When you feel entitled about a person, you won't treat them as well. I thought I would never loose my ex husband, because we had kids together, so I took advantage of that. I bought too much stuff on Amazon to the point that I maxed out an 8k credit card. I was able to pay it off later with a tax return, but still why did I do that? Looking back, I really didn't order anything super expensive. It was all stuff I felt we actually needed. It is very expensive to raise kids these days. But the way I went about getting things was dishonest and wrong, which is probably why my ex started to not trust me. Our entire 7 years of marriage I would order things on Amazon and when the boxes arrived, I would move them from outside into a closet to hide them from my ex. It was partly so he wouldn't stress out over the money that was spent, but it was a form of lying too. I would not have felt inclined to sneak around like that though if he would have been nicer about me spening money. Most of the things I ordered were clothes or shoes or food for our daughters. He wanted me to never buy anything ever, but that was not realistic. Money has to get spent at some point on something. I think in the end he got tired of the burden of providing for me and our girls, so he let himself go crazy and loose his mind, but that was his decision. The lesson in all that though, is don't ever feel entitled to anything. You can loose anything or anyone at any time, so be careful. God bless. :)
