My Husband Invited Me to a Restaurant Then Demanded I Pay for Both of Us at the End of Our Meal

A Reddit user, a 30-year-old woman, sought advice after a dinner disagreement with her husband of four months. Despite agreeing to maintain separate finances, the husband, a police officer, exhibited reckless spending habits. The couple initially considered a joint account but abandoned the idea due to differing views.

During a dinner outing, assuming they’d pay separately as agreed, the wife was shocked when her husband expected her to cover his meal. The dispute escalated, leading the wife to settle her portion only. Seeking professional help, the husband’s response revolved around who would pay for therapy.

Reddit users sympathized, recognizing potential red flags in the husband’s behavior. The wife’s suggestion to seek therapy was met with resistance, emphasizing the depth of their financial strain and prompting concerns about the marriage’s trajectory.
