You're talking about guns right..............Have you taken her shooting? That cures most of the Girl Gun Haters club I've ever known. My problem with my wife is getting her to put mine down long enough to give me some time with it.

and repped!
I make 5X what my wife does and she makes pretty good money. We're not hurting for money by any means. I still ask if it's ok that I buy anything over $50 or so... not because I expect her to say no, but because we both always know about what each-other is buying and we respect eachother enough to just double-check that it's not going to be a problem etc...she was pissed that I mad a purchase of 300.00 without asking her. I make 85K plus and she makes 28K WTF? I need to ask her if I can spend my money?
My wife tried that starting on our honeymoon. The third day in, I threw my ring on the ground and told her we'll end this just as fast as we started it. That straightened her out pretty good.
Money wise, what you make is yours, what she makes is hers. You split the common bills (food, electric, mortgage, etc...), either 50/50 or based on your income ratios (80:25); whatever you two agree to.
Do NOT have kids until this garbage gets straightened out. If she don't straighten out soon, then get rid of her. There are lots of women out there looking for a guy making $80k+.
Wow, you seem like a real catch. Sorry for the lack of purple
Believe it or not, there are still some real men around; the types that don't lick the boots of our wife nor the gov't. Refusing to lick boots gains respect from both.
btw, we've been together for 15 years now, and married for 11 years. 1st marriage for both.
What's this mean P/C? She sweeps with the fishes?
This is good advice.I make 5X what my wife does and she makes pretty good money. We're not hurting for money by any means.

I've never really understood people that do this (keep separate accounts and such). Maybe it was just my upbringing... but it seems to me like if you go into a marriage with separate account and pre-nups and all that other CYA stuff just in case you get a divorce you're almost planning for failure from the start. The mentality of "what's mine is mine and what's yours is yours" is quite possibly one of the main problems in marriages today.Money wise, what you make is yours, what she makes is hers. You split the common bills (food, electric, mortgage, etc...), either 50/50 or based on your income ratios (80:25); whatever you two agree to.
