Do you tell your better half about this?

I'm in the same boat. We've been married for 21 years, and there are just certain things I don't share. My online "vitamin" purchases is one of them. I even opened a second bank account, that I only have access to. I am careful about what I order. I'm already on a lot of vitamins, prescribed by my "vitamin" MD. So if I happen to have a package intercepted by the hubby, I'll just say, "They were cheaper this way!" and "They were having a sale!" He likes sales, and knows that my insurance co. won't  pay for certain "vitamin combinations" and dosages. Well, the extra supply....we won't discuss that. I really hope I don't ever have the occasion to go there though. I kind of like things the way they are. Me, perfectly and secretly content on my mail ordered happy pills.

 
We have been married 20 years and together before that.  My husband knows I take alot of vitamins, but he doesn't ask about cost of anything and I don't tell him.  Since we are both retired our income is very low, so I have to really watch any purchases.  I make sure that if I do make a purchase just for me, I take it out of something else.  I won't lie to him, but it isn't worth a big fight to bring it out in the open

 
I keep it on the QT as id be worried she'd ask me to make orders for her.She is prescribed medications allready in low doses and I know she'd self medicate in large amounts so better to keep things quiet justnow anyway.

Peace 

Bliss....

 
So glad this topic came about. I've often wondered the same. I can't tell my spouse. He'd go off the deep end! However, I started to feel really guilty about the habit, and found a new vendor offering Kr@tom. I've been using that for a few days without ANY of my vitamins to get off of them. I have to say that it works, just missing my sleep for the past few nights. Not terrible though. I told him about that one product and order. He was fine because it was cheap and a legal product. 

 
My husband knows about my purchases and my job. I think he gets a little jealous of the time I spend here, but he doesn't make a fuss about it. I don't go out of my way to tell him how much I spend and he probably doesn't really want to know.

Like another member stated earlier, as long as the bills are paid and he isn't footing the bill, then I am a big girl and should be able to decide for myself if it's worth the cost. 

I think if I started acting peculiar or it was evident that I took too much, then he would certainly have the right to complain about that.

 
@cassandra73 that sounds awfully drastic if you have an otherwise happy marriage. Have you tried having a discussion at a time when he's not angry to explain your feelings about the matter? 

I remember the last time my husband made a disparaging remark about my meds, we were going for a walk along the river and I said "but you do realize that if I didn't take them we would not be doing this right now?".

Tell him you are not being reckless or irresponsible; you are taking them to be more productive. And maybe also explain that the worst thing that could happen is you get a letter from customs that you just throw in the garbage bag. You have to win him over so that even if he never exactly approves, he won't be angry.

I know, tell him they make you feel very sexy towards him lol (sorry guys). If I could get my husband to believe that he would be ordering them for me!

 
Our partners worry about us, I don't want to give mine more to worry about. 

I am my prescription drugs and off this site I top them up. I have have only just joined this this and am waiting for my packages. I am going to say they are diet pills, he will worry about them enough as it is.  I'm  not overweight want to lose a few pounds. That is all true.

They don't need to know everything and anything, sometimes it's better to be quiet. 

 
"But I do love him. He's just- not easy to live with, but neither am i according to him"

I always thought the perfect marriage/relationship would be to live in 2 houses next door or even across town and just hang out once in a while, but not every day.  You take care of your house and I take care of mine :)

 
I don't talk to my wife about it & she doesn't ask. I feel a little guilty about the money, but mainly because I should be saving it for my daughter, but I justify it since she spends tons on clothes and various Amazon junk, some of which just gets thrown out. And I still manage to put a good amount aside for my daughter.

  1. P @ psychedpsych: Have good day people, and I hate texting messages lol
  2. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  3. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  4. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  5. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  8. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  9. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  10. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
  11. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Hey @CuCeltic99!
  12. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  13. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  14. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  15. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  16. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  17. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  18. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though
  19. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?
  20. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
