Hmmm...trying to figure it out. Maybe he didn't like that here you both were working hard looking for a home together, and this one didn't pan out ...and you suddenly "claim it" so to speak, as something happening to YOU. Not to both of you, but to YOU. Sort of cuts him out of the picture altogether in a way. It also makes it into a self pity kind of thing instead of something you are facing and experiencing together. Self pity tends to push other people away, because there is no room for anyone other than yourself. Don't get me wrong, self pity has it good times and uses. I don't mean to sound harsh, but you asked, and that's just a feeling I got when I read it and put myself in his place. In his place I would have felt shut out and pushed aside if my DH had said something like "Things like this always happen to me", it would have definitely annoyed me on several levels.
I wish you luck with finding a good house!
