Agree with lola I have been a SAHM for six years and have never had to ask DH for money nor do I feel controlled by him. Sweeping generalisation from thunder

TeeAndBiscuits Im glad you find my posts that riveting, now get lost we are free to post what we would like on here and it is my opinion that is the whole point of a forum, funny i have not noticed you before.

OutInAllWeathers fair enough, not all relationships with this setting are controlling but in OP's case it sounds like it is.

Serendipity30 · 06/06/2012 13:04

TeeAndBiscuits I could say much worse , only if you had relevance to me which you dont, shall we discuss the topic or are you still interested in me.

BoneyBackJefferson · 06/06/2012 13:05

Got to say that as the OP hasn't told us what the arguement was about. I suspect that she knows that she is in the wrong.

But I would be happy to be proved wrong.

BoneyBackJefferson · 06/06/2012 13:07

thunder

how can you say that it sounds controlling when we don't know any of the story, just the result from it?

Serendipity30 · 06/06/2012 13:11

BoneyBackJefferson That why I said it sounds controlling as I am not the OP and she has not yet disclosed further details. I didn't say she was being financially controlled as a fact, so for everyone trying to jump down my throaght calm down. Financial abuse does happen , and most people's first reaction when having an argument with a partner is not to cut off access to finances

Serendipity30 · 06/06/2012 13:12

BoneyBackJefferson I suspect that she knows that she is in the wrong. Hmm

TheHouseOnTheCorner · 06/06/2012 13:21

Yes Boney..what do you mean "she's in the wrong"? I think you mean that she's not being unreasonable because unless she was getting twice as much "housekeeping" as she needs and blowing it all on Gin, there's no reason for her DH to "cut it".

So that's where you went TeeAndBiscuits to report my post, Grin which was quite innocently made.

HerMajestyQueenHillyzabethII · 06/06/2012 13:45

Wot? Not allowed to point out that it is a first post?

pinkdelight · 06/06/2012 13:49

It all depends. If your 'housekeeping' budget is massive and you've been blowing it on drugs and male prostitutes, then no, he is not being unreasonable.

MsKittyFane · 06/06/2012 14:15

The OP could read:
" We have fallen out because he thinks I spend too much money on the horses, clothes, lunches out, makeup and hair and now he has decided to cut my housekeeping by almost half!!!! Childish or what?
or
"We have fallen out because I forgot to iron my DH's shirt and he hates my cooking and now he has decided to cut my housekeeping by almost half!!!! Childish or what?

Until you fill in the gap OP, I have no idea if YABU or not.

Yes, I reported your post and then went off to RL. That was the definition of a personal attack, albeit a lame one.

And I've been in MN for over 3 years. Ever hear of a name change?

And you and I spoke just yesterday. Are you having other instances of memory loss? [concerned emiticon]

Serendipity30 · 06/06/2012 15:03

And you and I spoke just yesterday. Are you having other instances of memory loss? personal attack Confused, you where rude and did not like my response. Why would i remember talking to you yesterday I dont know you in RL.

BoneyBackJefferson · 06/06/2012 15:32

thunder

Please don't take quotes out of context

TeeAndBiscuits · 06/06/2012 15:52

You called me something I won't repeat as it was far ruder than anything I said to you.

Hence your deletion. My deletion was because I mentioned the rude insult in my post.

BoneyBackJefferson and what context was that i mearly copied and pasted your comment, as i found it ironic considering your opinion of my earlier post, that is all

TeeAndBiscuits · 06/06/2012 17:57

No. You didn't. You called me something else, again that I won't repeat.
