Husband is jealous when I spend time with adult son.

When I met my DH, my DS was 13, he's now 23 and we also have a dc together.
While DS was still at home dh seemed to get along fine with him, I think because he had some authority at home and I've always felt he feels he is more important than my DS but since DS has become an adult he seems to feel threatened.

Whenever I spend time with Ds he gets jealous and if I make plans he will try and say he wanted us to do something that day or if he'll be at work he'll call me when he knows I'm out with him and I feel as though he's just trying to avert my attention back to him.
He trusts me it's not that he doesn't know what I'm doing he knows for a fact I'm with DS and makes snide remarks like I guess you'll be seeing DS AGAIN today when he knows it's his day off.

If he'd been like this when DS was younger I'd have never married him or had our DC together but I am so angry that he resents me spending time with him and makes things as difficult as possible.
I'm constantly worried Ds Will pick up on his vibe.
I really don't know what to think anymore and I have our youngest DC to think about.

Put your son first. Switch off your phone when you're with him, tell your dh to stop that behaviour you won't allow it to continue. Your dh is an immature wanker.

Wow, he's actually a really controlling man. The moving of money incident was a doozy. The frequent phone calls are checking up on you.

You need to have your own bank account.

And start figuring out what your future looks like.
