5 Signs You Are "P-Whipped"

By: Marius Gherghinescu

You are fed up with the jokes your mates make about you saying you are completely under your girlfriend's influence but maybe there is a bit of truth in this. Read the following statements and find out if she is bossy and learn how to be in charge.

1. If you go to have a beer, you need permission

If you want to go out with the boys, you need first to have her approval and you accept it. You do not need to ask for permission, you only need to tell her this. She does not ask for permission when she goes out with her friends.

2. She makes decisions for you

''Today you wear this shirt, the blue tie with strips and leave at 9 a.m.'' How does this sound? Do you tell her how to use make-up, what to wear and what time to come back? It is a lack of respect to decide for you.

3. She makes appointments

She takes you to social events or makes appointments at the dentist for you, without asking, saying she knows what is best for you. You need to take rapid action and impose yourself.

4. You are afraid of her reactions

Every time you step out of the line, you ask yourself what she might think about it. More than that, you are afraid she might get angry because you talked on the phone for 15 minutes, for coming home too late or for telling that you don't like the food she cooked.

5. You avoid contradicting her

...even when you are convinced you are right. She has you under control and turned you into ''mama's boy'', the one that needs to be good. My friend, you need to take some action. Do not become the one who has the last word but you need to get respect and not be manipulated.
