The best model I've seen for financial planning as a couple is as follows:
First, total up your combined income.
Then each partner gets an equal amount (say 5%) they can spend however they want without consulting the other partner. (It is very important that both get an equal amount regardless of who earns more income.)
Finally the remaining amount is used to pay for things like rent or mortgage, utilities, groceries ect. with both partners having input into the creation of that budget.
if you've got your own personal account, it shouldn't be any of his business what you spend your money on unless you can't foot your bills
Aside from the shared account, if you have your own bank account for personal expenditures then you have nothing to worry about.
I don't like this woman. She is annoying. Bring back that Love U thing.
if you have a problem with a women spending your money, here is a tip.. Don't marry a spoiled girl.. Most likely an only child.. those one usually turn out to be the most material "stuff" crazy.
