The financial ABUSE in marriages is hardly ever talked about. But that's EXACTLY what it is. ABUSE.

I was the wife in this. Held to him thru money.

Which then held me to the psychological, emotional, verbal abuses.

They all tie in together.

Abuse is not JUST physical.

Wife: β€œThey offered me $180,000 a year.”

Husband: β€œTell them no.”

Wife: β€œWhat?”

Husband: β€œTurn it down.”

She laughed because she thought he was joking.

He wasn’t.

Wife: β€œI’ve been interviewing for this job for two months.”

Husband: β€œAnd now you got it. Congrats. Tell them no.”

Wife: β€œWhy would I do that?”

Husband: β€œBecause we already discussed you working.”

Wife: β€œNo. YOU decided I shouldn’t work.”

Husband: β€œSame difference.”

Wife: β€œNot even close.”

He closed his laptop.

Husband: β€œWhy do you suddenly need a career so bad?”

Wife: β€œSuddenly? I worked before we got married.”

Husband: β€œAnd then I started making enough for both of us.”

Wife: β€œThat doesn’t mean I stopped wanting my own career.”

Husband: β€œYou got everything you need.”

Wife: β€œThen why do I gotta ask you before I buy anything?”

Husband: β€œBecause I make the money.”

She went quiet.

Husband: β€œWhat?”

Wife: β€œSay that again.”

Husband: β€œI said I make the money.”

Wife: β€œExactly.”

That’s when the argument changed.

She reminded him she’d tried getting a part-time job the year before.

He complained the hours would interfere with dinner.

She tried freelancing from home.

He told her it was taking too much attention away from him.

Then she applied for a remote position.

Husband: β€œWe don’t need strangers from your job calling the house all day.”

Wife: β€œThey’d be calling my laptop.”

Husband: β€œYou know what I mean.”

She eventually stopped applying.

Until this $180K offer came.

Wife: β€œI’m accepting it.”

Husband: β€œNo, you’re not.”

Wife: β€œWatch me.”

Husband: β€œAnd who’s paying the mortgage when you start acting independent?”

Wife: β€œWhat does my job have to do with the mortgage?”

Husband: β€œEverything.”

Wife: β€œAre you threatening me?”

Husband: β€œI’m reminding you how comfortable your life is.”

Wife: β€œComfortable?”

Husband: β€œHouse paid. Car paid. Cards paid. You don’t gotta worry about nothing.”

Wife: β€œExcept having money that’s actually mine.”

He stared at her.

Husband: β€œWe’re married. There is no β€˜mine.’”

Wife: β€œFunny how that only applies when it’s MY money.”

She accepted the job that night.

The next morning, her credit card stopped working..............
