Hi. This thread is old, but wanted to update...
B"H B"H B"H I'm in a much better place now. (with lots of work and siyata dishmaya)

Things started going uphill when my husband started doing well at his job bh. As soon as he started making money, he stopped looking at how much I spend and stopped complaining about general basic expenses.

I will not say that everything is perfect and we don't have ups and downs... but I will say that I spent more money over the past few months than I did in the past. I bought myself some new clothes as well as other accessories I wanted and it came with little or no arguing bh.

Just want to tell everyone out there going through a similar situation that there is hope.

So happy to hear! Thanks for updating.

Bh glad to hear things have improved but you do need to sit down and discuss things if god forbid money becomes a issue again you don't need to live on tender hooks all the time

Was his behavior stemming from anxiety about not having enough? I mean obviously his controlling behavior was unacceptable, but if the motive was anxiety that's a lot different than just purely to control you.
So happy things are in a better place now, halevai vaiter!

Was most likely a combination of anxiety and feeling of no self-worth/ low self esteem.
