A Few Days After Our Wedding, My New Husband Dumbfounded Me With, ‘We’ll Be Giving Your Salary to My Mom. She’ll Teach You How to Spend It Properly!’

Sandra thought marriage meant learning to share space. Instead, a week in, Matt announced, “We’ll be giving your salary to my mom. She’ll teach you how to spend it properly!” Shocked, Sandra refused, saying, “I’ve worked hard for my independence, and I’m not giving it up.” But Matt insisted, defending his mother’s system: “50% goes to the husband, 25% for household expenses, and 25% for gifts.” Sandra knew she couldn’t accept this.

Deciding to outsmart them, Sandra feigned agreement. She texted Linda: “I’m on board with your system.” But privately, Sandra started investigating. Her suspicion grew as she noticed Linda’s expensive habits despite claiming to be frugal.

While Matt showered, Sandra found Linda’s notebook—evidence of reckless spending, including borrowed money to fund her lifestyle. Sandra devised a plan and confronted Linda during a “financial review.” She presented the evidence to Matt, who was stunned.

Sandra quietly transferred her paycheck back to her own account, declaring, “It’s MY money.” Linda stormed out in anger, and Matt, shaken, apologized: “I didn’t know…”

Sandra made it clear: “We’re partners, or this marriage is over.” Matt has since tried to repair the relationship, realizing, “I never saw how controlling she’s been.” While Sandra works on rebuilding trust, her paycheck—and independence—remain firmly in her hands.

So, was Sandra too harsh, or just standing her ground?
