DP always taking driving stress out on me

I would welcome any views here. DP drives - I don’t. Whenever he has any ‘stresses’ driving, mainly not being able to find a space, or being stuck in traffic for ages, he will always moan about being the only driver and how he is fed up. I feel like he just takes his stress out on me.

Context - we are both in our 30’s, I’ve tried learning years ago but didn’t get on with it. I did tell him early in our relationship I’d try to learn again and he always references this.

I just feel like he shouldn’t take his issues with it out on me…

The people on here having a go at @Dann87 for ‘not getting on with it’ are likely the same people who say nervous drivers shouldn’t be on the road.

@Dann87 do you want to try again? Don’t be railroaded into it, you need to want to do it for yourself. Try it in an automatic, you might surprise yourself, and no one needs a manual in 2025 anyway.

Your DH married a non driver who said they would ‘try’. So maybe he could take you out?
