No need to wax, I wear jeans all the time too.
Takeaway a good idea, if she doesn't want to cook once a week.
Look on the bright side, at least you won't have to stop smoking, or, if not already, switch to rollies they are cheaper.

She sounds quite a strong woman Dex...a bit selfish also, if you don’t mind me saying.
It’s like you have all the responsibility managing the money....she just likes to spend it....which is the easy part.

Re: On the contrary
Another thing, while I'm getting ready to celebrate our wedding anniversary
...She worked for longer than I did and sometimes likes to rake up the fact. Around 18 years ago, my parents had a house fire and this led to me taking about 6 months off work to go and work on it. The outcome was that we were able to generate rental income from it for us (and my brother and nieces), plus the work done increased it's eventual sale value sufficiently enough for us to buy a couple of flats which are bringing rent so that "my" part of the current income is more than hers.
This part of the equation doesn't seem to have entered her thought processes.

Re: On the contrary
All marriage imo, should be equal, it’s not about one or the other...it’s about both.Unfortunately that is not usually the case in a lot of marriages..
It’s very one sided in some.
Not implying yours is Dex, I’m sure she has her qualities...
But some woman just love spending their man’s money.these stay at home kept woman type.
Spend, spend, spend, I think Daddy plays a big part in that.
