Depends
It all depends on the relationship. My wife and I have been married for 20+ years, we do everything together, sail, run, bike, go on Porsche drives. She bought the 83 911 SC for me as a birthday present and doesn't ask to drive it.
Well...once she did ask and I said, "o/k, let's go together to make sure all your questions are answered". She knows how to drive a standard (her car is a Wrangler w/ standard). So she drove it just fine. I asked her about the gauges. Stuff like, "do you know what's normal temp, oil pressure, and why is the temp normal and oil pressure up and the oil level looks low?" She decided on her own not to drive it because she thought if she ran it out of oil or something she'd feel bad. Insurance covers damage, but not mechanicals, and Porche mechanicals are expensive and she knows it. We still go on long weekend drives and she still drives the car, with me in it. No fights about it ever.
