To Want More Money?

Hello

my DH is a lawyer and earns quite a bit. we have separate bank accounts and he pays for all the bills, food etc. and everything DS and DD need.
he gives me £750 per month for me to pamper myself and to buy my own things as i don't work.
but i'm finding that this isn't enough, a few spa visits and shopping trips and it all goes.

AIBU to want more? DH says I'm spoilt but I honestly think I need maybe an extra £500 a month. its no like DH can't afford it...

I wouldn't be too sure of that - high class hookers don't come cheap you know, and are an absolute necessity when you're marital sex life is feeble.

Does anyone actually think this troll is for real?? stupid stupid stupid woman!!!

Actually with all due respect for others in more dificult and frugal situations.

Your husband is so obviously balancing his knob elsewhere - you know like up somewhere it shouldn't be?

He just cannot be bothered with you. You are looking withered, old and your pubes are grey.

Have you looked in the mirror lately?

Woof woof.

Why has this thread become so yuck? I thought everyone realised the OP was only joking and posting for fun? Now it's become vile. OP, it's one thing to troll for the sake of conversation when bored/feeling lonely, but you've turned a joke into a horrible excuse to hurt peoples feelings. I feel for you. If pissing people off makes you happy, then i'm not suprised £750.00 a month wouldn't either

VirginPeachyMotherOfSpod · 06/12/2009 11:58

Shiney thats what I didn't get- what I thought was a joke thread went- extreme.

However, a few people have asked today and no, I'm not upset. Whilst i'd not choose toread things like that, OTOH I am not silly enough to not realise a few people think it so getting a chance to challenge it is probably a positive.

Louby3000 · 06/12/2009 12:02

Where has OP gone? Nursing hangover/hiding under bed in shame spiral?
OP, come on fess up say you were bored it all got out of hand and say sorry
BTW you never responded to any of my posts...were they too close to the bone?
Peachy you are clearly lovely. On high ground you stand

Mavisenderby I am only up to page one so far, but I have to say the thread got so funny, I started laughing out loud, as soon as soon as stayfrostythesnowmam posted about buying handbags out of swans.

sparklefrog · 06/12/2009 12:02

made out of swans, sorry.

sparklefrog · 06/12/2009 12:17

Have now read most of the thread, and there's something I don't understand.

The OP seems quite scathing about people who do not earn as much as her DH, yet OP earns nothing and is quite happy to leech off of her DH and greedily expects more than he is happy to give. There is no gratitude, just an overwhelming sense of entitlement.

I don't understand why OP doesn't follow her own advice, and get herself a job as a doctor or such like, since she is doing nothing but lunching and visiting spa's.

Sounds a lot like prostitution to me. She shags her DH, and in return gets paid an allowance, yet contributes nothing herself.

If this is real, and I doubt it is, I hope for her DC's sakes that she has very little input into her DC's upbringing.

sparklefrog · 06/12/2009 12:21

btw, if she was bringing up children cleaning the house, paying the bills, doing the gardening, overseeing the running of the house, or any other number of things it takes to run a household and support her DH in his role as the breadwinner, I would have a different opinion, but to have only one use in the house, which is to shag DH, well, that's akin to prostitution AFAIC.

OrmIrian · 06/12/2009 12:30

Oh come on.....

Could do better.

OrmIrian · 06/12/2009 12:32

Ohhhhh....read some more.

You are very very nasty as well as a troll

LadyThompson · 06/12/2009 12:34

Ok, OP. Come back if you dare. Precisely what kind of 'lawyer' is your DH? I am curious.

I think its below the belt to call her a prostitute.
Lets not take our mark from the midden as my mum would say.

sparklefrog · 06/12/2009 13:06

Prostitution = Offering sexual intercourse for pay.

Was not meant as an insult, merely a descriptive term to describe what OP is offering her DH in return for money, unless she also carries out other duties??
