    Its a male thing, they want control and its our job to put them back in their box. Mine can be the same although he is the main culprit for spending in the house and also the main culprit for winging he aint got no money lol, double edged sword isnt it. Hope things have calmed down nicely and that you are doing ok.

    My DH is just the same only shows a bit of interest now and again lasts about 30 seconds. I love this site as people here do seem to have a different understanding and you can have a great rant and it doesnt hurt anyone.
    Bet the house is looking clean now though :D

    Oh God has my DH found another wife..............currently he appears to be married to 7 other women on here!

    Adam - maybe you are well trained, could you rent yourself out to other men as my DH has just said when I asked where the £20 that was in the living room was 'its like being spied on' - gggggggggrrrrrrrrrrrr
