Today, my husband of 3 weeks told me he doesn't want to be married anymore because I suggested getting a joint bank account. FML

I bet you didn't 'bank' on that when you said "I Do"...

It might be time to talk to him if it's a trust issue . . . Sorry OP

Maybe he wants to make sure that he's not the only one paying anything?

I think that's something that needs to be discussed before you get married...

Ehhh that's going to be a great relationship

As someone who got a joint bank account at my wife's urging soon after we were married, I understand his concern. That was the second dumbest thing I've ever done. However, saying he doesn't want to be married anymore is excessive; he should have just said "no". Then again, if you continued to pressure him *after* he said no, then YDI.

I really can't understand why people want a joint bank account!!!!

I have a joint account with my fiancé where all of our bills and our mortgage come out of. We have our own money and a joint account. Makes sense to me

you must be inexperienced and young...you always discuss this BEFORE you get married. I'm sorry, but YDI

If he's going to threaten to divorce you every time you suggest something he doesn't like I would just go ahead and dump him. Sounds like he's a childish manipulator.

Should have found that out or realized he was that way before you got married. Sorry but YDI

my fiancee and I have our seperate accounts and a joint account together we use to pay all our bills and save up for a house. I don't think its a bad idea to have one you can both put money in when you want and to save up for things for.
