She is self-sufficient which is great, but if she had a flat tire, she would rather change it then let her husband come in and be the "hero." I dont know, maybe some of this is going on? I would just ask him to clarify what he meant. Maybe he is co-dependant and is projecting onto you? Good luck.
Thanks for offering the male perspective. I agree, she should nicely talk to him and find out what he means. It may be as simple as, he needs to feel you appreciate him or he needs to know that he has a purpose in the relationship. Many men like to feel they needed by their partner.
