I'm learning that my husband wants me to be the driving force behind all of our decisions. It drove me absolutely nuts (ok, drives me absolutely nuts).
I mean, I don't want him to be "the boss," but I don't want to be the boss either (though "the boss" is one of his nicknames for me). Can't we cooperate, or at least alternate in the decision making process, and not just on the big things, but on the little things too?
I guess not, because he's happiest when I TELL him what we're going to be doing. Funniest thing is my mom is VERY bossy, and my dad very passive. I married my husband BECAUSE he seemed so assertive and confident. And he is, he just wants me to be more assertive and more confident than he is.
Oh well, I guess I need to practice my *****iness.
