Who's really the Boss?

Ok Who's really the "Boss" in your household? The Husband or the Wife, which one makes the final decisions on most if not all the "major" issues"? Or should it be 50/50? Or ? :wah:

Basically, it's 50/50. One time my husband did buy a vehicle without me even seeing it and it wasn't pretty around here LOL.

50/50 ~ we both have different areas of expertise

If you need to ask, it seems that kind of answers it.

:wah: And all this time I've been telling my guy tales of how the preying mantis rips off the head of her mate when she's done with him....Your way sounds quicker, LC!

To answer the question, it was my husband who made all the decisions when we were married. All of them. Beyond reason.

Today, since I am single, I make all the decisions for myself. When I have choices to make that affect my relationship, then we discuss them - but so far he's always been supportive. Pretty cool

Bill, only fooling with you! And I'm pretty sure you're are fooling to. "listing just a few Major Issues": Buy a new car, house, where to live, manage the finances, investing in stockmarket and how much and in what, plan on or not having children, etc. :wah: (Life altering things)

These type of major issues it would seem should be discussed in detail between the Husband & Wife as "partners". Each with 50/50 equal input!

In Ireland, most men will tell other men, I'm the BOSS. But deep down its the Woman Wife.

Ask the Mrs. :-6

Lady Cop, how puuuurrrrfectly SHOCKING!! Now just what WOULD

Miss Manners say hmmm?!?!?!?

My husband and I are 60/40 most of the time, and it switches back and

forth depending on the situation. Except there IS a certain feline member

of the household I got talked into against my better judgement...
