[quote=Anonymous]Chinese woman here, though I've been here for almost 30yrs. DH, also Chinese, and I have his, mine and joint bank accounts bc we got married in our 30s and already somewhat established. There is no Chinese way of running the household. Growing up, my dad was in charge while my MIL ran her household. You mentioned that you've been married for 3 yrs and this talk only surfaced when she made new friends. I admit some of us can be very showy, ie. openly comparing salaries, cars, house sizes, bank accounts, etc. Is your wife feeling insecure and now feels the need to keep up with the Jones? Regardless, cultural customs aside, use this opportunity to reassess your financial arrangements when both of you seem unhappy. But most importantly, steer her away from her new friends and her mom if she's easily influenced.[/quote]
