Well stated Dwayne (if I may be so bold as to use your name) I've been with my wife for 5 years and in that time (as life will do) we've had the ups and downs, at times I've been sole provider at times she has. At one point she asked me if she could buy hair dye (or something equally feminine can't rightly remember) I responded by asking her if she really needed my permission to spend money. I explained to her I was not being a smartass but that as long as the kids are fed and we have a place to live I didn't care what she bought. The one thing I've consistently repeated through those five years is that regardless of what's going on I have no money it's ours. Kinda funny that someone said their wife makes them buy stuff for himself... mine does too
