ifyalways: Stale newsa really.

Kids are kids and should be taught that you can't take money or anything from anyone's bag without the persons express permission.

As they grow,there are exceptions. If there are emergencies and mom/dad are not at home,they can take money from mom's bag or dad's wallet.


God bless the kids in your care.

It is criminal...and should be treated as such in accordance with the law of the Federal Republic of Sharia. Cut off those two hands and say; "go and steal no more."

pheyikemi: Agreed. Wot belongs to him belongs 2u. But taking money frm his pocket wtout his awareness is equivalent to stealing. You could have told him u want to take some money out of his pocket, dat sounds better to avoid disputes.
dis i hear u say stealing? so i cant feel free to take his money but he can confidently take from my bag......hmmmmm

I wouldnt call it stealing. For me, My wife can take money from my wallet anytime she likes. Any money I dont want her to touch, I wont put it in my wallet. It works for me and may not work for some people. Me and my wife dont operate house keeping money system, so she is free to take money and use it anytime she wants.
@op If you took the money and later inform him that you did, that shouldnt be called stealing at all, it is the right thing to do, or else, where else does he want you to get the money.

There is nothing wrong as long as you are really and truly married.
I give my woman my credit cards whenever she needs money and she has never taken more than she needs.
But I know that majority of Nigerian men cannot emulate me since they are still behaving like men in the Dark Ages and still groping in the darkness of their fears of women who they see more as sex objects and baby factories and not their help mates as God made them for us.

Not sharing your earning with your life partner only makes you poorer and not richer.
It is foolish to be rich, but your wife is begging you for money.

It all depends on the size of his pocket and his heart too.
However always let him know whenever you 'fap' anything from there. But if he doesn't like it at all, please stop doing it, at least for peace's sake

Reason: I may nt check d money in my pocket b4 leavn d house, hoping i didn't spend it. And wud be embarrassd 2 start lukn 4 it.
babysnogls: I need to know. What is wrong in taking some change from your husbands pocket? Do all guys hate it or is it just mine?

Mine did not use to mind before but he later stopped me from doing it.(and i never took above a thousand naira.)

If i cooked food with my money and my hubby decides to scoop some without telling me, i wont get angry now, at least what is mine is his. Do all men dislike their wives taking money out of their pockets?

do you want your husband to fight with a danfo conductor or the filling station attendant on his way to work?

What caused his sudden change of heart? If you know, do you mind telling?

I'm curious. Afterall, he did not see it as a problem before now.

Your husband has married a thief. You will graduate to stealing hundreds of thousands. You cannot be recommended for certain jobs. If you find yourself as a bank cashier you will end up in prison. If I was your husband I would hand you over to the police and get a well bred wife who knows the definition of stealing and abhors it.

not every man is like that. I personally believe in sharing with whomever I'm with cos I don't want a situation where she'd tell me is because I didn't give her, she went out to get it from somewhere else. and moreover there can be no stealing in marriage cos what's hers is yours and what's urs is hers

I take money from my husbands pocket all the time but the point is I always tell him before I do so.
@OP, every marriage is different,and the fact is some men frown at wives taking their money,with or without their consent. Dearie,why not talk it over with him as you have explained on this thread? Communication/understanding matters a lot in any marriage/relationship.If the money is used for important and not frivolous/uneconomic purchases,am sure he will understand. Good luck.
Re: What Is Wrong In Taking Money From Your Hubby's Pocket? by Nobody: 12:42pm On Apr 15, 2013
Couple taking each other's money is not a sin but you must let him/her know, know the amount you took. Else, if its for the pretence that afterall he/she is my husband/wife, you are a thief.

Why will I not tell him I took an amount from him? Will he beat me? Why will he not tell me he took an amount from me, will I beat him? No. So for mutual benefit and for the kingdom of God, be truthfull in all areas.

Most women are guilty in this aspect, in the name of he is my husband. The most urgly aspect of it is when he ask and you deny it. Sin is sin. Stealing is stealing.

Wetin person no go hear from nairaland, so taking money from my hubby's pocket na stealing, haba, which kain love una dey practise so,

I take money from my hubby's wallet as I deem fit(u hardly see money in his pocket, if u like, wash 20 of his trousers in a day, u no go find kobo),even withdraw using his ATM as I like, why? cos he knows I dont spend lavishly, if for any reason I take his money, then it is for a good reason, that is what I term trust in marriage, even when he receives alert from any of his banks for an atm withdrawal, he just calls me to confirm if I was the one that made that transaction, and if I take money from his wallet, I tell him after, mostly not before, at times we even joke about it like
wifey: if anyone is looking for money, let him not curse o, na him love take am o
hubby: if anyone is looking for chicken/meat/fish, let her not be annoyed o, na her love eat am.

It is part of fun and love,

My wife is the only legal thief allowed near my pockets or anywhere I leave money in the house but honestly its better to seek permission first because the money might have been budgeted for something very important like booze or fuel...

You shouldnt assume because you are his wife you can take anything without his authorization ....
It is technically stealing if he doesnt know ... It is not hard to ask!

babysnogls:
G.G, everytime i eva took money, i told him. Its like ds: For example, i discover we run out of eggs in d house and i need to buy a crate and im short of cash, i just take money frm his pocket then go to where he is and say 'hon, i just took so so amount from ur pocket cos we nid eggs' or i even buy d eggs then tell him almost immediately. I dnt let him discover it, infact he neva knows. I just know i av to tell him.. I asked earlier, wat if he takes smtn dts mine b4 tellin me, did he also steal frm me?

If this seemingly flimsy example is what upsets your husband, then I will want to believe that this is recurring now and again and the man is just angry that you are making the last-minute-.com a habit, because you mentioned that he was not complaining previously. So if he does now, you should run a check and will be able to see that the signal is pointing to other direction.

taryour: The answer to your question depends on the kind of man you are married to. You alone know his likes,if you know he doesn't like it and you go ahead and do it then you looked for trouble and deserve whatever comes out of it. And for those that their hubby don't mind,courtesy demands that you inform him before or after you have taken it to prevent issues. Some men like to keep changes in their pockets for reasons known to them so as we women so when you now get there and can't find it is annoying. I know a man who forgets his wallet a lot at home or in his car and always has extra money in his pocket.that's my hubby so I don't go to his pocket so I don't get into trouble rather I wouldn't even mind putting more in his pocket for him sef.


Am sure he would even read this post and smile to himself cause I don complain tire oo.
hehehehehe....u dey use style advertise d luv 4 nairaland abi no worry ur hubby go see d post!
