    Kind of glad I'm not married, don't even need to think about this kind of conversation. Money comes in, money gets spent all with no consultation.
    I’ve never needed consultation. The trust is in not doing something stupid with the money. I do get a head shake here and there whenever a new TV gets delivered, or I come home in a new car haha.

    As ExtraSlow pointed out earlier in the thread, the best thing to do is just make more money...

    It's nice when you have to be the sanity check when your wife tells you to buy more cars.

    My message never changed, I only elaborated because a grown ass man like yourself can't read a post without needing a disclaimer spoonfed to you that not every post applies to everyone, but can apply to some. That's not "going back" or "saying something other than what you meant" or "correcting what I said."

    You started barking up the wrong tree when you basically pulled a Cathy Newman with "so what you're saying is all couples with joint accounts never talk about purchases" which is a pretty fucking stupid thing to assert or to suggest that someone else is asserting.

    You were pretty much dead wrong when you followed it up with "you're assuming that spending is something to hide." No one said anything about hiding, ever, or at least I didn't.

    Your responses were incredibly tone deaf.

    I don't really like going around in circles so you can think whatever you think, but anyone reading can see that I never referenced or implied that having separate accounts means you're trying to hide something from the other person.
    You're right, it was incredibly stupid of you to assert. Your posts still exist unless you went back to edit them, so silly argument to be having, especially when I gave you the benefit of the doubt. Anyway, good chat. If you'd like to continue crying about this, carry on, I won't get in your way.

    Same deal here. Seems to me that going through the process of setting up a joint account and changing all of our direct deposit and auto withdrawal info seems like more work than it's worth whereas doing what we're doing now is zero additional work. My wife and I agree that the real key to a happy marriage is separate bathrooms.
    Dual sinks for sure. We keep stink sprays in every bathroom, so separate shitters is less important. I can't believe when I go to someones house and they don't have a spray in the bathroom.

    This thread has reminded me of the amazing Louis CK bit...of course, but maybe:




    Of course I trust my wife. Of course!

    but, maybe....

    We should get separate bank accounts, just in case.

    but of course I trust my wife!


    or


    Of course I trust my wife. Of course!

    but, maybe....

    We should get his-and-hers STD tests once year, just as a "precaution"

    but of course I trust my wife!

    You're reaching levels of passive aggressiveness we typically only see in women.

    Don't forget the gold standard:

    Of course we talk about purchases. Of course!

    But, maybe...

    If we have separate accounts, then I don't have to see the charges because I'd be annoyed by them...

    to dual sinks. Our old place didn't have them (but we had separate washrooms), with the new place we have a single shared ensuite but manage with the dual sinks.

    but the stink sprays i can't get behind. you just end up with flowers + shit smell, i'd rather just hte shit smell and keep the fan going til it goes away.

    A lot of those stink sprays smell just as bad as what you're trying to cover up, and on top of that most of them are absolutely horrible for your health to breathe in. Just turn on the fan and wait a few minutes.

    I don't think I have ever in my life been in someone's bathroom where they just had stink spray sitting out. A plug-in air freshener or something, sure, but not a spray. They might have it in the cupboards but I don't go snooping.

    You boys need an introduction to Bath & Body Works. I'm pretty sure you could eat shit, give your mouth a spray with those things and not taste it. They aren't your run of the mill Febreeze junk.

    Bathroom perfume is the worst trend. If you like it, I hate you.

    Jeez, we share an account and a sink... Even though we have two sinks, we chose to share a single sink. It must be a trust thing

    Dual washrooms? As in, two ensuites? Baller...

    Ultimate trust is your wife letting you pee through her legs while she’s taking a shit.

    But why would you need to pee in the bucket? Just like, as a trust test?

    Because she obviously has food poisoning and has been splatter house rocking the bucket for hours all while you quietly sip from your flask praying for a quick death while it's 36° outside and you've been stuck there for 3 hours.

    Agreed.

    I wish misterman wouldn't have brought up Bath & Body Works... Gross.
