My husband told me we had no money, so I had to wear old boots.

“I could not even imagine that my husband would hide from me the savings of our family,” complains Tatiana. She recently found her husband's stash. She is angry because she has long needed money. Does she really make adjustments to her family budget without her knowledge? Next in the article you will learn what a fatal mistake the heroine made and what it turned out for the family of Tatiana.



In our family, the budget is handled by my husband. He's the only one who works now, because I'm at home with a kid. It's been a year since my decree, but things are not getting better. We don’t have enough money, so we have to save money.



Lately, Toley and I have been fighting a lot over money. I don't want to put pressure on him, but I just don't know how to move on. It’s winter and we don’t even have good things in autumn. Everything was worn out. I understand that if my husband changes jobs now, we will be left with nothing.

Lack of money hits the mental state hard. I try to find solace in the child, but it does not work. I’m busy doing my homework just to get distracted. Just the other day I decided to clean up in an old dresser, which has not touched for a long time. In the bottom shelf was a mountain of my old work papers, some of my husband's things.



And that's where I found them. Money! A whole envelope of crisp bills shocked me. Of course, I immediately thought that Tolya was saving money from his salary all this time. But I never imagined that my husband would hide our family's savings from me! After all, just yesterday he assured me that there was no money, so this year I will have to wear old boots.

First I wanted to call my husband and find out everything on the spot. There was a storm of indignation inside me. Why didn’t Tolya tell me why he was hiding so much money from me? He knows a kid needs a jacket for the winter, new shoes. I don't talk about myself. I haven't even had a haircut in six months.



Anyway, I decided I'd do something different. The same day, when my husband came home from work, I asked him, “Tolia, can you borrow some money from a friend?” At home, you can see it. We eat only macaroni and sausages, how can we?

The husband said that he understands everything perfectly, but we need to wait a little before the paycheck. I couldn't stand it. If he doesn't want to talk about the stash, I'll handle it as I see fit. The next day I took all the money and went shopping. First of all, I closed the issue of children’s things. Then I went to the supermarket and replenished our food supplies, because at home even the refrigerator is empty! And then I went to the salon and cleaned up. Beautiful!



Only when Tolya came home and saw how much we had, immediately ran to the dresser. Almost crying, he shouted: “Tania, what have you done?” It wasn't our money! This is the customer’s money for construction materials. There's a couple thousand of us out there. And I didn't want to give it to you because I thought I'd surprise you for our anniversary!



Yeah, it's my fault. But it wouldn't have happened if my husband had told me everything from the beginning. Now we call everyone we know, looking for a place to borrow money. I'm afraid I'll have to borrow a microloan. I'm also thinking about going to work. I'm already on maternity leave!

Of course, sooner or later. All the secret becomes apparent. But should Tatiana have behaved so recklessly and spent her husband’s money? Perhaps, the heroine’s family would not be in a stalemate position if the woman asked her husband about everything directly. Either way, this situation will serve as a good lesson for a woman for life. What do you think?
