My one year landmark is coming up and I decided to reward myself with a new high end mod. So last night I'm on the computer looking at some options and decided to get a nemesis clone. Well my wife saw me place the order and I can't seem to adequately explain to her why I wanted it. After all it wouldn't function any different then my silver bullet. So she's ...... at me for wasting all that money, all $50 of it. Eventually I got really upset with her and said, " well if you have such a problem with this I can always go back to cigarettes." This did not go over well.

ouch! noooooo nooooooo nooooooooooo; never get upset.....

anything you say, can , and WILL be used.....
 
This is why my husband and I have separate accounts for our spending money. I don't see his fast food and video game purchases and he doesn't see the useless crap I buy.

Thats how we do it. We both transfer XXX dollars each month to the "House" account. I never touch that, let my wife handle that. Then we both have our own accounts for guitars, ecig, hookers and whatnot

Man I wish you guys would tell my husband how lucky he is . Every time I buy myself piece of vape gear I buy him one as well . I bought myself a silver Provari so I bought him a satin black one. I bought a Chi you so I bought him a Nemisis and the list goes on and on. He isn't even a full time vaper , he still smokes as well. All I get is a slight smile not even a thank you. I work and make very good money so it's not like he's paying or anything. Dam.

yeah lucky for sure!

My deepest sympathies to all the married people that have to consistently ask, argue, debate, and hide in order to do what they want to do ... :facepalm:

Amen, Nikki.

It just seems so odd to me that it's even a negotiation. I would just get rid of any woman if she attempted to tell me how to spend my money. There are lots more out there.

Amen to that too, I am not mad at ya! Why should any grown person have to deal with that? ... I was married for a split second, and I got out of that even quicker than I got into it! :laugh:

My personal life is to be enjoyed, and I will not tolerate anyone getting in the way of that! If you are not a Joy, then you are a pain, in which case you must get out of my Life!

Sounds like my family. I was going to purchase some device and asked my wife about it. She asked how much and said nah it could be better someone else. So I didn't. She gave me a kiss goodbye and I asked where she was going? It was her monthly

Now my dear lion friend. Not all of us posted a negotiation. :)

With a fixed income it was simply a matter of looking at the budget and figuring out what we could afford. Not a negotiation at all. He wants me vaping and frankly wishes we could have spent more early on so I would have spent less long run LOL.

No offense intended, Myra. If it works for you, that's great. I was simply echoing Nikki's sentiment.

I work very hard for my money. I have been able to make a fair amount after 25+ years of working. It's mine, and everyone else's vote on how I spend it counts for zero.

I always compare it to her mani's and pedi's and just call me ordering my things "maintenance" for keeping me off cigs. It's something we all enjoy to do, a hobby if you will. Sure it may not be "necessary" but hell neither is buying soda or a bunch of other crap that everyone has around the house and we do that anyway.

As with everything in life, there are trade-offs. I may not get to spend "my money" however I want, but if I were single, I wouldn't have access to his income either.
