When a couple doesn’t agree on how to handle big amounts of money, it can cause a lot of stress in the family. Frida and her husband had been saving for years to buy their dream home. But when his ex-wife got very sick, everything changed. He decided to use the money to pay for her medical care, which Frida strongly disagreed with. She took matters into her own hands and did something brave without telling him, which caused an immediate argument. Now Frida is telling her story and asking for help to make things better.

This is Frida’s letter:

“We’ve been putting money away for years to buy a house. But the ex-wife of my husband got sick. Things that help her cost a lot. “I can’t leave my son’s mom!” he said. She doesn’t have anyone!” I told her that if she didn’t have savings, it wasn’t our problem. He wouldn’t give up, saying it was his money.

I pretended everything was fine, but I was really making a plan. I used our savings to make the down payment on a house.
After a few days, my horrified husband came home and told me he knew what I had done. He yelled at me and told me I wasn’t allowed to take the money without first talking to him.

I did everything to protect the future of our family; his ex-wife shouldn’t be his responsibility anymore. Now, though, my husband won’t talk to me and has even said he might leave me.

What should I do?
Frida”
