Yep, all valid points.

Wasn’t a criticism of you btw, but you didn’t take it that way, so that’s good!

Just a statement of fact.

Some marriages end up with pretty unhealthy dynamics around things like money, sex, chores, affection - and normally that’s because small compensations on one person’s behalf are allowed to grow. Fast forward ten years with it unchecked, and you can end up with a man-child or woman-child.
