I can guarantee you that she doesn't control any part of my life.. I'm pretty up front with who I am and what I like. She has complained about a couple of things about me, and I've told her that it's just who I am and that if she isn't happy with it, I'm not going to stop her from walking away.
I think it's the whole woman trying to change her man but can't thing going on. And don't get me wrong, she isn't always like this. Otherwise I wouldn't have been with her for 18 months now. But **** is it annoying. And if it persists, then I just may have to end it. I can only put up with it for so long.
And you're one of the lucky ones Airtime. Not many people can find their perfect match.
It is good you realize it early and check that behavior early.
A straight up conversation with the bottom line being "this is my time, you were aware of this when we got together, and it will remain that way" is all that needs to be said, and she can dig it or get the hell out.
I equate stuff like that to misrepresenting themselves... pretending to understand and be fine but waiting for the opportunity to stamp it out.
That is just as disingenuous as if you were to bust your ass at work day in and day out, move in with her, and then quit your job and eat cold-cuts off of your stomach while playing video games and farting during her book club meeting.
