with a happy face is better than a sad, unresponsive, hurt, pained spouse, who had NO friggin clue you felt any of those things!
So... Lesson learned: Just smile and suck it up!!!

So true.
Also screaming your true in-the-moment-feelings at the top of your lungs is not such a good idea either.
Poor spouse.
I am sure he forgives you.
