[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is nothing wrong with not spending money. Blowing money doesn't actually tend to make anyone happy. Just enjoy the company of your friends and family. A new haircut or shirt will be shiny for fifteen minutes.[/quote] Actually a good haircut can go a long way towards improving a person's self-esteem. I think it's a good investment. Clothes can do the same but you can often get away with spending less (i.e. you don't need a whole new outfit, just a shirt). If OP's self-esteem is suffering (as it must be b/c her DH is embarassed and she's on DCUM talking about it), then she needs to think of some of these purchases as investments in herself that are much, much cheaper than therapy (to paraphrase another PP). [/quote] I guess my rebuttal would be that if you are basing your self esteem off of a haircut or a shirt, your priorities are likely skewed a bit. That seems more like grounds for seeking help of some kind.[/quote]
