Hi ppl, it's my turn to seek help having posted in many threads here giving ppl advice and sharing my personal experiences.
My hubby, in my eyes, is perfect except for one big big flaw and that is he has this 'F1-demon' in him when he's on the road driving. Generally when it comes to driving, he's fast and impatient. He's not the vulgar or violent type but he's just very very impatient and in my opinion unsafe. His number one hobby is to race in Malaysia which never failed to worry me sick. Prior to our marriage, he never had such a hobby though he's always into cars and driving. Our frequent arguments, though usually resolved easily, would take place when he's driving or when he needs to go on a driving trip to sepang in msia. I've shared with him my concerns and worries for his safety, including all those sleepless nights before he left for his driving trip or during his driving trip. He simply thinks I'm exaggerating and just tries to assure me that everything will be safe etc. I had colleagues who lost their spouses in road accidents and therefore I'm more cautious but my hubby is the happy go lucky type who thinks "aiya, if you'll die, you'll die one lah..." I think this kind of thought is crazy because even if I were to die, I would think about my responsibilities to my family, spouse etc. Why would I also want to endanger my life by participating in all these driving trips??
So men, how many of you are such drivers and do you all continue driving like this or had anyone or anything in your life changed your attitude in driving?
Women, how many of you have husbands like mine and were you successful in curbing that racing demon in them?
