I am needing to learn to drive a manual. My hubby is away for work currently. My parents came over and me my dad and dogs went in my husband’s ute to take the dogs out for a run at the park.
I have anxiety and procrastination of learning to drive this manual. I overcame that and drove back home with my dad’s instructions ( I know how, just need the practice and too feel confident)
Anyway I was so excited I actually did it. When I rang my husband later on I told him. He had a day off and i told him he should of at least text me to see how my day was going since he wasnt actually working this day. When i told him about the drive And he starts to go a
bout how I already knew how to drive and pretty much kills my excitement. I tell him this and we get over it and then I say I did a hillstart (to reframe it that i did do at least something new in it) and then he said I hadn’t taught you that because you were still learning ( I was forced to cause I stalled on the hill) and then I asked if he had a problem with my dad teaching me. And he said he wanted too. And that I should of told him this was happening.
This is when I started getting really sad and upset. He ruined my excitement and made me feel like I have to run everything past him and walk on eggshells when it comes to my parents doing stuff.
I feel like my brain and my ability to learn shouldn’t be controlled by him. And I just don’t know. I wish he was supportive and happy that I got over a bit of anxiety.
I really just want to know if I’m the asshole or him. (I know i can be sometimes when I’m not thinking straight.)
