[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH went along with everything I wanted when we were dating and engaged, and that's the pattern I expected to continue, but it turns out he is very opinionated and particular about a lot of things. It's fine for the most part. But it would be easier if we didn't have to negotiate every little thing every day.[/quote]

May be he is seeing similar changes in you. Why not talk to each other about how to make life more efficient and pleasant.[/quote]

This, above, OP. What have you said to him about your feeling that you must negotiate everything, every day? What discussions have you had together about this? What changed since you got married, and what subjects are really the triggers for his opinions and "particular" demands--money issues? Kids' schooling? House improvements? Issues with his or your family?

If you've never sat down and talked about this in a non-accusatory way, and tried to work on it as a team, you and he arent' communicating like an effective couple. If you have tried and were met with resistance, you and he need to find some kind of couples' counseling focusing on communications. Let this fester, stew about it and vent to strangers, and you achieve nothing but a buildup of resentment. [/quote]
