āFinancial infidelity in marriages and relationships is so common. It is not a new thing. In fact it is the new Normal. But, it is so disastrous than even intimate infidelity.Ā Would you rather cheat or be cheated on intimately that financially when in a marriage or committed relationship?
Such questions are unceasingly debatable but truth be told relationships and marriages (of today) are mainly spoilt by financial related infidelities than Intimate infidelities. Take a look! Intimate infidelities are easy to hide and manage but financial infidelity manifests gradually and grows like cancer to never be cured if taken to some level.
Have you ever lied, hidden to your spouse about Money and assets? Sounds obvious i guess! šĀ Financial infidelityĀ is the secretive act of spending money, possessing credit and credit cards, assets, holding secret accounts or stashes of money, borrowing money, or otherwise incurring debt unknown or unwilling to one’s spouse, partner, or significant other. It is so disastrous than even intimate infidelity.
Could your partner be seemingly intercepting some of their/family financial details and plans? Are you noticing they are buying a lot of stuff yet you are not informed? Is money being transferred for reasons they havenāt told you about? Could you be having a scarcity of needs yet you are sure of abundant earnings?. Has your partner started planning mutually with you?
Such, are some of the signs!
I write more about this controversial issue with an extended understanding in my upcoming book dubbed #FAMILYSOUP. Where as all chapters of the book excite me and are super creative, realistic yet unconventional and trans-formative,Ā Ā the chapter on financial infidelity is one that takes all my attention. My thoughts and those from others will not leave the reader the same.Ā
Let the team do the work. We keep an eye to its release in the last quarter of this year! But, for now, pause and reflect; are you practicing financial infidelity or being practiced against you?
Much Love!
