      His money is all mine anyway :evil:

      Sleepy, I'm green with envy. 😉

            Dh's biggest plus point is he doesn't mind giving me full discretion to manage his finance. In fact he's quite happy to be hands off, totally clueless on our bank balance and expenditures as long I transfer a fixed sum to his personal account each month.

            Once, I compained to him that he never bother to write a single cheque or file his own income tax return ever since we got married, he immediately retorted 'I have a cpa wife so why should I bother with all these?' :faint:

              DH won’t apologise until he’s asked to. He will do things to appease my anger and behave very thick skinned. Never mind if he’s talking to a wall, he’ll still talk - monologue, also can. At some point, he’ll get a response especially if relate to kids.


              I think he waits till I ask him to apologise cos that means that I’ve cooled down to some extent. And depending on how angry I am, there’s usually a penalty to be paid. Got to make myself happy after the unhappiness and anger.

                  My dh does that too. He ignores me for days thinking he is giving me time to cool down but it has the opposite effect. I get even more upset when he ignores me. I want him to quickly apologise and pacify me immediately. I cannot wait for days and he won't t talk to me first until I break the ice. So usually I will end up talking to him first, really cannot endure the cold war. But this trait of his really pissed me off big time. I have been telling him repeatedly, must come & 哄我 first then I got 台阶下. Always wait for me to talk to him first, like that I feel so 委屈 le

                    My DH wouldn't dare ignore me... Yes, it'll make me angrier. He behaves normal, like nothing is wrong, even if I have no response, he'll talk. He can have a monologue. This behaviour also makes me angry but ignoring me would be worse for him.

                      Your dh is initiating conversation and pacifying you already. He is handling argument very well, give you 台阶下 😉

                        I'm getting more green... So envious!

                        I get fixed sum into my personal account. I monitor the joint bank balance but don't touch it. I'm not 100% sure that he doesn't have another bank account or accounts. Fortunately, he doesn't question about my credit card bills... I think I'm more prudent than him ( except when I'm angry ). Yes, every card he has, I have a supplementary card. The banks will be stupid not to waive the fees cos the expenditure from supplementary cards is higher in my case.

                        And I shop at supermarkets cos I can use credit cards and enjoy the aircon, plus it's fixed prices so don't need to haggle over prices. I'm not so Aunty after all (ahem, still in denial )... Which is why I'm not at the other Aunty thread though I do peep sometimes. :evil:
