So, I've given my FI some things to do for the wedding that I want him to take care of. I feel like I'm doing more than enough, so I wanted him to help in areas that weren't really "fun" to deal with. However, I'm having a hard time letting him do it himself....I guess I feel like I can't trust him to do it "right" (whatever "right" is). Can anyone else relate?

I gave him the tast of honeymoon planning. He's keeping our destination a secret from me, but it's planned and I have no doubt that he did a great job. Having said that...I think if I were to give him another task I would micro-manage a bit. I can't help myself! You're not alone. But you do have to trust him. What if you compromise and give yourself final veto-power/decision making?

I haven't given him any tasks, because I actually want them to get done!

Photography was the one thing he really cared about, so I told him to find a photographer. I waited a month. He'd done nothing. I found a photographer.
