[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I confronted him, I told him exactly how I came across it.

He said he bought the items with money from some things he had sold. (He is always selling gear and outdoor stuff) He admitted that he was worried I’d try and convince him to save the money and tell him that he was being irresponsible with it and [b]he felt like it was his money to spend however he wanted. [/b]

As indeed it was.[/quote]

[b]OP says money is tight because of joint expenses, and that DH knows that (since he knew she'd want him to put it toward the joint expenses). That makes it a dick move, even if not a true betrayal.[/b]

I agree with the PP who said it matters where the household money comes from. If OP is putting her whole income into joint expenses and DH is holding his back, that's not ok. If OP doesn't work, that's a different story.[/quote]

This. Money is tight so it's a jerky thing for her husband to spend money on splurges for himself. It doesn't matter if he sold his own stuff. Income should be prioritized together for the family.[/quote]

If he sells something of his and buys something for himself with the money, no harm no foul.[/quote]
