I think you have a point here. My H has only recently begun to stand up to me, or really....say things that he never would have...like differing opinions etc. He would never disagree with me about ANYTHING in the past, with the exception of the work he does. Why? Because he thought I'd get angry, or not like what he had to say. He assumed I'd have certain reactions...so he never spoke up. I have no doubt he thought many things, he just never spoke up. He's beginning to get over that fear now.
HD...speak up to her man! Say some of those things that run through you mind. It's good for you. If she gets pissy, let her...don't bite.
BTW...if anyone wants a chuckle, this is what my poor H gets to live with (a female version of Bill Engval I'm afraid). My H has a HORRIBLE snoring problem....so I occasionally have to sleep with ear plugs in. This morning around 3:30am I sat up after he started snoring to put my ear plugs in. My H rolls over and this was our convo:
H: What are you doing? GEL: Putting in my earplugs. H: Was I snoring? GEL: No, I just haven't worn them in awhile and thought I'd better make sure they still fit.
Apparantly he told that to most of the guys on his dock this morning....at least he got a laugh out of it LOL.
