i am a husband and i give money to my wife, whether i am with her or working out of town. i give her money for she is the one who budgets it. she is the one who saves too so if there is enough saving then we can buy something we both wanted or we use the money to go out or outings. if you wont accept the money your husband is giving then he might spend it all for himself. get it and save some for the rainy days that what wives do. welcome to the wonderful world of mylot.

I think you should accept the money. Isn't the money both of yours? It's a partnership, right? Besides, if he's offering, why not? If you really feel awkward accepting help from your husband, you can always pay him back.

He is your hubby.. you are one. And there is nothing wrong if you accept money from him at all. It's a different thing if he is just a boyfriend cause sometimes it is awkward. But knowing he is your husband then you are his responsibility. I don't think there is anything you should worry about.

yuki hi, don't feel bad when he is offering to help, but I see your point. I've been with my hubby for 22 years & still feel somewhat bad when I accept money from him, but as long as it's for good use for the family & our home we shouldn't feel that way or if it's to help you out.. He'll be happy if u accept it, he's showing his love by helping you since he is far away.. My husband does the working & gives me the money to handle the bills & what we need for the family & home.. So please take the money to help yourself, it's showing him u love him & he'll feel better because he's helping u.. Have a great day mylot friends...

i feel the same as you do when it comes to financial matters. but if you know that you'd really need it and would only use it for good then there is nothing bad in accepting the offer. i'm sure you wouldn't be abusing your hubby and would only take the help if you'd really need it. me and my boyfriend talked about this before, he told me that who else would help each other but me and you. and if you change status you'd also do the same, which is help him.

Hi,
From my point of view,It is fine to get
financial help from your husband.There is no need
to be shy to your husband and he has the right to
support you.
I am just wondering whether are you working?
If no,then of course, it is your husband duty to support
you financially.
If you do have any difficulty, you should talk to your
husband and get his help.

well, i think it is alright to ask if you are in need. look at it this way, if he asked you, will you be willing to give him? love is about sharing.he may be giving you not out of the abundance has has but out of the heart and willingness to share the little he has.you now, too much of everything is equally bad
