“Your husband is abusing you. This is literally financial abuse. You deserve money to spend on yourself, doesn’t matter if you don’t make a salary; you still do work keeping house.”
“Not only that, but yelling at you like that at all, but especially in front of people is also abusive. PLEASE look into getting disability or unemployment and get AWAY from him!!!”
“I’m also the breadwinner for my family and if I gave my s/o money as a gift that would be her money. If she didn’t spend a penny on me, I wouldn’t be upset because it was HER money.”
“I also tell my s/o to pick whatever she wants for me for Christmas and take it directly out of the checking account, which she has full access to whenever she wants or needs it.”
“You’re 100% NOT the asshole in this situation and I’m sorry you’re going through that. Also, if $180 sneakers is wasteful spending, then a $600 game console is definitely not what I would consider a cheap (not wasteful) gift.”
“So his gift to you was the ability to buy him the gift he wanted?? You need to get out now, this sounds highly abusive.”
“If he’s giving you $600 and expects it to be used all in him, then that’s no gift. At least he “got something” even though he expected you to go without.”
“And is he your husband? Or your whiny teenager?”
