I really like raptorduck too and hope none of my comments are to unseemly no matter how off the wall.
“He would have every right to be frustrated and I would totally understand that.”
Isn’t being frustrated different from refusing to talk to or ostracizing? that stuff is just down right hurtful.(I am a sensitive man)
I was in the opposite situation a few year when my wife and I set out to buy a property. I know way more about real estate and how to drive a great deal and speculate but she would get very unhappy with my choices even though I struck a compromise to stay in San Diego and I was building the house and it was my money I made prior to the marriage. We fought, a little, but we knew as long as it was on the table or even if it was off “life goes on”.We are fine several years later of course. We even lived through building our own house together. Raptor’s situation sounds more serious. Unless he is speaking figuratively which I think he is not. I wouldn’t feel right under those conditions.
I agree that the hostility towards Ms. Raptorduck is unwarranted and unkind.
I think the guys around here would give your husband a “high five” in place of the comments made about Ms. Raptorduck!I would.
