She should pay for her own car.

Also even guys/girls/friends often don't take money for fixing things, I always give something for change. I don't personally like people who use other people for free. I don't want to be used and I dont want to use others. Also I cannot stand people who want discounts from their family, friends etc. because everyone has a family to feed. I could slap one rich dude another day when he begged discount from another person, he has no problems with money so why not value a good job but put it down for asking discount? When ever using someones time, appreciate it and don't stomp it. Bad behaviour and pure using.

Whenever we can, we actually pay some more just because good and trusted workers and good job. I think I learnt it when I was doing things and people said, take this extra, we can trust you, you are doing good job and we want you come again. I put the good forward

She feels that now since she has a husband it's his job to pay for all car repairs, hers and his.

He should buy her a new car to make up for being an idiot.


Married but fight who pays for what? Seriously?

At least from the many women I know (most of my friends are women), she is NOT typical.

I did once went out with a woman who during dinner said "my wine glass is empty..." in a irritated tone. I honestly didn't notice and I proceeded to pour. Lets just say that that was the last time I saw her. But again, I wouldn't say that the behavior has anything to do with feminism but more to do with personal issues.

They're married. It is one pool of money.

And why is this guy so dumb to marry someone that has this mindset?

Not that this is real, its an incognito gender bashing thread.

And had you stayed with her she would have gotten accustomed to saying something once and watching you jump to attention. No, what's wrong with her grabbing the bottle and filling her own glass? Nothing, however she expected you to do it as a man. Say you continued to date her and eventually moved in together. All she would have to do was say "I'm a little thirsty" or "my glass is almost empty" and instead of getting up and going to the kitchen herself she expected you to wait on her hand and foot.

Well... that's the point... We would have never made it to even the second date. (I think she considered me too low class for her. I don't give a dam)

Nothing to do with feminism. Just spoiled attitude. I feel for the guy but he let the relationship get to the point of marriage. Now he has to deal with her attitude.

Sorry, but...isn't it THEIR car?

My ex did all the maintenance on our family cars and home. I would be useless at that stuff. I handled other things that I was good at. Expenses related to cars and so forth came out of our joint account.

Your friends don't really understand the concept of a marital partnership, do they?
