Money sometimes causes conflict in relationships, particularly when one spouse feels entitled to a specified amount. Becky, for example, thought that the wealth her father gave her should be spent on herself rather than on family needs. Her husband objected, telling her that he\u2019s been there for her for years. In an unexpected twist, he did something that wounded Becky, prompting her to seek our guidance.<\/p>\n

Here is Becky\u2019s letter:<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I\u2019ve been a housewife, taking care of my 2 stepkids while my husband provided for us. Recently, my dad left me a $40k inheritance, and my husband said it would help with the family expenses. I told him, \u201cMy dad left this money for me, to spend on myself!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

He nodded. Next day, I was horrified to find that my closet was empty of my favorite clothes. Most of my bags and shoes were gone. I went to the living room, where my husband was, and saw my things packed in boxes.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI thought marriage was about supporting each other, but clearly, you don\u2019t believe in that!\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Then, with a smirk, he added, \u201cNow that you have your dad\u2019s money, maybe you can spend it on buying your own stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

I couldn\u2019t believe my eyes! It\u2019s been a few days, and my husband and I have completely stopped talking to each other. Was I wrong for what I said?<\/p>\n
