Forget reasoning with hubby. Learn THE LOOK. When properly done, he will just turn and leave the room.
Make him a little gift....a shirt that says, "IT'S ALL ABOUT ME". He'll get the idea.
I divorced a man who had a complaint about EVERYTHING that interested me, even if it never cost him a penny. He is now married to a woman who watches his every step, and spends all his money, and complains about EVERYTHING he does. Isn't Karma wonderful, lol?
You really scored big. I think you deserve it. Happy Birthday.
