Not knowing your circumstances I find that it is OK ,He is only letting you know that your worth every cent he paid.. unless he bought it at $2.00 shop LOL
Doesn't mean he tells others though, it's just that your special ♥♥♥

I don't think it's that big of a deal. When you are married you share expenses. I guess it would also depend on what he's telling you cost how much. I mean if it were Christmas or your Birthday and he was telling you exactly how much everything cost, that would probably be unwise, because hopefully you'd have set up a budget for that, but a little pick me up or something I wouldn't worry too much about. I've been there, done that in relationships.

Sounds like Money is a issue in your home.
He tells you so it's not a problem when the bill comes due.
Think about it he's really trying to be nice you just want it both ways.
You want the present but not the deal of knowing how much it costs HIM and YOU...

I'm married. My husband doesn't tell me. I can find out because I pay the bills but I don't seek that information out.
I just pay the bills.
In his defense, he may be telling you for the reason he says. Do you handle the finances? Does he? It does seem a bit tacky.

He is an idiot really why tell someone how much they spent on a gift let them think you spent alot even if you got it on special. Most people think it rude to ask it is the thought that counts.

It all depends on why he is telling you.
If it is to impress you because it was so expensive, then that isn't right.
If it is because money is a bit tight and he doesn't want you to worry that it will break the bank, then I can understand. I know if my husband has bought something for me that looks really expensive I can feel a bit worried. After all, it's our money, really.

My wife's and my assets are completely integrated as one, even if I didn't tell her when she checks the bank statements she'd see it. What we do on birthdays and such is tell the other not to look at the bank statement for that month. But she'll tell me how much things cost and sometimes I tell her. It really doesn't mater to us.

Girl, just be glad he bought you a present. If he tells you everything thats fine, but from past experience with my last and former husband......... dont tell anything that you dont want throwed back in your face someday.

He thinks the amount he is telling you is showing you how much he loves you. Tell him that you know he loves you but you do not want him to tell you how much things cost. He could be exaggerating as well on the amount he payed.

Tell him you don't want to know how much the presents that he buy you cost. Simple solution.
