What is inherently private about a wallet?

It is merely a vessel for carrying money in all its forms.

Do y I carry tampons and shite in your wallet? You probably should how much your pussy is bleeding and over something so inconsequential.


If you are that damn worried about it you could at least be rational and tell her "hey it's not a big deal because you were just grabbing cash but in the dfuture could you just hand me my wallet and I'll get whatever out of it." instead you treated her like a child because youre a crazy person.

What is private about it? Private from a gf anyways. She lets you in her body and you have issues about her opening your wallet?

My wife rarely goes in mine. No need to really. And I certainly stay out of her purse, strange stuff in there. But if we do then we let the other know out of courtesy. But have never made a big deal out of it.

I guess I have some things in my wallet that I wouldn't want just any stranger going through, e.g. credit cards, etc, but I don't see the big deal with a friend/family/SO or whatever.

You sound like a controlling-territorial DB. Doesn't mean you are, but that's just how you come across.

You're worried about a wallet and its privacy you feel it holds??

Man are you gonna have some intense growing pains when you have a wife and kids who charge in the bathroom when you're taking a shite.

You better get over that quick.

You way overreacted, IMO. Yes, it was weird for her to just grab the cash out without you specifically saying, “hey, go grab cash from my wallet.” But you made it sound extra harsh by saying “never go through my wallet again.” Especially because you didn’t catch her sneakily going through your shite. I’d be reconsidering a relationship with someone who had that reaction.

To answer your question, we frequently ask each other to get something out of the other’s wallet. I feel zero weirdness about this. I’ve never felt compelled to just look through his wallet for no reason, but that isn’t what your gf was doing, either.

Keep to it man. Dont apologize unless you feel you could have told her in a different way. if she's upset about that, but dont apologize for the msg itself.

I've been in your shoes, and now I just tell girls a head of time that I have some old school different ways that I was brought up with that'll come out randomly. Please understand/respect them when they come up. This wallet thing is actually one of the examples I use. Set expectations early, and letting little things like "she just grabbed some cash no biggie" just sets precedent that contradicts something you obviously feel strongly about. You nipped it in the bud early, and now she knows.

Sure, if he needs something out of it.

He carries my ID for me when I don't feel like carrying a purse, so I'll get that out of his wallet sometimes when I remember he has it. We are married and share bank accounts/credit cards so it doesn't really matter.

I do ask before I take any cash though, in case he was saving it for something.

way to be that guy barney fife.

If you want to be weird about your wallet then be weird about your wallet, but if you're a dick about being weird about your wallet then don't be surprised when you come up single for treating a grown woman like a child.

My wife used to go into my wallet on occasion. I truly believe she was thinking I had something to hide (that would be a dumb place to hide anything, right). There was nothing, but she would occasionally take cash I had in there. This pissed me off. I mean it is technically her money also, but when you think you have cash only to find out it has been removed when you are ready to pay for something, it sucks.

On a related note, she is very protective about her purse. I don't give a frick anymore.

Y’all probably need to break up then.

This kind of fight is just going to keep happening. She has different expectations from the relationship than you do, so y’all are always going to have different ideas of where the boundaries should be.

My advice, stop wasting her time and let her go find someone who she can develop a relationship with.

Should never go into your wallet. That was her way of checking up on you.
Wife is ok, but no GF should ever have access to your $$ in any way.
