is this stealing?

[cherry123]

When a spouse takes money from the pocket or wallets of another spouse maybe the one that owns the money isn't around at that moment. Do we called this stealing?

 

[Sanjeev]

No I won't call it stealing , my wife does it most of the time, she doesn't earn she stays at home and does all the house cores.

I think that depends on the mutual understanding of the partners. But I think if you take money from the pocket or bag from your partner, better let him/her know. It's a matter of respect.

Yes, you are right the best bet is to let them know afterwards so that they don't need to ask before we tell them

For me l don't recognise that as stealing if at all they inform the owners for the money.

 

[cherry123]

Yes I don't think we should termed that stealing. All we need to is just to tell the other person that we have taken money and that's it.

It is better to respect your spouse. What if that money is so important? That will create malice.

If both partners have an understanding that what belongs one belongs to both then it's not stealing. In a situation where there are boundaries between both partners, then this can be considered as stealing.

 

[Kera]

I don't consider that stealing as long as he informs me as soon as I am around.

It is better to ask permission as a sign of respect to either wife or husband. There are sensitive spouses.

I if someone takes money from his/her spouse, I do not think that would be stealing, but I believe they should be informed.

 

[Etini Willie]

If the other partner is not around and can't be reached immediately, is there a need to wait for permission?
