Woman Seeks Advice After Husband Makes Shocking Demand

A woman named Bethany has turned to the online community for

advice after finding herself in a situation that is impacting her relationship with her spouse.

Bethany explained that after her father’s passing, she sold his

apartment and some of his belongings and was left with enough money to purchase a home for herself and her family.

However, her husband insisted that he had the right to co-own

the place, despite the fact she had paid for it with her inherited money.

When she said no, he asked for past rent payments or hinted at ending their marriage.

As a stay-at-home mom, Bethany sought advice, and the people in the comment section were quick to provide some.

Many people recommended she think about the worth of her unpaid

work and get legal help to understand property laws.

One person told Bethany that she should calculate how much it would

cost to hire a daily housekeeper, cook, and nanny, and then add

it up and compare it to what her husband asks her to “pay back” to him.

Another person suggested that if a stay-at-home person was in fact

paid for the job they are doing around the house and raising the

children, if there are any, that amount would accumulate to over $178,000 a year.

Someone wrote that they way he asked to be listed as a co-owner

of the house she had purchased speaks a lot about the type of

person he is, because no spouse should ever use threats.
