It is known that Millennials hate driving. Half of my younger peers growing up didn't even bother. They just made their parents or boyfriends drive them around. This is now me, driving my SO around.

I loathe driving, avoid it whenever I can. Didn't buy my first car until I was 30 and really only because we were having a kid.

That’s a red flag. Your partner could lacks a maturity issue. I hate driving but life basically demand you get one if you don’t want to inconvenience other people. Your SO took the later and said they don’t care about inconveniencing anyone. How long will you allow them to escape their responsibility?

Naw. She's 40. Some people just don't have reflexes for driving and know it. Some people do it anyway and those are the people you see who get 30 fender benders. Also by not driving she saves us probably 10 grand a year in insurance, gas, and auto maintenance. We live in a small town anyway, so driving is pretty much unimportant.

My dad did say that I would be a taxi for the rest of my life when I told him she didn't drive, but also he married someone 30 years younger than him to be his nurse maid for the rest of his life, so he's a bit of a hypocrite.

My first serious girlfriend in high school never got her license until well into college. I drove her everywhere for most of high school and then when we split she was in college and really didn’t need to drive.
