I am always the optimist, when she worries about money I always say that it will come and it will be all right, and it always does turn out ok, the money comes in and we are OK for a while then it gets tight again and she freaks out about it, then we go through it again.
She wants total security of knowing that money will always be there, and I try to give that to her, but when it gets tight, she accuses me of not working hard enough or knowing this was going to happen and not taking the steps necessary to stop it.
We have never been more than 10 days late on anything, and I come from a wealthy family that would never let us go hungry, but I know she is looking for me to be the man that provides for her and make her feel secure.
By the way, after the money came in, she is back to her old self, had a great weekend, talked and laughed like nothing was ever said and were right back to being great.
Guess I will chalk it up to finacial stress on her part, but I would like her to own a little bit of how we get to these mini-crisis.
