Woman Requests A Contract Be Signed Before Borrowing $14k To Her Husband, Gets Accused Of Making The Whole Thing Difficult
A married couple decided to divide their finances equally as the man had kids from previous marriages to take care of. The wife insisted on a contract when the husband asked to borrow $14k from her account.
The husband declined to sign and said that she didn't believe in him. OP's husband left to God knows where and she has called him several times, but he has not yet returned.
Is the wife wrong to insist on a written agreement and to keep her ground? Let's find out, but before then, let's get into the story properly.
It can be challenging to navigate the waters of family and relationships when it comes to money. But in this woman's instance, she's not taking any chances.
OP has never been married, but her husband has been married twice and has six kids. OP's husband has been struggling with money and borrowed from a number of people, including hee own brother.
When her husband asked to withdraw $14k from her account, she insisted on a contract guaranteeing that he would pay her back in full. Indignant, her husband resisted, even going so far as to refer to her in a disparaging manner.
The woman is left to question if she made a mistake by sticking up for herself in this circumstance. Let's examine the subject in more detail, as the full story lies below.
