Is my husband manipulative?

I woke up this morning to find my iPhone charging without its mophie case. I looked around the house and couldn t find it. I called my husband at work and he said he took it and is going to sell it on Craigslist. He said I don't use it properly and don't always charge my phone in a timely manner. He bought me my phone and the mophie, so he feels if he buys me something he has some type of lordship over that item. Another time he asked for money that he had given me back because I used some to buy a bottle of shampoo. According to him I wasn't using it as he intended. What do you all think?

Manipulative? Not necessarily. I would say that he is more arrogant and untrusting. He seems to think that he has some type of authority over you and that it is best to always follow his command. In that same way, he's being childish with how easily he seems to be offended when you disobey him (as he might think).

But I don't think that this is a reason to immediately break off the relationship. I believe that this could be resolved just by confronting him about it and building trust (even if trust should already exist in a marriage, there's always room for improvement). If he is too stubborn to better himself and your relationship, then there may be more problems to come and it is up to you to decide if it is possible to resolve them, and if it is worth it.

Divorce. Now. Run far and fast. This guy is an ***.

He sounds very controlling leave his ***

Sell his cars, or whatever he has precious and tell him your reason is You didn't feel he was using it properly. Then divorce this ***.

Why did you marry such sh*t? Really, were you TRYING to be unhappy?

I never get questions like this. I can tell by the way you worded it you realize he's a controlling jerk and yes, he is also manipulative. So what are you looking for here?

What's scary is sometimes people want validation that it's ok to stay with someone like this. I hope you're not that person, because of course it isn't ok. Ergo, the ball is in your court.

No. That's not manipulation, that's control.

Ahh yes, my uncle used his wife similar to how your husbands using u. Just dump him. My uncles wife hasn't left him yet and she's the most unhappiest person the i personally know of

Sounds like it, hes too controlling, i would never stay married to someone like that

Don't accept anything from him or borrow anything. Make it known that you don't want anything because hes an indian giver and his gifts arent sincer. He sounds controlling
