I feel like my husband controls every aspect of my life except I get to decide what meat to buy and if we need more pasta sauce. He controls where we live, what cars we drive, he tells me to get a job but everytime I find a job that I want to do he says that isn't the kind of job I need to get so he dictates what career field I should be in and who to apply for. EVERYTHING! I am so sick of this shit.

That's what happens when the guy is the one "bringing home the bacon." It's ridiculous and sucks big time. The day I got laid off I told Michael that he can not revert to this way again. It's unfair. It's not like I chose not to work anymore. He should have enough respect for me to treat me like his equal. Let your husband know these things and how it makes you feel.

What does that mean, "can not revert to this way again."? What way?

controlling and telling me what i need to do or should do. it pisses me off.

Ahh, I thought you were saying that he said he couldn't revert to this way again.

DH saw the "My husband controls .." starting of the sentence and said "What do I control?" But see I asked him the other day "Honey, what decisions do I get to make?" And he basically said I make all the decisions. Then I asked "Well, what decisions do you make?" And he basically said he doesn't make any decisions. So I said "Well, dear, remember? You don't control anything. I do." Love that two way communication thing.
