When I started doing research for this column,
asking what sorts of money fights people have, every single couple said the same thing:
Well, we dont really fight about money.
Right, right,right, Id have to say,backing away from the flame of lies.
But we all have the occasional childish squabble, right?
Even then people were hesitant.Well... maybe, theyd say.
One woman described how her husband took away her credit card one day.
Not that they fought about it.
Or take another couple I know.
I was at their house recently when the husband came home from work with a new drum set.
He hadnt planed to drop 500 dollars on drums that day, he explained,
as he unloaded the car, he just saw a classified ad and thought,why not?
Although his wife appeared calm while I was there,
she told me later that they had a long discussion about the fact
that they had agreed to save money to buy a house
never mind their long-planned trip to Europe this summer
and why did he have to buy a drum set NOW?
What we have here is a failure to communicate.
Its a fairly common fight,
and it usually happens because the two people involved arent on the same page,
