Access of Spouse

[JSlo]

Call me naive, but I think Ken is too trusting and giving as far as giving his wife access to his PL account. It appears to me there is an issue of trust and who is running the show. There is only room for one captain of any ship, and I've never seen a happy marriage when the man abdicates this responsibility. I have also not seen happiness when the man insists on absolute control either, however, the balance that is required for a successful relationship seems to be missing. Nevertheless, my prayers go out to Ken in his situation and I hope that things work out for him and his girl. My question, should husbands give up their very privacy to this extent?

To each their own, but I think ken is in for a very long and hard road ahead. His wife sounds like she is running the house, and ken is along for the ride. Everybody is different, and each marriage is different, but ken, and I mean no disrespect, but it sounds like you married a girl from the USA. Maybe she will come around in time, I hope so, but I would plan for the worst, just in case. To answer the question above, no, but when you and your wife have posted so much detail about their marriage on a board like this, everybody will want all the details, or they will think you’re not real. Remember MICK, or what ever his name was with the hippygirl from Mexico.

It was unfortunate to see dirty laundry aired in this forum. My thoughts are still with you and yours Ken and I wish you the best. I would have a contingency plan in place, just in case.
