Today, my husband had a temper tantrum because I wouldn't get him a chocolate bar at the store register. FML

Forget getting chocolate when you have your period then. That is, if you didn't buy him the chocolate.

He has to ask you for permission to get a $.75 candy? Sounds like you're a control freak. Does he have to raise his hand and ask if he could use the restroom too?

Maybe he didn't have any money on himself, and he was told by his doctor that he couldn't have any kind of sugary foods for whatever reason.

If she's looking out for his health that's one thing. . maybe. I didn't get that expression when I first read the FML. I just don't see what the big deal with getting a treat he can snack on while he's loading up the car with groceries. I just find it hard to believe that the OP, didn't purchase some type of "feel good food" for herself. Whether it's chips, soda, ice-cream etc. . . And then denies a her husband something so simple. Don't get me wrong, the tantrum is uncalled for but it shouldn't have come to that in the first place.

Exactly. She would have thrown a tantrum if he would have bought it anyways

62 I have met some women who are not only very controlling about what they eat, but what everyone else in the house eats. I think it's very believable she didn't get herself something but it's still really petty to not let him have a candy bar, especially if he made the money. I feel bad for the husband, not only can he not even buy himself something as trivial as a candy bar, but his wife acts like he has a serious problem. She seems controlling and condescending.

Or, OR... you could take the FML at face value and stop making stuff up off the top of your head just so you can feel all high and mighty by criticizing the OP. Just a thought! The FML says she didn't buy him a chocolate bar. The only reasonable interpretation is he wanted her to buy him one out of her own money. The only thing you can reasonably do is call her a cheapskate, not accuse her of being controlling or that it wasn't her money to begin with.

FML leaves us with just enough info so that we could interpret things we see fix. That what's great about the site. Don't deny me that pleasure! Saying that, I will also say many married couples do combine their money. I know plenty of guys that work their asses off and deposits their "entire paycheck" to direct deposit. The wife probably was the one holding the debt card when paying for groceries. It doesn't mean it wasn't still some of his money too. :P
