Most of the times, I already know that my husband will allow me the certain thing I am asking the permission for, still I like to ask for his permission.. its good if one couple’s relation is strong enough to understand the situations but its always good to respect your spouse and I think (my opinion), this is one of the ways/ action to make him feel respected and dominant..
and yes, its not only about going out, its about anything which requires permission (ofcourse not drinking water, having meal, sleeping blah blah
)
