All right.

Somewhere along the line, someone gave you guys a bad message about how our relationship actually works.

And someone told him and someone told you that your vote doesn't count and your vote counts.

So it just depends on how.

crazy you want to get to make your vote count.

Because my prediction is this, that as long as you continue to build up resentment and anger inside of you because he's treating you like a freaking doormat, the longer that goes on, eventually you're going to blow.

And when you do, your marriage will be over, and no one will be able to talk you into staying because you will have put up with this for 10 years or 15 years or eight years or whatever, and you will have had it, and no one will be able to dial you back in.

I've sat in coaching sessions with couples and watched their marriage come to an end because they let this stuff go on and on and on and on and on, and finally they blow up.

He's real calm and you're real sweet until you're not.

But this will come to an end because you're getting pretty frustrated.

You just called a couple strangers on a podcast with millions of people listening and told your story.

You're already pretty frustrated.

And so it's starting to build and I don't want it to blow.

And so, you know, I think, you know, honey, if we can't come to an arrangement where I have the same vote you have about our money and we both know what's going on with the money and my name is on the account and I have full access, there is going to be stress in the house, but it's going to be yours because I'm about to create some stress for you.

And so either we can come to an arrangement by Friday afternoon where my name is on the account and I have full access to everything and you and I are making financial decisions together, or I'm going to go see a marriage counselor and I'm going to ask you to go with me because I don't want our marriage to end, but that's where this is heading.

This does not end well.

It doesn't end well.

If you're the guy doing this, you're not taking care of the little woman.

If you're telling yourself that, you're so full of crap you can't breathe.

That is an absolute lie.
