I love the Rockets and the Astros. I will live, love, and die in Texas. I like giving advice and I really hope I can help some people because above all, that's really what I want to do. In addition, I want to be a politician when I grow up (a good one, not a bad in-it-for-the-power kind...I hate those kinds), so I'm hoping this might help me think outside the box and come up with creative solutions to seemingly impossible problems. If you need anything at all, I'm here and will help you all I can. :-D

My Boyfriend and I were involved in a car accident friday afternoon... We are alright though. The car is totalled he hurt his shoulder and I hit my head.. but anyway.. I am terrified to ride with him.. or for that fact even drive. Since his car is totalled we've been driving my car and I've been driving. and hes like I'll drive.. and I tell him no that I Am.. I really trust him. I mean we've been together almost 11 months. and this really hurt him when I told him I was scared to drive.. and now he feels like I dont trust him anymore. and I don't know what to do to fix this. I even told him that I trusted him that he's just got to give me sometime to get over the accident that it just happened... What Can I Do?? :( Sorry This Is Soooo Long. (link)

First of all, glad to hear yall are ok. Reactions like yours are common after a traumatic experience. It's ok to not want to drive or even be in a car, especially since the accident is recent. I'd suggest telling him it has nothing to do with trusting him, but it's about you feeling safe. Explain that you do trust him in every other way, but this is just one of those things. If he loves you, he'll understand and back off. But you also can't feel to hurt that he feels that way as well. Put yourself in his shoes. He's probably feeling like you think his driving abilities aren't as good as you thought they were, or maybe his reaction time, or something else that makes him look bad in some way, and we all know how guys usually have to impress. Sometimes, they get their ego hurt easily. Tell him you still trust him and love him and everything, really try to boost his ego. Hope it helps. Good Luck!
