Satowind don't mind these guys telling you you'r married to a stranger for not telling you her salary.
It is not peculiar to you. smiley

I don't usually tell my hubby the exact increment I receive on my salary else he'll cut down the
amount he gives me for house upkeep embarassed
You are not a faithful housewife ma. If he reduces the house keep allowance, you should know or ask where the other difference goes to

It maybe dt her salary is bigger than urs, and if ur d egostic type she might nt wnt to tell u. Again, it culd be dt she doesn't wnt to share some major responsibilities cos wt wat she earns, u might look up to her to shoulder some. Or jux maybe she isn't comfortable yet in telling u, so I suggest u let it go for nw, n allow her open up to u wen d time is right for her. Besides d way ur goin abt it, might be wats scaring her frm nt tellin u. Let it go for nw or evn forever, I believe u cn take care of ur family with or without her help.

My beloved sister,
It's very important that you inform your husband of any raise you get in your salary and job, it will help him to appreciate you, celebrate you and value you the more.
Marriage is far deeper than the surface most people scratch.

bros... the so called wife is keeping secrets from the husband and that is not healthy for any marriage. But come to think of it who is a wife and what is her role in the life of a man if not to help the man.

I thought I was the only one in this mess. I did not know my wifes salary for the 8 years she worked but she know mine until we divorced. The reason is that if you know her salary she feels you may not give her enough money anymore.
Re: Why Do People Keep Their Salaries Secret? by donhils: 3:17pm On Nov 10, 2015
Many reasons. Your friends might be seeing you as a big boy/girl until they see how much you're earning. Others would turn you to their Jehovah Jireh if they knew how much you earned. Some men could become irresponsible if they found out their wives are equal to the task & vice versa. Plus other echetram echetram reasons.
However, spouses are NOT allowed to hide their salaries, it's wrong.
Re: Why Do People Keep Their Salaries Secret? by Nobody: 3:18pm On Nov 10, 2015
She must be one of those people with the mindset that
Your money is OUR MONEY and my money is MINE alone.

OR, you're stingy :- so she thinks, knowing her worth would make you reduce her "Federal allocation"

Whichever case, it's a very bad one on both sides. Financial n*kedness is very important in marriage.
I wonder why couples, especially women do this rubbish_ then cry foul when the man refuses to make them next of kin. Nawa o

If I were you, honestly, I won't bother at all, in as much I can run my home in a manly manner. I will even be giving her pocket money in respect of her salaries. Women, they've been secretive since the beginning of creation. Did you ever read in the bible that Eve confess to Adam that a boyfriend (serpent) show her the apple that she gave him to eat? My man, abeg,leave story. It is well.
