Well, unless you know something I don't, that's my point for bringing it up.

You can get an education as back up. I have a Sociology / Psychology Degree.

A marriage made up of two ADULTS; with the husband using the trump card (authority to make a decision they both can't agree on) in the rarest of situations, based on a matter of great importance.

NO caveman mentality.

The truth is the men do need to make decisions...it's the way that God created them...in that order...the problem is women are having to make decisions because men have been too stupid to do so...

A husband that makes a decision sometimes supported by the wife..sometimes not (agreement is not always a test of love) but once the decision is made and acted on the wife will have much more respect for him than if he was wishy-washy... and undecided all the time..

good points bf, the world is different and we have seen those scenarios play out, we need to live in this century , since we are here , lol, you are right it is actually his fault he let her create that mess, and now you have to fix it, somebody has too, so you are the woman for the job, or at least to point it out, god bless you for taking care of your self in a very real world, i wish the cookie cutter world existed but for most of us it doesnt, dt
