I FEEL THE NEED!

[manda116]

I must admit that I get urges every now and then that I simply must indulge. What? Well, let us just say that it involves going into just about any store I see fit and buying! Yeah, yeah some people love to shop. NO! I am weirdly obsessed with it. Every now and then I will look at Jake and say, "I need to shop." It really is a stress reducer for me

I have this problem too. It is very bad....I just bought a new bag, necklace, and ring from the Mark Catalog that I really didn't need, but just felt like I had to have. It is a big stress reliever and makes my day to get something new for myself or as a gift. I figure that if I've suffered through a horrible couple of days, I deserve something of a treat. Going out to dinner is another way I do this.

I rationalize it by saying as long as I can pay the bills at the end of the month, then it is ok to splurge a little. Life is short and you should get some enjoyment out of that money you slave so hard to get every day working. Otherwise why bother? My hubby kinda gets my point, but he sounds a lot like your man. he still cringes whenever I pick up something.

hey, at least it's not something like drugs, right? could be worse!
