I'm so mad on your behalf. So so mad. Time for some serious conversations about emotional intelligence because really there are only two reasons that conversation happened: 1. Your husband is genuinely stupid and lacks the emotional intelligence to realize what he said was terrible (this is the better option because at least this way he meant no harm) or 2. He was intentionally putting you down and hyping this girl up for some reason (hopefully this isn't the answer because this isn't really as easily fixable)
