[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does he say when you point this out to him?

I have a similar husband problem: all he wants to hear is agreement with his views. He denies this, of course. He has a high IQ and is often right... and I think this has played into his inflated sense of self. He just cannot accept when he's objectively wrong. And when it's merely a question of opinion, he still wants to somehow "win".

He's gotten worse with age and frankly it makes him unlikeable these days.

He’s said “yea you’re right, I’m trying to get better about it” when I’ve pointed it out.

I’m just sort of bitter about the whole thing because for so long he made it seem like he settled for me because I couldn’t have these discussions, and I genuinely thought he was so much smarter than me. Now that I’ve had the time to learn these things, I see he’s actually not that smart. Anyone can learn these things and repeat them back in a conversation.

Which doesn’t make me love him any less. I still love him and think he’s incredible. I’m just bitter because I thought learning these things would make him hold me in higher esteem, and instead it just makes him mad. [/quote]
