Husband in control of finances

Re: Husband in control of finances

@Paheli00

Those 2 statements contradict each other so which one is it. Can you use the credit card when YOU want? Or did you husband specifically/directly tell you that you MUST ask him for permission before buying ANYTHING for yourself or the kids? Did he directly tell you that you cannot buy anything that’s not on sale and can’t buy anything simply b/c you “want” it?

BTW, did he grow up poor?

Im wondering about the last part too. I know a few people that came from very poor backgrounds and they continue to live very simply (bordering on the verge of miserly) because that’s just what they’re used to.
