My (28) and DH(33) are newly married this year. (Apologize if i do not explain the situation well). I was working but now I do not. My husband provides a majority of the income. We have had separate bank accounts when we first got married. Since he provides a majority of the income, mostly everything is paid through his accounts. I usually do not know how much we have exactly or how we are doing together financially. Now I feel like we need a single joint account or access to each other’s financials. I have asked access to his accounts and he says that it is not necessary and that we should not have to give each other that information. He said that encourages a controlling relationship for his wife to have access to his bank accounts. Now I do not know if I am seeing this wrong, but if he wanted access to mine or anything else I wouldn’t care. I see us as partners through and through. I feel as though it is not a big deal to share this information. But he says that I do not need to see every transaction he makes. But even if I did look at that, I don’t see the big deal because I wouldn’t care if he dug into my information, I have nothing that he can’t see and I am committed to him but he sees it as controlling. I want to see how we could be better or save money or see our status as we are in a partnership. What do you guys think?
