Change
Today has dawned like many days in England, overcast and grey. My wife and I had an argument this morning concerning money, surprise surprise.
But she had a real case today as you know what, I had spent money again that she knew nothing about! Which I had tended to do many times in the past and even recently.
Anyway, I felt belittled during certain parts of our argument, but I calmed down and she managed to vent, because she was naturally frustrated concerning my lack of communication regards our expenditure. Now I must add at this point that it has been extremely difficult for me over the past week or so, since I asked her for help managing the home finances, I have felt at times as though my B_ _ _LS have been cut off, my male pride I suppose...
But do not get me wrong, this is only me getting used to change. Change is never really liked by most people, myself included, but change is always good. I have felt amazingly free this week, as our home financial issues have been shared with my wife, and let me tell you, she is an amazing organiser.
I will leave you with this bit of advice, share things with your spouse, communicate with each other: your life, your relationship will be better for it.
