My desktop's been having some major issues, the worst of which is random reboots. So what does my wife say in response?

"Well, I guess it's time that you got a new computer."

Core2Duo, here I come! :D:D

In a healthy relationship its not permission, but you still don't just buy everything without the other person's approval and/or knowledge.

My wife and I don't spend more then $50 without each others knowledge. Two person finances can get a little bit tricky, even if you are ahead of the power curve.

What he said. People may say I need to turn in my man card; I think they just need to move out of their parent's home and see what the real world is like. :)

Even if all your bills are paid, and you work for the money, and you want something?
I would never tell someone how to spend their money as long as the bills were paid.

Yes. I have quite a bit tucked away since I've been deployed, and my wife is barely working, and I have no bills. Yet I still talk to her about stuff that I buy. She actually very rarely tries to stop me, and never outright says no anyways.

So it's to keep the peace?
