I think that people would lie about money if they were spending it on something that they are ashamed of or something bad that they wouldn't want to be found out. But for partners to lie about their money, I can say that they probable reason might be the too much control or demand of the other partner. Lying about money was often done by male or usually the provider if their wife is being too stingy. I mean the husband would of course want to buy some luxury items occasionally too. Being a provider I guess its just normal to want something for yourself sometimes and if the wife would always question this things like, "You don't need those!", "That's a waste of money! You should have something more useful in our house!". Things like this would cause the husband to lie about money and take few for himself instead so he could buy things without having to face those annoying questions. Some husbands are abusive too that they were spending almost all of their incomes that the wife would have to lie about it so she would still have enough budget to fill their daily needs. So if both husband and wife really love each other, I think there wouldn't be problems like these. Because their love would give them respect and trust. Respecting the needs of each other and willingly give what was wanted by their partner. They would also understand that there are things that they wouldn't have sometimes especially if they're getting short on budget but it's okay because they trust each other and they believe that its just fair and no one is trying to fool their partner just to benefit his/her own. -)

Because they do not know their partner well, so they fear to tell the partner why he/she needs more money. You can also say because they do not trust each other.

If this is accurate it should not be as a husband and wife should be sharing absolutely everything. With this I mean the money and the financial burdens so they should not be keeping this in hiding from one another so that together they two can work on resolutions.

hello there pit33pit! when money has been the issue in a relationship, it sometimes breaks it. but for the reason why they tend to lie with their partner it is because of what character or up bringing they have. if you are good in managing your finances and the your partner is not then one of you should tell the other one of what character he/she has. like what i had experienced,i have a boyfriend whom i told him once of how stingy he was. its because im one of those person who loves to spend money as long as im enjoying. i also told him that money can be earned thats why we are working. but the test of fate came, i resigned from my previous job and they did not give what was to be given for me. and because i dont have any savings and also not that open in borrowing from my mom, wherein i need to start again and i need money for a month for my daily allowance. im so blessed that i have him. he let me lend me money to him, and he did not let me to pay. and when we i need to buy something, i let him know. and what i buy now is what i needed and not i want. :)

hi, well,yes me too, i do that especially when my partner dont seem to save money, because the hardness to have money that push me to lied about my money, so that my partner will really dont know about the money i have, so still he will pursue to work hard and save money too.
