To get annoyed at having to prompt dh for some money?

537 replies

WomanCalledAlice · 01/03/2013 15:57

I work FT and get paid monthly, dh gets paid weekly. My wage pays the bills/clothes the kids need etc. On a Friday when dh is paid he transfers money straight into my account for groceries. Today he transferred £100 so I went to Tesco and spent £70 on food for the week and put the other £30 in the meter for electric.

Now it's my friends birthday today and I'd like to buy her something nice and also my other friend had a baby on Monday so would have liked to buy her a little gift.

Every week it's more or less the same, he transfers money over but I just never have enough. When I ask him for more money he usually says "did you spent the whole £100"? But he always transfers more over its just the fact he questions me and I don't think I should have to ask.

I'm not out buying luxuries for myself (I wish) I'd just like a little bit of cash in my purse. AIBU?

I almost feel guilty for asking him Confused

(((Alice))) Next year's birthday is going to be so much better. Just keep thinking of how great things will be on your own terms.

Don't feel sorry for yourself. It's just the voddie.

Even if it turns out that 'D'H was lying about the Police friend, logging that he told you he was given a heads up could be useful. Telling someone that the Police are not going to help them is threatening. Either the Police Officer did something very wrong or your H did.

Have a big glass of water, take a paracetamol and sleep.

What happened love?

MrsTerryPratchett · 03/03/2013 00:41

I'm worried, Alice. Come back and update. Or call 999 if he is there and causing problems.

Darkesteyes · 03/03/2013 00:48

Alice.....are you OK.

DIddled · 03/03/2013 00:59

Alice love,

I have been married to a policeman for 16 years- believe me if he told a pal something that had come in via a report- and that was subsequently complained about- he would be suspended, probably sacked and quite possibly prosecuted!!!

if the policeman in question had done it- and looked up the incident then there will be an audit trail on the Police national computer- and if he has looked without it being his business then he is in big trouble and rightly so!!!

Anyway you must not hesitate to ring 999 if you need to - and if there are any problems re the 'police friend' please pm me and I'll ask my husband how you need to take it further.

Unmumsnet hug and kiss- you are brilliant and brave xxxxx

TimidLivid · 03/03/2013 01:17

Alice hope ur alright read the thread and really feel for you, hope u stay strong and he stays away

Dubjackeen · 03/03/2013 01:18

Hope you are okay,and that you are getting some well-deserved sleep right now. Please take care of yourself. Am not in UK so not sure how police reports etc work out,but am guessing he is bluffing re hearing from his friend. Stay strong,you deserve so much better.

WomanCalledAlice · 03/03/2013 02:15

Don't leave the door open but then you know that.

Don't look at your texts. Make yourself a large coffee.

Keep talking on here.
