Man receives €200 gift card from work, wife flips out when he refuses to share it with her: 'When she used her discounts to get stuff, it was all for her, not for us'

One of the most common sources of arguments among married couples is how they should share their resources. If marriage is a partnership, then it makes sense that you should communicate clearly about what you exchange with each other. However, it is common for this not to be as clear-cut as it should be, leading to arguments and disagreements on many different levels.

This includes things as personal as gifts, as one husband recently found out. He received a bonus in the form of a gift card at work, and his wife was already planning on how to spend it when he informed her he only wanted to use it on himself. He reasoned that as she didn't let him use the brand discounts she got at her job, this was fair. It was up to the internet to decide whether that was truly the case when it came to this partnership.

It does seem like there seems to be a sense of entitlement here. What is keeping her from sharing her company discount?
