DH has bought something for the house without mentioning it to me and I am honestly a bit annoyed.
It was about £40 so its not like he's gone mad or anything but its something we absolutely did not need and I would have rather the money went towards other things tbh.
I only found out because the parcel turned up and when I asked what it was he said he'd ordered it a couple of days ago. I said I wish he'd mentioned it first and he said why, its hardly a big purchase and he doesn't ask me before buying things for himself.
I do see that point but I don't really think its the same when its something for the house? Especially when we've got other things coming up that we need to pay for.
I am not saying he needs to ask permission every time he spends money btw. If he wants to buy himself something with his own money then obviously thats different. But if its coming out of our joint account for something that is basically unnecessary then surely its reasonable to discuss it first?
He thinks I'm being controlling and making an issue out of nothing.
AIBU?
