Money can be a sensitive topic in any relationship, especially when both partners have different views on how finances should be managed after marriage.
A Malaysian woman found herself in a dilemma after her future husband allegedly insisted on taking control of her entire salary once they were married.
Planning to get married next year
According to mStar, the woman said she and her fiancé were planning to tie the knot next year.
However, her fiancé had set a condition that made her question whether she should proceed with the marriage.
According to the woman, her fiancé said he would be the one holding all of her salary after they get married.
When the woman asked why he needed full control of her income, her fiancé reportedly said the money would be kept and used for family emergencies.
She added that he remained firm firm about the arrangement despite her expressing that she was uncomfortable with it.
Says his parents use the same arrangement
The woman said her fiancé justified the condition by pointing to his own parents’ marriage, where they had practised the same financial arrangement for years and remained happily married.
However, she appeared unsure whether an arrangement that worked for his parents would also be suitable for their relationship.
The woman also shared that her fiancé was employed and earned between RM4,000 and RM5,000 a month.
On top of his full time job, he also worked as a part time e-hailing driver to earn additional income.
Despite both of them having their own earnings, he allegedly remained determined to manage all of her salary after marriage.
Concerned about the condition and his refusal to accept her rejection, the woman asked others whether she should continue with their marriage plans.
