My husband drives me crazy with the way he drives my car. Seriously. He for some reason feels the need to put us foot thru the floor EVERY time he takes off..no matter where we are..the other day he took off at the drive thru so fast I don't know how I didn't spill the 3 drinks in my lap.
He says that is a sports car so is meant to be driven hard but DAMN! He has only driven like 5 or 6 times because I LIKE to drive my car..but it's begining to be a sore subject with me. The other day I was bragging about how high I had gotten my gas milage and he actually said to me "just wait till I get in it" !!! Who dies shit like that???
He's now taken to tellng people that I won't let him drive my car..at 1st it was just because I lve my car and like drivng it but now I'm actually scared to let him drive it. He took curve too fast the same night as the drive thru incident and I swear the only reason we stayed on the road is b/c of the tc and the fact that he had to mash the brakes.
And the kicker is that he gets pissy with me! He acts like I'm over reacting and that's not helpng the situation at all..
So as men..is there anything or any way that I can fix this? Short of just never lettng him drive Im at a loss.. He gets very defensive and there's NO way I can tell hm what I'm really thinking-that he can't handle the power my car has and I'm scared hesgong to wreck it..
Help!
Well the wrong thing to do is to tell him he cant handle the power of the car..that will only piss him off more. My girlfriend has a 1969 442 that she wont let me drive because she already knows that I am going to make it scream. So how does she prevent that..she has a real good hiding spot for the keys..I can't find them for nothing. If he can't handle it he shouldnt be hounding on it. I have no clue how you are going to keep him out of the car unless he gets his own. Put him on "restriction"(that tends to get us men straight). I don't know Chell, you are in a tough spot
