Why did my husband spend our wedding anniversary money?
Our 1st wedding anniversary is tomorrow-April 3rd. He said he wanted to take some money out of his pay last week so he could put it aside for our wedding anniversary this week. We live on a quiet country road and have always enjoyed our evening strolls. He asked me if I wanted to take our walk last night-Friday- when I got home from work, stating that he missed taking our walks lately. After we had been walking for about 10 minutes, a neigbor of ours that he works with stopped his car to say hi. There was a weird vibe there and when he said, "I'll call you later, man" I got a bad feeling. My husband waited until he drove away and said, "Ummm.. I did not get paid today. My boss is getting audited and there's an issue with his workman's comp insurance he has to get straightened out. The checks are being held until then. He says he'll have it straightened out by Monday." I said, "Well, we still have some money in the account and at least we have the extra hundred we took out last week to celebrate our anniversary with." He said, "Ummm... About that. I loaned that money to my boss this morning so he could buy all of us breakfast and he didn't have the cash on him. He said he would pay it back by the end of the day when I got my paycheck and then found out in the afternoon that he couldn't pay us today." Thats when I got upset. We didn't have enough to really celebrate our anniversary. I started crying and asked him Why he would offer that money to his boss to buy the guys breakfast knowing it was for our celebration. He got angry with me and said, "I wanted breakfast." The more I cried the angrier he got until it ended with him calling me a F....er and saying, " Who gives a ..... if we end up celebrating our anniversary next Monday or even next Friday. Your being a selfish b..ch. You couldn't be decent or more understanding, could you?" We were about two miles down the road by then and it was pitch black. He turned and walked away from me and I ended up walking home alone. He threw a blanket and a pillow on the couch when I got home and told me that I was not to come into HIS bedroom. He called me this afternoon from work and apologized, but I still can't believe he treated me like that. How do I handle this? I think it might be time to consider leaving and I feel he did not tell me everything about the money situation. I feel trapped financially and our wedding anniversary plans are ruined. And where would my daughter and I go if we did leave? Big questions. Any advice?
