What’s something you’re too nervous to ask your partner to do for you, mainly because you know they’ll say no?

1. Stop buying animal products.
   We’re good at reducing. But I doubt I’ll get him to really check ingredients and be more careful about it.

2. I don’t think there’s anything I would reasonably ask that he’d say no to.

3. I wish he would actively take the steps to pivot into domestic work instead of foreign. The money is ridiculous so it affords us a fairly lavish lifestyle, but being gone for weeks and weeks upward to months sucks. And we have a 5 year old who is asking questions.

   I don’t think he would say no, I think he would hate it which is why I’m hesitant to open the door to that conversation because I know he’s do it in a heartbeat if I asked.

4. I really want to have a foursome with me, him, a friend of his, and the friend’s wife, but I know he isn’t really into it, so I’ve never brought it up to him.

5. Being less « fancy » in his spending.
   We grew up together poor, and thanks to his job, we live a really great life, BUT!
   We are two different type of wealthy people: I am the one who still lives like a poor. I always use plan Z technique, shop in second hand and argue to get lower price, ask myself if i really need that thing or Im just being a dumb consumer, I always watch my back, in case we really really need money. While him, he’s definitely living his life like a new rich. Spending money on expansive hobbies, buying stuff he doesn’t need here and there, got expansive tattoos and he have the audacity to say « Chill, please yourself too », but when he’s struggling with money sometimes, he’s crying for my helps.
   So yeah, if he was more smart about spending money and listening to my tips, he will think twice before throwing cash for nothing
