Re: Paying For Things
I agree. This guy is clearly a jerk and doesn’t respect his wife. As you said yourself…people do this to someone they want to control. This is not a sign of “love”.
So all that being said…what’s HER excuse for putting up with it? 
She’s educated, living in the U.S., and even has her family here. She’s not being kept prisoner and the guy hasn’t threatened physical violence if she leaves. So why is she CHOOSING to be his trophy wife & live the life of luxury while complaining about how he controls her…instead of standing up for herself and getting a job.
