[quote=Anonymous] You sit him down and explain that what he is doing is emotional and psychological abuse. That you will not stand for it, and that you have the right to the modern conveniences of daily life. You are not his slave, you have the right to your own opinions, and the right to live a happy life. You show him the number of hours he spends every evening on his phone, and throw back at him the "addiction" argument. You conclude with saying that his controlling behavior is grounds for divorce. I had such conversations with my husband, years ago, OP. He has Apserger's and OCD traits and did not seem to understand that what he was doing was tantamount to abuse. We had many fights, nearly divorced and saw a therapist, until he saw the light. Next fight: the joint account! If you can work a regular job, please do so. With our visa, I am not allowed to work, so I am still economically dependent on my husband. Obviously I did not imagine when we got married that he had these controlling tendencies. [/quote]
