My first DH thought he was the boss of the house. When he decided he knew better how to shop and gave me a detailed list of what I could and could not buy at the grocery store with coupons all cut out to use, I deliberately didn't buy anything on the list but bought everything not on the list. I piled it on the table and left a note saying EAT THIS. I packed my car, took 3/4 of the bank account and left and never looked back. I'm so glad I didn't stay and be a good little wife. I was 23 and stayed single for 13 more years. I had a great life making on my own decisions, then I met my DH who was everything I knew to be good.
