    I've waited to weigh in. Some of the advice I see suggest seems to be more than "righteous push back" but rather "mean push back". I love what Triskeliongirl said here

    I'm not one to speak about control in a relationship (I have my own demons on that...) and if your hubby is military...control is probably ingrained in his psyche. That's not going to change overnight.

    I think push back offered in love makes a relationship stronger. One can be strong, decisive, and free without being mean...

    I forgot to credit them. You can get your very own pair of cycling oven mitts as "Etsy.com"

    And that's "Ms. B****" to you.

    I am seeing a lot of wisdom here; but I wonder if they are ready to hear the truth.
