Back in November me and DH had a ‘big talk’. I offered to end the relationship, he said that he wanted to keep trying.
One of the things I asked was that he didn’t use his credit cards except for big purchases where using it was a sort of insurance, such as a holiday. He agreed.
Fast forward to Xmas and I can see that he has paid off a credit card form our joint account.
The other day he was going to the Range for a browse ( not allowed I know but what can I do, he is an adult who knows the rules) he would have bought something we don’t need, then gone to a supermarket and bought food we don’t necessarily need and wine for himself.
Now, I stopped him and said that we have food in the freezer and we don’t ‘need’ anything for the home. I pointed out that I wanted to live within my means, as per our previous conversation.
He didn’t go but now is in a mood.
Am I controlling him ? I don’t want to, I want to live within my means and have no debt, I want to save for Xmas/birthdays/holidays.
