Is car sharing a way of controlling??

Question - (23 March 2007) 2 Answers - (Newest, 23 March 2007)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Although this is not a real serious question, i was just wondering what people thought about this small issue in general. My boyfriend said that once i passed my driving test, we could both use his car.

Sort of, share it between us. Obviously i am not going to do this as i like my little blue car and dont think we could share his without one wanting to use it while the other has it. Although i found it strange that he said this.

Does he just want to control me, or keep tabs on where i am. If we shared a car he would know whenever i went out (as i would have to pick it up from him), perhaps he wants to know when i am out. It all just seems controlling and i find it really odd that he would say it. Especially as his car is a large BMW and i am only used to a tiny car and would most likely hit it.

kenny agony auntI don't think the reason he wants to car share with you is to keep tabs on your where abouts.

I would feel privileged that he actually trusts you to drive his BMW, especially as you have not been driving that long.

Be honest with him, say its a really thoughtful idea but that you love your little blue car and want to continue driving that. Im sure he will understand

Good luck x

He might just be trying to be nice, but to answer the 'controlling' question would require you to look at other aspects of your relationship and view it as a whole. I'd keep your own car, though. Just in case.
