I understand completely. Although my husband is pretty good about paying for most things. He just needs me to pay a certain portion of the major expenses, based on what we each earn. It's really more than fair.
I see my parents struggling now because of my mother's money attitudes over the years, and I wanted to make sure that never happened to my husband (or to me, if he suddenly developed a gambling problem or something). But he's Mr. Responsible.
Fortunately I'm covered under his health insurance or I don't know what I'd do.
All my problems now are completely of my own making. :( I have to think about buying a burger now, and usually decide not to. It's quite a sobering realization.
