He Said, ‘My Money, My Rules’—So I Took Back What Was MineJohn

John and I had been married for two years, and throughout most of that time, I was the one holding everything together. I paid the rent, handled the bills, and covered all our groceries while he

spent his days chasing dreams and lottery numbers. I even supported his hobby by chipping in for his tickets every week. Then, one day, he hit the jackpot $50,000. Naturally, I thought we’d both

enjoy the win, considering I helped make it possible. But when I asked for just a small portion to enroll in the acting classes

I had always dreamed of, he laughed and coldly said, “My win, my money.”

His response hit me like a punch to the gut. I reminded him how I had supported us from the beginning, sacrificing things I wanted so that we could stay afloat. I hoped he would recognize the

effort and understand I wasn’t asking for much. Instead, he dismissed my dreams as “whims” and said he didn’t owe me anything. That was the moment I truly saw how little he appreciated me

and I knew I had to do something to remind him what partnership really means.

So, when John left town to visit his brother for a few days, I took action. I packed up every single item in our home that I had paid for and it turned out that was nearly everything. The sofa, the

kitchen appliances, the TV, even the curtains. When he walked back into our apartment, now nearly empty, his face drained of color. “What happened here?!” he gasped. I stood calmly and said,

“I’m just following your rules what’s mine is mine.”
