Did you read the awesome response?

Counting every cent and keeping a ledger disrespects your husband, demeans your marriage, and turns your commitment to love, honor and respect each other into a squalid business arrangement. You are the village shopkeeper, and your husband is a hapless customer who runs up a tab over the years. Every time he comes into the store looking for a loaf of bread and a pint of milk, you lick the top of your pencil and studiously add it to his bill.

Of course, there’s nothing wrong with an arrangement where you both pool a percentage of your incomes to personal savings, joint savings, your life together and your children’s futures. I want to be very clear about that. But asking your husband to repay money that you contributed to your children’s 529 plans and homes because he earned less than you robs you both of the joy of creating a life together with unconditional love and support.

Your question goes beyond your relationship. I suspect this need to count every bean has its roots in your childhood. I have a few questions for you: Did you feel taken advantage of as a child? Did your parents fight over money? Did one of your parents pay for everything while the other parent deserted your family, or took no responsibility for anything?

I’m grasping at straws here, obviously. The issue has nothing to do with money. Your husband is not cheating you.

You are cheating yourself.

BOOM.
