How to tell hubby that I've spent $600 from our joint account on myself on things that I like when it's supposed to be our savings account? We agreed not to touch it, but I secretly broke our agreement. Gosh I'm very guilty.

Be honest and tell him straight.

First of all, make a plan to replace it. Then you need to tell him what you've done, what your plan is to replace it, and how you feel so badly about it. Also, you might want to consider getting some counseling for this. You know, shopping can become an addiction like a drug. You probably did this to fill a void of some sort. If you find that you are tempted to do this again, seek help and tell him immediately that you feel that you might do it again and you need to get help. He should come around and see that you are trying very hard to never let it happen again. But he will be upset. Good luck...

Just like you just told all of us. No reason to make up anything after all when you got married it was for better or worse and Im sure your hubby loves you so right now this is the worse. Just dont make it a habit to keep breaking agreements

Start by telling him you've done something terrible & that you hope he can forgive you.
Offer to put $600 back in the bank a little at a time the best you can.

I wish we had an extra 600 that I could spend on myself. Seriously though you should tell him and expect him to be angry and don't wait till he stumbles on it on a bank statement or when he is trying to take money out that will make it harder.

With someone, as Lovely, as yourself? He's putty, in your hands. But give him some respect. What if you saw money, missing? You'd think he was stepping out on you. You need to be straight forward. make it up by putting some serious Love Making on him? We men tend to forget about Problems, after one of those. Good Luck. No more Boo-Boo's!

I have been in the same pinch, but please tell him, I waited a long time and it was worse, it will be hard but sit him down and just explain what you have done then try to work out a reasonable pay back plan, it may take awhile but steady payments means less problems.

Marriage is based on trust and honesty in the relationship. You must tell him that you broke this trust, and that you are sorely ashamed, beg forgiveness. Expect him to be mad, and don't argue that point; he's entitled.
This is a sign of immaturity. Maybe you need to grow up.

well, by working hard and putting the new cash back in the bank! Then the letters you receive, just throw them secretly or hide it forever

"We" didnt agree......did we? He said and you said ok rather than say no, I need it to be more flexible. So...tell him you are going for therapy to see why you feel the need to make him into a Daddy figure in a parent child relationship.....and add...yes I did spend the $600.

Eh, it's just $600 dollars, just tell your husband and I suppose you have another account? Just pay him back!
