| My fiance Steve is great in almost every way.He treats me nice,is intelligent and works hard.The problem is that I think he's cheap!He earns a really good living buying junk houses and foreclosed houses,renovating them and then either selling them or renting them out.Right now he owns over 20 units he's renting out,plus he usually turns a house every month or so.But he just doesn't like spending the money he makes.January we were going to my cousin's wedding and I needed some new shoes and purse. Steve let me use his amex card and then went nuts when he found out I spent $1700 on a Marc Jacob's bag and a pair of nice shoes.He got upset over this but a week later he spent over $3000 on an air compressor and tools and nail guns that he said he 'needed'.I see some hypocrisy here.He says I'm spoiled because my dad bought me a car and pays my rent and utilities.I love him and don't want to lose him,but sometimes think he is a little too frugal. |

| He's not cheap - you're out of line. Tools are a neccesity when you're in the business of house flipping. And yes dress attire for a wedding is neccesary - but you probably spent more on shoes and a bag, than the bride spent on her dress. Thats rediculous. You ARE spoiled. If you want to spend 1700 dollars on things it should be with your own money. You aren't married yet, so he should not be handing over his AMEX and you should not be trying to dictate how he spends his money. If daddy paid for your car and pays your bills, you should be able to afford the things you want. Not leech off your fiance. I hope he gets his head on straight and realises he's being taken for a ride. He's not cheap, you're gold digging. |

| You should have bought the cheaper purse and shoes. He will use the compressor for his house repair business... |

| You need help. spending that much money on a bag and shoes is stupid, and that was his money that you used, not yours that you worked for. You are spoiled. |

| In his line of work, yes he needs them, you spending $1700 on a purse is way too much!!! That could pay all of my rent and utilities for a month!! If you like just giving away money like that, give me some please. |

| 1700 on a purse???i mean really thats overboard. you are trying to take advantage of him. you should know the housing market right now is at a stand still. he is just trying to provide a better life for your future. you should tell him you are sorry and return the bag or sell it. |

| You spent how much on shoes and a bag?? I don't think he's the problem. It's not cheap of him to renovate houses and sell them - it's smart - very smart!! |

| Look, you two need to discuss finances and spending habits BEFORE you get married.This includes a discussion about savings accounts, investments, college fund for the kids, shopping, vacations personal spending and and what percentage you will both contribute to the household.The #1 factor for divorce is money.This may be a small issue now but could turn into a very large one later. Your concern is a red flag and needs to be addressed.Truth be told, a man who is rigid with his money is usually rigid and controlling over other things as well. Be careful. |

| Hate to break it to ya but you sound kind of spoiled. If you think it's okay to spend $1700 on a purse and some shoes then you should be spending your money not his. He does need tools so that he can make a living......which is how the bills get paid, including the credit card bill you just charged up! |

| This is a set-up ah? Surely you are not serious about what you have written. If you are - then you are one sick, spoilt, inconsiderate CHILD. I suppose this is what happens when daddy gives his little girl everything she wants. I just wish your fiance would write in with the reverse problem (you spending too much) and I would tell him to get as far away from you as possible as you will never grow up and just keep spending money as if you are entitled to it!!!You had better grow up really quick and get some values or you will lose him. |

| Can we say GOLD DIGGER??!! Come on girl you know you are in the wrong, $1,700 on a pair of damn shoes that go on your damn feet and you will get all messed up in about 2 wears IF you wear them that much!! And a damn purse you should have given that to the bride as a gift!! Then maybe he would not have been so mad. What did you give her and her new hubby?? I bet it did not cost more then $50.00 did it?? Damn I hope he is happy with you, and I hope you are one smoking hot woman because, then you will be the best couple the Gold Digger and the man with the torphy wife! |

| He is right you are SPOILED!!!!! you have everything handed to you so you could not possibly understand what its like to work, pay bills, and manage your fiances wisely. You silly girl he needs the tools to work so he can continue to make money and on the other hand I bet you will just wear those shoes once and use the bag once and forget all about them. Honestly I think you just posted this question to get attention, |
