[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, I already stated that he has anxiety and is in therapy for it. Do you really think that is going to change from a few comments on DCUM?

No, we are hoping to snap YOU out of dancing to his tune and accommodating his unreasonable requests regardless of whether or not they come from an anxious place. You are acting like these are valid requests for him to make and that you have to work within these boundaries. You don’t. You shouldn’t unless you really really want to spend a ton of time being a caterer. When are you going to actually interact with your guests?

I am not being rude here. I have a child with severe anxiety and a lot of issues around food and I’ve done a lot of work with professionals around this and the more you treat it an anxiety based limit on your life as reasonable/acceptable the more you enforce that they were right to be anxious.

The fact that he’s expecting you to do all of it is the part that takes it from an anxiety issue to a control issue and really unacceptable. You have the choice to speak up and say that is more work than I’m willing to do. And he can work with his therapist to deal with it. [/quote]

+1 I hope you take this to heart op. You are acting like a doormat in trying to accommodate your husband’s unreasonable expectations and it’s sad to read about. [/quote]
