I think that he's got the entire picture in mind, and she doesn't.



You wouldn't do it behind his back, but you'd stomp your foot and say you're getting one anyway?



Gemy's right. This was it was trying to say all along.

It's a big decision financially, and there is a big commitment attached to it. It's also a lifestyle change for the household and something everyone should be in agreement with.
Ya pretty much. At one time I would not have done that, but I am older and wiser and more sure of myself. In my first marriage I would not do anything without permission. Well that did not work out too well. Had I done more of what I wanted, the marriage may have lasted, as it turned out, I was very resentful.

He told her to go ahead and do what she wanted, that is all I would need.
