[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Unless you're really afraid for your safety, which is a different issue and doesn't sound like the case here, I think you just have to retrain him and yourself that you are an equal partner. Yes, he may complain for awhile, but he'll get over it and in the long run it'll be better for both of you. You're not a child and he doesn't have to be your parent. I know in my case my husband wasn't really the jerk; I was being a doormat, which is frankly annoying and invites people to walk over one. So, you know. Stop doing that, is my advice, for what it's worth. It's hard because a lot of us are raised to be people pleasers, but it's really ok to stand up for yourself as an equal in your marriage. [/quote] +1 to this. Op, you need to push for the boundaries. I don’t think it’s him controlling, it’s hisbpersonality with money. He’s stingy. It probably runs in his family. That’s why they got wealthy.[/quote]
