Husband's Involvment...

Does your husband want to be included in everything? This includes decorating, buying furniture, painting etc....Basically things that men really dont care about. If so, how do you deal with that?

Re: Husband's Involvment...

  • Mine does sometimes.  At first I was like, "just let me do it!"  But now I am getting use to him wanting to be involved and it's actually nice sometimes.  We have alot of fun doing some of the things together.  Some things I have asked to do and he has given me the liberty to be over it myself with his opinion but not his help (like decorating) and I have done the same with some things that I wanted to do or be over and I let him do it without interferring and always giving my two cents.  We actually make a trip out of shopping and different errands and we have fun while getting to spend time with each other after a busy day or week.  I say let him be involved.  Looking back when I would complain about him wanting to help, I would have probably complained if he didn't help either.

  • Yes, everything. It gets annoying at times, but I let him do his thing. I try not to let it bother me as much, since I am such a control freak on most things, but I have calmed down and let him help make decisions on certain things.

  • He never asked to be involved which is fine with me b/c he was way to involved with the wedding planning!
  • If my husband is interested in it he takes control.  It drives me nuts sometimes because his way always has to be the best way.  I could suggest something and he always has to come back with a way to change it a little to make it his way and then it's fine.  Lord grant me the strength....he's into decorating our house now (do you feel my pain ladies!)
  • The only involvement DH wants to have is "how much does it cost?", lol. He pretty much lets me be as creative as I want when it comes to decorating and things of that nature.
  • Yes, my husband is up in everything except decorating. We recently chnaged our bedroom and he took over but it came out beautiful so I'm happy. Now he is all caught up in the new flat screen we got. All he has been doing is buying all the HD extras.LOL!
