Hi all. Am in need of some advice. My husband and I have been together for 4.5 years, soon after we met I became pregnant with my DD and then with my DS. We then married as we were very much in love. However, sine marrying my husband has gradually become very controlling. I smoke and he has gone on and on at me to quit. I am willing to have Hypno and give it a go as is my Mum (who is 64 and he goes on at her too!), if he didnt go on so much, I may do it for my children, but woulndt be doing so at the moment, its purely to make him happy. He has now asked me not to drink wine in the week which I have agreed to. he now wants to know why I go food shopping twice a week and why if I spend £100 does the food not last all week? Money isnt just on Food its on Nappies toiletries etc., but you all know all this. It seems to be one thing after another he wants control of and I cant take it anymore. I just cant please him. He usually works 7 days a week 7 till 7 (we are comfortable so not because we are poor), he has a hot meal waiting for him whenever he comes through the door and on the 3 occassions he hasnt (becuase I have been out to dinner with friend which he knew and I asked him to get himself something out) he has gone mad. I dont know what more I can do. I used to be a mad party animal as well as having a great career and didnt meet him till I was 34 so have really settled down and tried my best. I dont know what to do. I dont like him really because of the way he treats me, but think I may love him still, but need to be able to breath, you know what I mean? He has no friends but I do and I feel guilty whenever I go out with them (once every 3 months), because he never goes out (I have encouraged him to try to do so), when I do go out I usually get quite drunk because its such a release to be away. Help me please....
