i have seen so many people feel insecure abt themselves and their life-partner. for instance,my best friend is registered nurse and husband is an clerk in office. their relationship is going through an very emotional phrase. husband wants her to quite her job and become housewife. i don't have any problem with housewives cuz i'm one of them. why the hell mens alwys ask women to sacrifice in relationship. these days women are working beside with their partners to make living better for themselves. sometimes ilfe partners become insecure and their behavior turn into bossy and take charge of everything in household. most people laid-back attitude to their partner's become control freak attidude. i'm not saying all the mens in the worlds are insecure and bossy life partners. i think it's all part of traditions and values. in my personal opinion to handle insecure and bossy life-partner is be patience and communicate more about showing real aspect of relationship. if they are still stubborn, then you jsut do your own things and be your own boss of your life and decision. what do you think abt this article? how can you handle control-freak, bossy and insecure partner? do you think coomunicate and consuling is the only way out?

i think they need to sit down and talk heart to heart. is he earning more than her? if so, that's reasonable. but if ego and pride is just the reason, then definitely they need to talk about it to clear things up. it's good to have an open communication with regards to these things to give light to the matter. being a housewife is a career itself, it's just that you just don't earn as much, LOL! it depends as well on what the attitude of your friend is. if she is bossy herself, and says things and makes him feel insecure careerwise, then she should change as well. it takes two to tango. a relationship is always give and take.
