At our last session, dangus, where we discussed my "my-way-or-the-highway- -controlling-wife" ... you told me (as Voat's Agony Aunt) to "man up" and "grow some" which I found quite hurtful! Anyway...the approach I now take with her is what some might call "reverse psychology". For example. we have two favourite beaches X and Y. When a beach day comes about she'll inevitably ask me which beach I'd prefer to go to. If it's beach Y, I'll say Beach X because I know I'll be automatically overruled, which I am, and I get to go to beach Y, the beach of my choice! How clever is that!
