I've arranged sterilisation operation with my doctor. We've discussed all the ins and outs and the risks etc etc. But then he says I need my DP's signature to go ahead. So I've got a form to take home where DP has to sign and return to the surgery.
DP is fully onboard but I object in principle to having to have DP's agreement to the procedure. I'm an adult and I fully understand all the issues involved, including those relating to my own relationship.
AIBU to be annoyed or is it perfectly reasonable for my doctor to check that DP has no objections? And why can't the doctor just take my word for it?
Have others had similar experiences?
