I'm upset with my girlfriend right now. I've been with her for 4 years now, and she still doesn't understand my passion for cars. You can all read what I've bought for my car in my info. It isn't much. But for some reason she thinks I buy stuff for it all the time. I was telling her I was thinking about bidding on a header online for my car and she got really mad at me. She said, "you don't even need a header, why are you wasting your money?" I just had a birthday, and I felt I should be aloud to maybe buy myself something for a birthday/chirstmas present. I've talked to everyone else in my life, friends and grandpa and mother. They all say, "it's your money, and if that's what you want to spend it on it's okay." I told my girlfriend that all those people said that, but it didn't matter really, because it doesn't matter what anyone else said she is the most important person in my life I can't do something unless she says it's okay. I can't stand her being mad at me. I told her I felt like she's controllling sometimes because she gets mad at me if I don't do exactly what she wants. She got mad at me and told me to spend my money on whatever I wanted and stop caring about what she thought, and it was irritating what I was doing. It feels like no matter what I do, she's mad at me and I can't make her happy. I love her. How do I get her to understand me, and except me?

hehehe...im lucky..my gf used 2 b like that, then i she started to like my car more n more n now shez givin me suggestions on what i should do next. Shez tellin me i should get either JDM tails, GT4 spoiler or a front lip. But yea, she used 2 b like that. She thought i spent more time on the car than i did on her. She used to get pissed when i would go blow every cent of my paycheck on the car and not have $ to take her out 4 dinner or somethin. I say get ur gf to relize that ur car is ur passion. To get it through to my gf, this is what i did. I told her "You like to shop right?" She said yes, and told me its how she gets away from the world and relives stress. I told her "well, ok, u like to shop to get rid of stress, i like to work on the car. U spend $70 on a pair of jeans, i spend $70 on a strut bar and new light bulbs for my gauges." Explain to her that she spends time n $ on her hobies, u do too. Tell her that u guys arent married, u dont share the $, its urs and if she doesnt like u spending it the way u spend it, then tough luck. Next time she goes out n spend a crap load of $ on an expensive peice of clothin or cosmetics or somethin give her **** for it. My ex was the same way, she said i was stupid for spending as much $ as i did on my BMX when she was the one who spent $60 on LIPGLOSS.
