Question: 

My husband sees me more of an authority figure than a partner. He is the wayward spouse. He said that one thing he enjoyed with his affair partner was that he could relax. No worries/no agenda. I am hurt and angry by this comparison. We are 2 1/2 years from D-Day and I feel like he still can’t grow up! Of course he could relax with an affair partner... No responsibilities, no boundaries and no expectations. Can you give me your thoughts?
