writes: My partner and I have just started to workout together. He is a police officer and ex-military and is very experienced in this area, but I am not. I am the type of person that asks questions in order to understand what I need to do, and he gets very angry when I ask questions. He told me that I should not ask questions, rather do as I am told and I will answer them on my own (sounds like the military/police training to me). I do not feel comfortable working out alone, but it is getting to the point where I am going to have to quit in order to save an argument. I just want him to be more patient with me, but he says he is being as patient as he can. What can I do to better this situation?
