Why do I get so mad when my husband wants to buy car parts for his car???

Because he is way more attracted to the car
Because he made you insecure probable due to lack of sexual activities.
maybe thats his hobbie, cars and things? everyone needs some sort of hobbie, even if its just watchin tv, he probably just likes to chill out by wrkin on his car? Amy.
haha maybe u feel like he loves the car more than he does u? or cause he gives it more attention or somethin. thats just my guess though....u should talk to him about it!!
Jealous of a car... bad deal. You need to speak up for yourself. (I'm guessing you suffer in silence)
its just a man thing and probably a hobby and men are complicated to understand...so dont be bothered by it
BE GLAD THAT HE IS NOT SPENDING HIS TIME DOING OTHER THINGS. MEN LOVE CARS MY BOYFRIEND LOVES HIS CARS . HE WILL FIX AND DO EVERYTHING HIS SELF. THATS JUST WHAT THEY DO. MY MANS CAR WILL BE ALWAYS CLEAN BUT HE CANT SEEM TO KEEP THE HOUSE THAT WAY.THEY ARE THEIR TOYS. DONT TAKE IT AWAY. JUST BE HAPPY AND MAYBE FIND A REASON TO JOIN HIM IN SOME WAY OR JUST TALK ABOUT OLD SCHOOL CARS OR SOMETHING.
its a hobby relax
Some guys are obsessed with their cars (and some of us girls too, actually). You're jealous because he seems to love it more than you. I joke with my hubby about that. It's not a big deal, really, it's a guy thing and nagging about it probably won't lead to anything good. Let him love his baby but don't forget to tease him about it mercilessly. :P
Because he probably is young and does not realize that needs and wants for a car is different. Totally different. If he is young, than hopefully he will grow out of it eventually, but I have seen some people that are retarded. Even if you are a B it ch, he should still realize the economy is bad, and car is just a machine need. If he does not realize this soon, than think about a new car replacement for him, like and education to do without a man.
LOL, why DO you get so mad? Unless he's squandering all the money on his car that you have nothing left to pay the bills, you're wasting your time getting angry. My husband does the same thing. His car is like his second wife.
Children love their toys. This grown up child (your husband) loves his car... Haha
Sounds like u need a hobby Ur hubby obviouly loves his car. Let him!! U can't have 100% of his attention u know, he is still a seperate human being from you. If u try to control him like that maybe you'll end up even more angry when he dumps you for someone more understanding.
Is his car a hobby? Or does he need them to make it work, so he can go to work? Why not put on some sexy old jeans and a cute top you won't mind throwing away, and get greasy with him You can learn how to replace a hose (no pun intended) or use a jack, lol OK I am being funny now. But really you could learn ,and he maybe he'll learn some things from you too. Hot sweaty mechanic love lol, I crack myself up! Or wear some booty shorts, and a halter top, and eat a pop sickle in front of him, and ask him does he want something in the house lol. OK, OK I'm done
it's his hobby, and if you try to take it away from him he wont thank you. try and show an interest, it may not be your thing but asking him how it's going and what he has to do should get him infused. my husband is also into his cars and bikes, and pretty much anything he can tinker with, i just try to show an interest, and hope he will do the same with my interests. we all have diffrent hobbies inlife, if you respect his, he'll hopefully do the same with yours, i go to car things with my hubby and in return he goes along with me to things i find interesting. we have a nissan skyline, hugely expensive to run and two grand to insure, so its not a cheap hobbie, but it makes him happy, and we all have to have some joy in life. plus i fallen in love with it to, its bloody quick and a brilliant laugh. its amazing how much you can enjoy things if you just give it a try. i will never fix cars, but i love the thrill of a fast one. comprimise is the back bone of any good relationship.
It is a hobby. Does he complain about something you want like makeup clothes. You get what I am saying.
how old is the car? maybe you fell like it is time to change the car instead of fising it over & over again
