Question, I exude masculine energy because my husband put me there. He has pleaded a few times now that he wants me to be “submissive” hate that word with a passion now. He has asked me to allow him to lead. Our marriage, our family you name it. This is very hard for me. I have had to pick us up many times that this is now my norm. Honestly, I DONT want it! Im exhausted. I have taken the step back and have opened the door wide open to have him take the lead. He has noticed and now has a problem with things… in some things he claims everything that comes out of my mouth is “disrespectful” all im doing is speaking my half and he cant stand it. No more “safe space” to share what im thinking? We actually used to communicate well, he understood me before I even tried… wants the title but not do the work? I’m at a loss. What advice for the love of Pete…. It’s like the whole cake and eat it to thing? We are like magnets and not facing the right way. He feeds off my energy of me opening the door for him to lead, takes it negatively and reacts reactively. Im left with my shoulders up going LEAD! Wide open… this is already difficult for me to even open the door I’m trying… so when I get there and being met with disappointment? Is that the right word I feel like it’s more damaging than what was even going on in the first place….
