[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think I did three things right.

1.  I found someone compatible with me.  My husband is not perfect, he has some significant flaws, but those are the flaws I can deal with or tune out from.  He will probably say the same thing about me.

2.  I did not do it on purpose, but while dating, we spent lots of time together- just the two of us (long distance dating makes you do that).  I was shocked how many marriages fell apart during Covid, but then realized that many couples have never been forced to spend much time holed up together and had no idea how they would function in that closed loop.  We did and liked it.

[b]3.  Contrary to the popular advice from therapists, I am very direct and don’t do manure sandwiches.  I am not waiting for a “better” time to have a conversation or look for gentle way to tell him that e.g. loud chewing is disgusting.  I just say hey, cut that out.[/b]  [/quote]

Huge red flag here. What you did right is that you married a submissive man. 
Even simps like your DH have a breaking point where they stop putting up with your BS.
