Rapture,
You got me so tickled with the "Big Boy Britches". LOL
He loves to work outside, so that helps in the summer. The winter time is really the worst. He will drive you bananas if he can't go outside to work. He doesn't read, doesn't like watching TV or movies unless I am sitting with him, and really and truly has no hobby at all. I understand about the negative comments. Mine does the same thing. It is like they know they are being mean, but do it any way. And mine will never say he is sorry.
Now on the other hand, I know he will do just about anything for me and he told my mom that I am his angel. Go figure. :)

I try to plan days just for us to do things together but he still wants my attention constantly.
Go buy him a new pair of jeans. Tell them they're his Big Boy Britches and he's to wear them every time you need to work on your quilting. Also explain that when he puts them on he'll feel empowered to do something for himself--by himself. Either that or teach him to quilt. :lol: :lol: And trust me, it could be worse. Mine is so insecure that he lashes out all the time with negative comments. Even though I know he doesn't really mean them they still hurt. I've been working so hard on making his grandson and great grandaughters quilts for Christmas and the other day he said that everything I make looks like s_ _ _! I know he didn't mean it but it still cut to the bone.
