I have called him on it a few times in the past. He was briefly married to a woman who was exactly like that.

Her other annoying thing was prefacing practically everything with: if you loved me, you would do this. I wanted to take her down for that on several occasions.

I convinced my friend that if he could handle the idea of a divorce, then she had no power over him anymore. A rarity in California, she ended up owing him money at the end of the day.
