    Love or Control: The Jealousy Trap

    Meilleure citation de Love or Control: The Jealousy Trap

    “

    Question posée

    My husband doesn't want me going out to bars or wearing skin visible clothing and has said it's because he doesn't want guys to look at me. But I don't like this and hate that he says if I do these things then I don't care about his feelings or love him because I could sacrifice them
