The parable of the greedy husband, whose wife before the wedding earned well

When you meet a person and when you start living with them under the same roof, it becomes clear that the human qualities that you love them so much are not everything. This happened to a woman who told her story. The man she married was kind and caring. And now he's a greedy husband who counts every penny.



I can’t understand why my husband has become so greedy lately. This was unexpected news for me and a big disappointment, because at first I felt his care and attention, and now all this is not. Moreover, my husband began to count everything I spent on home improvement and groceries.



Before I got married, I worked in a prestigious job, so I didn't deny myself anything. I could save some money before the holidays and have a good rest abroad. My future husband at that time also earned decent money, so I easily agreed to his offer to devote myself to home and family, to leave work. I thought it was a good idea to clean up the house while my husband was working. He, in turn, pledged to take on the role of breadwinner in the family.



First, I bought a pair of chairs and a sofa in the living room. My husband rejected the chairs. Then he was dissatisfied with the color of the curtains in the bedroom, although they were very suited to the color scheme in the interior. But then it dawned on me that it wasn't that we had different tastes. First, he asked how much money he needed, and gave no more than the sum. Then he asked me to bring all the checks home. Now before going to the grocery store, I give a list of products for which my husband gives an approximate amount, then he checks all the checks.



Maybe it's the norm for some, but it seems wild to me. It was a mistake to tell my mother about this situation. She was outraged by her husband’s behavior and found nothing better than to teach him on the phone. Now when it comes to spending, my husband remembers my mom and we fight.



Mom can't keep quiet either. Every phone conversation ends with her teaching me how to behave with my husband. It's my fault he stopped respecting me. I started thinking about work. That way, I won't ask my husband for money, and he won't control me. When I talked to my mother about this, she only said that in the decree I would again depend on my husband, and he would not be generous. Now I can’t help but think that I will have to ask my husband for money again. And that doesn't suit me at all. But don't leave a man for money?
