Money is one of the most common sources of marital conflict. People often argue about how to spend it, who is in charge of it, how much of it is okay to spend, and many other aspects of handling money. It is especially hard for the breadwinner to trust their spouse with their money when they are not aware of how much they actually have and how it is spent. This woman on Reddit who stays at home with the kids wanted to buy her husband some sneakers. After she saw them on sale, she didn’t wait for her husband to buy them himself and bought them for him. She was happy to see him happy until he flipped out and called her stealing. She returned the sneakers, but the husband was still mad and avoided talking to her.
