Rock on, sista!
When DH and I first got together (not the first time around for either of us) he kept trying to jump in and carry heavy stuff or dig every hole. It was hard for him to not be needed. It was really difficult for me to explain the difference that I wanted him but after having been divorced and a single parent for 10 years, I did NOT NEED a man!
OK... I've softened up in the last 12 years. He's one of those people that love to sweat and work hard in the heat of summer, so I let him. Ugg, too much for me.
