Understanding Financial Abuse
Financial behavior in a relationship can cross the line into financial abuse when one partner exerts control over the other's finances. In a long-term relationship example, a woman discussed how her partner surprised her by adding her to his bank account but later became the sole decision-maker with finances, leading to her feeling unsafe and mistrustful. This dynamic reflected a lack of transparency and trust as he frequently quit jobs and spent their money irresponsibly while she worked hard to support the family. The podcast emphasizes the importance of recognizing these patterns to identify when financial control becomes abusive rather than simply being a partnership.
