If your partner/spouse did something naughty, like spending too much on the credit cards, would you forgive?

Question

Or would you do something equally as naughty?

Answer 1

This is not naughty just irresponsible and no - two worngs do not make a right.  WHy would you get into that t*t for tat mentality. That is immature and irresponsible. Yes, of course I would forgive, everyone makes mistakes and errors in life, that is life and that is how you learn, from your mistakes!~

Answer 2

we dont use credit cards as we have paid them off and it feels GOOD......however if he spent on them to the tune of a lovely holiday in the sun (yeah, remember what that is???) then I wouldnt be too cross :)

Answer 3

OMG im naughty?!!??!?!

Answer 4

Yes, I'd forgive. Partly it depends on how difficult the overspending makes life - if it's easy enough to pay off, then it's annoying, but it's no big deal. However, if it means that you're both heading seriously into debt, then it's much more serious.

I'd still forgive, but I would want to sit down and have as serious talk about making sure it doesn't happen again.

Doing something "equally as naughty" isn't going to help anything.

Answer 5

OOOOHHH I'd probably be the one who does the overspending, but if my partner did this I'd kill him.

After all its a woman's prerogative to overspend.

Having said that though my other half and I are really quite sensible and only occassionally have a big blowout. And we usually pay off the card within the month anyway.

Answer 6

You define that as "naughty"??

I must be evil then

Answer 7

I would surely not do something naughty too as that is childish. Forgiving depends on how deep in the s***s we would be

Answer 8

of course !!!!    THEN  bury her under the patio

Answer 9

Jesus, if that worse the worst he'd done - I'd be rolling around with joy (obviously depending on how much he'd spent).  Forgive, of course.  Equally as naughty? Up to you.

Answer 10

I would forgive him. There's not much I wouldn't forgive apart from the ultimate betrayal but once the trust has gone then it's over..
