It is not actually "painful" drama queen.
You are just selfish and impatient.

It is hard to walk more slowly than is comfortable, just as I’m sure it’s hard to walk more quickly than ever s comfortable. Try holding hands with him (my husband does this, but still walks super slow so I feel like I’m lugging him along, like a recalcitrant giant toddler, lol).
My point is that I wouldn’t frame it in terms of disrespect, but more of comfort for each person. Tell him you’ll speed up (once you’re healed) and f he will slow down so you can try to meet me in the middle).
It is much easier to slow down than speed up. Come on. They aren't equivalent.
It really isn't, it's painful, especially when you have naturally longer stride, it hurts my hips to slow down for slow people. That said given that OP is currently recovering, her husband she at least make an effort to match her pace.

+1 if that is the case, absolutely. I assume OP's DH used to walk next to his wife in the early years.
I have never seen a man meander when alone.

My aspie spouse does this to everyone- me, the kids, the grandparents.
Starts walking and just shuts his brain off like he’s the only one on the outing. It’s rude and self centered. Or aspie too.
