Eight in 10 married people buy things that they don't tell their spouses about.According to a survey by CESI Debt Solutions, men are slightly more likely than women to engage in this soft deception. However, 43 percent of wives cop to buying clothing or accessories that they don't tell their husbands about, making fashion easily the most common purchase that a spouse of one gender hides from the other.
The purchase guys are most likely to keep from their wives is booze, which 21 percent of husbands have done.
"You're avoiding conflict or criticism from your partner," said psychologist Brad Klontz about this prevalent practice.
Then there are the 4 percent of husbands who neglect to disclose to their wives that they have bought an online dating membership. The motivation there could be a bit deeper than "avoiding conflict or criticism."

For many people, sadly, it's love until money issues crop up. We know what you love, BO! ;0

Wow. "Financial infidelity." I've never hear that term, but that is EXACTLY what it is! What an eye-opener. I don't DO that (thank god), but have certainly heard of people who do. I'm glad you got yourself out of that sad situation. That term is still stunning me. Anything that takes away from the well-being of the family is, indeed, infidelity. Wow.
I hope he's better now, too. Cheers to you, and Happy Holidays....

Why should a woman have to tell her Husband every time she buys something new to wear as long as she pays cash for it ? She shouldn't no more than he should have to tell her about the purchase on a new rifle or fighing rod or reel. I have been married to the same woman for 52 years and never question her about what she buys.

I'm sorry but I wouldn't consider not telling my husband I bought a sweater to be "lying" or "hiding." I'd consider it to be not boring my husband with something that wouldn't interest him. Presumably, he knows I wear clothes. Yes, I know about all his clothing purchases, but that's only because he never wants to shop for himself.

8 out of 10 huh, welll, my wife and I must be that other 2. When we first met, I was working factory job making good money,she worked in a bank. It is easy to tell which one of us would handle the checkbook! For over 25 yrs I have given her my pay checks, and she handles the monthly bills. We have been about to move from the Midwest, to So Cal,(loving that right now),raised 2 kids. I have no complains. The long-term investments, I did, as I had family in the Stock market. The rest of fight over $, not worth it. A happy home is where it is at!

So said by a man who's idea of a hot date is a recliner, a porno, and a bag of Cheetos. Luckily you share those Cheetos with your hand, hoss, or you wouldn't get any at all.

I've been married for 4 years. I've been with my husband for 8. I have never lied to him about anything let alone purchases. I feel that lying about anything even a white lie is still a lie and its damaging to trust. I do check with him before I buy higher priced items (anything over 50 dollars)but only as a courtesy. We made the agreement to get married together so why not go at our marriage as a team as well?

While I don't care if my wife tells me of every purchase (thank god she's smart and thrifty...more than me, even)...but I sure do like your attitude. However, on any significantly-priced item, we most certainly discuss the issue. I agree with you that working as a team is the only way to go. Well, for me its easy, because I'm the first to admit, "She's the brains of this outfit!" Thanks for your excellent comments!

Many of the people who make comments can't even use English correctly. As a former teacher, I am appalled at the spelling, verb usage, and slang used here. Didn't you learn anything in school ? It was taught correctly, but many of you didn't bother to listen or remember anything. Pathetic !!

There should be a spell check on this thing, we all make a mistake once in a while. No one is 100% correct all the time.

Geegee - The posters here are not writing a master's dissertation or sequels to War and Peace. They are merely giving off-the-cuff opinions of the article. I give credit to people who actually still write and attempt to spell. I understand everything written here, and my education could likely give yours a serious run for it's tuition dollar, yet I haven't insulted anyone. Maybe your lack of patience is why you are not a teacher any longer?

Wouldn't it be "can't even correctly use English?" I can't remember the stuff that the nuns tried to teach me over 40 years ago, but aren't you dangling your participle, GeeGee?

Oh please teach, go peddle your "political correctness" somewhere else. Nothing worse than a "know it all"

Geegee, you are just mean! Please look at your own work of art before you comment on others' comments. Proper and correct English and grammer does not use can't or didn't. That is slang! I am not sure you know what "appalled" really means as you do not even know what you are talking about in the rest of your paragraph. As for remembering what we were taught 20, 30 and 40 years ago, if we did not use it in 20 years, we obviously do not need it now. Peace and Happy Holidays! Lighten up and have some eggnog.
