Hi,

Sometimes I feel upset when dh drives for longer journeys unless I specifically ask to drive. It bugs me a little when I see mostly women in the passenger seat. Too much time on my hands?

I'm a much better driver and enjoy it so much more mow I'm single and I've actually had the chance to drive a bit! It wasn't worth the hassle when with exdp because if he allowed me to drive he would criticise me and tell me what I was doing wrong, even when I was driving because he wanted to drink. Annoying!

I often let DH drive - as I am lazy and enjoy being chauffeured. That is if we go out in his car.

But, if we go in my car I prefer to drive.

I normally drive. DH seems to have no idea how to get anywhere via the quickest route. Drives me insane.

I know what you mean about it normally being men driving and women in the passenger seat as I've noticed that a lot too, but we're actually one of those couples - DP enjoys driving but I don't so it suits me to be the passenger.

YANBU, I'm guilty of it though as I know DH will get us there faster.

My DP would always prefer to drive but has had his licence removed due to an eye condition. He is very upset by this and sees it as an affront to his masculinity. I suppose rightly or wrongly he saw getting us around safely as a 'provider' role. I feel guilty when driving him now!
