Good point. Maybe he is indeed feeling this way. I wouldn't say I am controlling. Because I would support him if he wanted to do something. Like he mentioned his friend was talking about maybe going to a couple car shows this summer and they would be a 4 hour drive or so so his friend usually stays the night. He kind of looked at me hesitantly when he said it. Or like he was feeling it out. Like saying "friend" said to see how you would feel about that or if it would be okay. I told hubby sounds like it would be cool.Then I told him I am not your mom so it's not like you have to get permission. But I do appreciate asking if it would bother me.
The only thing I am controlling about is I don't want him to drink and drive with the kid's if I am at work. He has this one friend who is such an alcoholic this guy pushes alcohol on everyone.
I was 21 when we met and he was 27. I am 34 now and he is 40.
Just like money, at first he wanted me to do the finances. Now he wants his own checking. But he is soooooo not good at finances. I am trying to keep my mouth shut about it though. What he wanted and asked for at first on some things is what he views as me being controlling about now. Ahhhhhhhh men sometimes we can't figure them out. LOL
