  2. The Family & Parenting Forums
    My wife just told me that about a month ago she had donated to a cause I feel ambivalent about. I said I would have expected her to tell me about it sooner if not discuss it beforehand. She became very upset by this. We have a single family budget and we always discuss (or so I thought) any...

  7. Financial Problems in Marriage
    I see other posts about people hitting a wall with finances because their spouse or SO can't manage money. I registered specifically to share my experiences on this because maybe someone will find it helpful. It drives me up the wall when people spew "Divorce him/her" right off the bat. I've...

  13. Financial Problems in Marriage
    Look. People are different. Your spouse will never likely be exactly like you and you should be thankful for that. I know it would be a pain to be married to myself, no idea how my wife does it. When two people who come together and try to figure this money out, I noticed there are four...
