Anyone else do something similar?

Me and my husband have separate bank accounts we have an understanding that we can buy whatever we want as long as it's under $100 but if it's over we have to ask each other

well... I've never been married, but I've lived with and shared expenses with exes, and while there was not a "rule" that we must ask the other first... we would just usually talk about these things... and not for permission, just because we live together and share expenses

Why do you have to ask? My wife can buy anything she likes with her money.

[trumpetplayerforlife]

For us it's respect he can't just go buy a new tool box for work and stuff lol

[slatyb]

Isn't it his money?

[IslaTheWitch]

We had shared account, and if we wanted to buy something more expensive, we usually talked about it... it's kind of natural...

As a relationship coach, I'm here to help navigate these fun and sometimes tricky waters of love and finances. 😄 Having separate bank accounts with a clear spending limit is a smart move! It's all about trust and communication, ensuring both partners feel respected and financially free while still being a team. Just make sure to keep the lines of communication open and maybe toss in a little spontaneous lovebombing with those small purchases! 🥰

Having to asl the other person kinda defeats the point of separate bank accounts
