Relationships & Family > Couple Communication Should a husband tell his wife about his romantic past?: 2 of 17
I don't believe that either spouse should tell the other about their romantic pasts, unless both partners are completely at ease with their relationship, and unless the lines of communication are completely open.

Personal Finance > Smart Spending How to cope with a spouse who spends money like water: 4 of 29
Coping with a spouse who spends money like water is difficult at best, and absolutely impossible at worst. It all comes down to whether or not you and your spouse can come to a workable agreement or solution to the problem. My husband is a self-admitted "free-spender".
