They Had Always Kept Their Finances Separate\n

They had agreed to keep their finances separate for the past three years of their marriage. The arrangement worked for them initially, but it became an issue during the husband\u2019s celebration.\n

The woman\u2019s husband was delighted that he received a bonus at work. He told his entire family and invited them to celebrate his success with him at a restaurant.\n

The man planned it all \u2014 he chose the restaurant, the food and drink orders, and everything in between. It was a fun evening as they celebrated the man\u2019s professional achievement.\n

When the bill arrived, however, the woman was stunned.She expected her husband to cover the expenses since they were celebrating his receiving a bonus. Her husband handed her the bill and said, \u201cTake care of it.\u201d He assumed she\u2019d be willing to contribute to the celebration as some congratulatory gift to him.\n

The Man Claimed His Wife Was Bitter\n

They got into an argument at the restaurant, and her husband went on to call her \u201cvisibly bitter.\u201d Even at her husband\u2019s insistence, the woman refused to pay as she thought it was ridiculous for him to expect her to pay for his entire family\u2019s meals when it was his celebration.\n

To make matters worse, the man admitted he had yet to receive his bonus. He begged his wife to pay for the meals, and if she did, he\u2019d consider paying her back once he received his money.\n

Fed up, the woman paid for her meal. She was angered not only her husband but his entire family. There was so much commotion at the restaurant, and she decided to go home alone.\n

After the situation, the man\u2019s family bombarded her with unwarranted calls. The atmosphere at home between the man and woman was also clearly strained.\n

They continued to argue about what happened when the man went home. \u201cHe argued that if the roles were reversed and I got a bonus, he\u2019d celebrate me and my achievements and pay for the [expletive] meals after taking me and my family out,\u201d she wrote.\n
