Hiding purchases, spending out of control, and lying about money could indicate a problem in your relationship.


When we think of cheating, we often think of things like a sexual affair or emotional infidelity. However, a new problem has hit couples today, and it has to do with money.

Money is, after all, an extension of ourselves. It doesn't define us, but we do work hard for a certain way of life. How we spend money, how we give money, and how we save it all help say a bit about our character.

When you're part of a couple, money often gets merged. You share the wealth, and debt, of your partner. You plan for the future with your partner. However, when your partner says one thing about money and does another, it could be a problem in your relationship.

Financial infidelity can be just as hurtful as a sexual affair. Here is some more information about what defines financial infidelity.
