Is this controlling or no?
My husband and I own a home together and he installed cameras in every single room except the guest room. He calls me all day every day telling me to put the dog up because she eats things from the floor. He will call and if I don’t answer right away he gives me a lecture about how I needs to answer the phone for him at all times so he can tell me when to put the dog up. Just a few minutes ago he called because the dog ate a chicken crumb from the floor. In my opinion it’s not that big of a deal but to appease him I just comply with his demands to put the dog up for eating from the floor. Today I refused to put the dog up and he told me it’s his house and he’s just watching it. I told him I feel like he’s micromanaging me and consistently monitoring like I’m a prisoner or something. He told me because it’s his house he has a right to watch the cameras at all times. He also told me that we need to keep out distance from each other because I don’t respect him. I don’t think asking him not to monitor me 24/7 is disrespectful. When I’m away from the home I don’t micromanage him, I leave and I don’t ever check the cameras. The dog is a constant battle between him and I and I am really considering rehoming the dog because my husband has sucked the joy of owning a dog out of my life. Last night she simply sniffed a cookie my daughter dropped on the floor and he wanted to put her away, I didn’t and because I didn’t he shut down and he was in the middle of fixing a light that’s been out for a year. He also refused to speak to me and I had to initiate conversation today for him to get back to normal. I’m just over it.
