my husband thinks that i do not know how to handle my finances. he's unemployed and i take care of all the bills and expenses. he expects me to save some money. but i am having a hard time because i think we are spending so much on eating out, which he likes and we spend a lot during those times. he argues that it should not be the reason because we don;t do it everyday. but frequency is not the point, it's the amoutn we spend on that one time.he can't get that. now he wants to get all my salary on payday and he'llbe the one to manage it to show me that he can do it. should i? i have given him money in the past, which he just spent carelessly. but i am also thinking that we might do it better that way because he would have to prove that he can handle the money better than i do.
last night, i opened the topic again. i showed him the complete ilst of all the expenses to prove that i am not spending more than i should except for the times that we ate out.
any ideas out there?
