[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's wrong with her wanting to control the finances? Some people are, clearly, not very good at finances. Her husband sounds like one of those people. Marriages are supposed to be partnerships, a place where one's strengths fill the gap with the other's weaknessses. I'm the PP who called her a perfect wife. I'm not great with finances, and would love to find a woman that is. I'd love to drop all the stresses of financial management, take a comfortable allowance that we agree on, and live without having to constantly worry about the thing I dislike. OP clearly likes dealing with the budget, and it's important to her. Yeah, my kind of woman! (asians are also super hot!)[/quote] OP here, thank you for your support. DH hates budges and finances. He finds money stressful and he was very happy early on to leave it all in my hands. It was actually his idea, but it fits in with my culture in which women manage the household finances. My African friends have the same kind of set up -- the husband's paycheck goes straight to the wife's account. I don't know why Americans find this so extreme. I manage money well and I will even be the one to suggest a new pair of pants or a shirt if I notice that something he is wearing is no longer looking sharp. I am just judicious in my spending.[/quote]
