Men who never let their wife do the driving

My husband loves the fact that I drive him around. Especially when we go out to any place with drink! He drinks, and I hate the stuff, so I'm the obvious desigated driver - the whole time! I don't mind though. And if I ask him to drive, he has no problem with that, so when I need a rest, I can have one too. He also doesn't mind when I pay the bill in restaurants! lol

I prefer to be a passenger so ican get some zzz myself. I am usually driviing the kids around and could use some zzz on long trips.

My husband does all the driving. I did get my license but he got upset with me having so much papers in the house that he cleaned it all out including my license, said I did not need it. And that meant that if I do get my license again, I have to go all through taking the driving course again and at $50 a lesson, too much to pay. So I guess when he cannot drive anymore (he had a stroke and has arthritis in his hands), he will have to take the bus or walk and with his stroke, I guess he will be stuck at home and not be able to go anywhere. I walk a lot, and I have friends. That will teach him. I think your father=in=law will regret that he did not let your mother-in=law drive.

We dont actually mind whoever will drive. The only thing he is concern of is my safety but other than that he doesnt mind at all if im the one driving. On the other hand i am not really interested of driving. Id rather just sit and let him drive me home. It was never an issue for us whoever will drive for as long as we get home safe.

I do 99.9% of the driving. Since my husband became ill many years ago he says that driving brings on major headaches. Here's my problem---during the first couple of years of his illness he was a volunteer fireman. When the fire alarm sounded, he would jump in the car and go to the station and drive a firetruck to the fire scene. BUT--on the other hand, he couldn't go around the corner to the store to buy a gallon of milk. This drove me crazy and still does. I dicussed this with his doctor and he couldn't explain it either. My husband's reponse was, "The guys know I'll be there." Still not a good enough answer for me. Whenever we travel, I drive to our destination and then turn the driving over to him. Makes no sense either. He won't drive around our town, but he'll drive some place else. Last week I became ill while driving. I pulled over unto the median of the interstate and told him he would have to drive. He said he didn't think he could. We were three miles from home. He asked if I knew where our dauthter was. I said it didn't matter where she was, she can't drive two cars!! So we sat there until I felt well enough to drive us home. I know this is all psychological. Over the past 19 years I've dealt with many psychologists and psychiatrists as well as studying psychology. Although my husband suffered his first major panic attack while driving an eighteen wheeler with our 8 year old daughter with him, I can't help but think he's playing me. The mind is a funny thing.

I always let my husband drive. We both prefer it that way. I think part of it is because I trust his driving more than I trust my own. If we were in an accident and I was driving i would never get over the quilt.
