Is he crazy?
So my husband and I got into it again. This is the second time he has told me that I have "never worked" for anything in my life. Now, I do not know where he gets this. I served my country for five years right out of high school in the Navy. After the Navy I have graduated and gotten certified as a Medical Assistant. I've worked in a couple of ER's and ICU. I'm currently in college (part time) working toward my BSN AND working part time. Yet, he bought me a car when we first got married because my engine was about to blow. I could not afford a decent car at the time and frankly, I felt that I could get one on my own. However, he felt that he should get me a car and he did. So, now he holds that and the fact that he has so much more money than I do over my head. He's a day trader, I'm a CSA at a local drug store. I needed "my" car today, he was working on it and we got into a blow out. He went as far as to tell me as he has in the past that he'll "take" my keys.
I am an adult, a woman past her twenties and this man is treating me like a kid. He never wanted kids. I always feel that he is controlling me because I am not as healthy as him, etc. I've been sick for the past 2-3 years and unfortunately, I will have to have several tests and a couple procedures in the new year. I want so bad to make him eat his words. I refuse to hear his non sense and I will not tolerate his words because they are FALSE. I really think he enjoys making me feel like I have nothing because when I told him I was going to get my own car he laughed and said "with what?"... What an ass! He has it all. The close family (I'm only close to my paternal aunt), a big house, a nice truck and a car that he says is mine. He's a part time college student, a day trader, and yes, he is retired from the military due to being wounded.
I wasn't wounded. I was fortunate to be in the Navy and at sea VS. shore. I had a rough childhood and had to grow up very fast like many have. I survived. I keep surviving. That is all I know how to do...
What would you do and/or how would you feel if you were in this particular situation?
Re: Is he crazy?
If you're married how is everything his or yours still? It should be our money, our house, etc. Get that lawyer.
Chronically hilarious - you'll split your stitches!
I wrote a book! Bucket list CHECK!

he's got a whole control issue tied up in that dopey car. Let him have his car back and you make sure he hits the road for good while you're at it --- I wouldn't tolerate the control issue.
If he is this controlling with a car, what else will he control next???
