my non driving SigOth

This is a cool idea for a tribe. I'm married to an adult that doesn't drive. I mentioned it once to someone at the Mill and I got the weirdest looks. Then people pushed me to admit I was just joking. Wow, I realized how much of a car nation we have, but this was psycho.

My grandmother didn't drive either, but I think she liked being waited on....

    My mom doesn't drive, so I think it's genetic.
    I am a non-driving signifigant other meeself. That is the only reason that I'd want to learn to drive so that I wouldn't be so much like my mom...and relieve my boyfriend of some of the burden.
    If only the anxiety were not so strong.
    I truely feel like I am unfit to drive a car.
    I get behind the wheel and freak out.
    I used to try alot when I was younger...pissing off one adult drivers ed teacher and failing drivers test after drivers test.

    Now I am 30 and stubborn with my ways.

    What's more, my boyfriend is the only person in my household who drives. My other two roommates male non-drivers..both my age or slightly older.
    One of them is sorta spazzy and receives a mental disability check.
    The other is kinda like me but more confident. I have known him for years..we are both left-handed 30-year-olds with strong ADD traits. He always has different girls drive him around.

    At least I am bicycle savvy.

      Good on you for being bike savvy. The most effiecient means of transportation mankind has invented. Excluding teleportation, of course.
