Oh, you know how it is. They say that the #1 thing couples fight about is money. A computer issue is an unexpected expense, so... once you pull out the money issue, it seems to have responsibility issues attached.
Then once you drag out the responsibility issues, then the ever-impossible balance of responsibilities issue comes out with it.
Then once you have the balance of responsibilities issue rolling around, words like "unfair" and "well last year you --" start coming up.
Then once you start in with all the inequities of the relationship, the bedrock of the relationship, how committed you are, is put under the microscope. And at that point not only is all of it questioned, you're also really, really pissed.
You're better off facing a natural disaster together than a financial crisis.
