Having trouble communicating with my husband…

I don’t know if I’m alone? I say A he understands B. And then makes me look like I am dumb by making faces. I don’t know if it’s me that can’t communicate properly, or him? Others can understand what I am saying. I am dyslexic so do make slight mistakes, but he knew this before we married. But I’m doubting myself. It kills me inside. But I don’t know how to improve this

Sometimes it’s as bad as just saying to each other leave it (when we can’t seem to get anywhere and it annoys him). If I was to give an example, I needed to buy shoes and a coat for the kids. We also need a hall way unit that stores shoes and coats. So he asked me if there’s a place for a ‘shoe and coat thing’ and I heard it as shoe and coat as we were outside, and I also have a cold so my hearings worse than usual. So I was trying to communicate where the shop is, obviously describing the wrong shop. And he was on about the house furniture and got annoyed.

This is and my husband I swear 🙃 I'll let him know we need something but fail to communicate whose going to be in charge of getting it. It's so frustrating especially when you have a cold 😭😭😭😭

@Elizabeth I’m so sorry your going through this as well :(

I think you both need to be patient with each other. If you misheard or miscommunicate, don't get annoyed with each other or be rude to each other.
