"Why aren't you dolling up for me?" Matt asked, but his tone sounded more like a provocation. "I wouldn't cheat if you were still beautiful and sweet in front of me."
"Do you really expect me to doll up to a huge turd like you?!" Kate lost her control when Matt blamed her. She got up and pointed her finger toward Matt. "I worked so fucking hard for both of us! All you need to do is sit back and NOT cheat on me! Is that so fucking hard for you?!"
Matt was caught off guard by his wife's outburst. He thought that he got Kate under control, but he was actually scared every time Kate yelled at him like this.
It made him feel small, and his pride as a man was insulted, but at the same time, he also didn't dare to fight back.
Kate had this oppressive aura around her when she was mad, and Matt was too much of a wimp to stand toe to toe against her, especially when, deep down, he knew that he was the loser in this relationship.
