[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Like we're currently hemming and hawing over a $35/year addition to homeowners insurance that the realtor thinks we should add.  Also whether the cleaners should come this week to our already mostly clean house (but there is work they could do - deep cleaning that they usually aren't able to do).[/quote]

These things seem like pretty small things and I wonder if the issue is one or both of you don't like to be assertive.  I mean, you said it right in your post, there are things the cleaners can do this week.  So they should come.  For $35 I'd just add the insurance.  It's $35.  You can always cancel it next year.

If its a lot of small things like this it just sounds like both of you are really overwhelmed (he may be overwhelmed with the prospect of all he has to do when you move/the area you're moving to/etc.).  When we last moved, I was a SAHM.  I don't think DH understood my anxiety about moving to an area I knew nothing about and didn't know anyone.  Being a stay at home parent can be pretty isolating.

I'm not trying to excuse his behavior, it just seems that if these are the things you're having issues over, it just sounds like both of you are really overwhelmed and neither one of you wants to be "the decision maker". [/quote]
