Not sure if I can really answer this from personal experience, havent really come across a "sulker"........but I think I would make him go and sit in the naughty corner until his attitude improved.And if there was no change.....call *next* !

It sounds like a basic character trait that he has and there's probably not much you can do about it now..It's a pain I know, but I'd say you either accept it, and work with it, or as ruby_blossum says "Next..."

Obviously Mamma spoilt him rotten and he will never grow up. It would have been the straw that broke this camels back as well. I cannot abide someone who sulks.....let alone to that extent. I dont even put up with it when the kids do it so I certainly wouldnt put up with it in a man. It sounds like the type of behaviour that ends up turning into controling and violent rages when he does not get what he wants.

Quoting 'missbowpeek'Hmmmm....tread carefully that sounds awefully more like manipulation than sulking........control over your behaviour Personally...I ditch and run...next (and try to let go of the desire to explain how grown ups behave you did good girl to let him loose...dont let him tempt you back I agree it’s actually a red flag for something more serious. When children sulk they do it for 2 reasons - either attention or to change the outcome. When an adult displays the same behaviour (as in your situation) it highlights one of two things, either a need for control through emotional manipulation or a lack of growth (for various reasons) in 'socially acceptable' interaction. If it’s a manipulation thing then you should address it immediately before it is habit forming. However if it is just immaturity then you have to ask yourself if what you get from the relationship is worth putting up with his character flaws?

thank you for the feedback. Just realised how dense I have been. It didn't even occur to me that this person was being manipulative. Gosh, that was a bit of a light-bulb moment! If I come across this trait again in a partner/friend I will definitely do the "ditch & move on" quick smart! Thanks again gorgeous peeps. A more enlightened KK x

My (on paper, soon not to be) wife is the same. She throws a tantrum everytime something does not happen when and how she wants or when something has to change. By way of examples ...broadband modem has a glitch and the facebook page does not load and goes offline ...meetup with friends somewhere and they do not answer their phone straight away because it is in their bag when she calls ...family are supposed to call her to say "hello" and when they don't she won't call them for months ...she cannot remember where she left something and decides someone else has moved it ...I get busy doing things around the house and something she wanted done first is left until later ...son does not get homework done straight away after school and he wants to play instead If anything takes a little effort her response is "why bother, I give up" . As you say it is very draining, especially after working all day, coming home to cook dinner and then having to listen to it all night. I currently endure for my son's sake hoping he does not follow the same behavioural patterns but I can already see signs that he is. ET
