So many posts on here about one partner finishing an item or using an item that belongs to the other and how they are really angry... but I really don't get it....Hmm if you live together and may even be married why can't you just accept that you share the bread for example. And shock horror it will run out... if I find dh finished the bread I wouldn't send him a passive aggressive text about how he ruined my day.... I would just eat something else and buy more bread Hmm same for other objects in the house. Why is everything theirs or mine....

Well it depends.. do you do it because you like it/want to,or was it just assumed with no discussion that it would be you as the female/the one at home. Does he help out at the weekend?
As for sharing it's not an issue if you don't mind. I do mind so i was quite vocal about it in the beginning rather than quietly seething about it.

I get criss because I buy things for a purpose (baking) or as a treat for myself or as a gift and Dh eats it all. He ate the whole box of something I'd bought as a gift for someone. Drives me mad. It also annoys me because I'd quite like a packet of biscuits to last a few days or even a week, but he will eat whatever is left.

Or he eats the last of the cereal I chose for myself and left the with nothing.

I dont think the other posts are about sharing though. They seem to be about one partner greedily hoovering up everything or taking the last of everything without thought for the other. In circumstances its entirely right to be pissed off.

I share everything with my DH, food, toiletries, clothes, cash... whatever... and vice versa. But if he regularly left me with nothing I'd swiftly stop!
