Arghh.

I had an ex-husband who would do a similar thing. I had to beg and plead to have 45 minutes to do some exercise, alone, in the basement - not even outside of the house. He just couldn't deal with me wanting to do something without him, and became real resentful, and would sabotage my efforts. I finally resorted to locking the door. I gave up when he would use his cellphone (from upstairs) to call the house and wait for me to pick up just to say,'I LUUUUUV you - when are you coming upstairs!' Arghhh. He had to GO. Now, I'm with a man who rides, supports and encourages my habit (I think he's getting me a bunch of jerseys and bike stuff for my birthday tomorrow!!!!) and helps me clear out my schedule so that I can ride - alone! He's the best. I'm gonna let this one STAY!
