When couples turn money decisions into power struggles about love

My partner and I have been together for three years and we keep having the same fight about money — not because we don't have enough, but because every financial decision becomes a power struggle about who gets to decide what matters. We both grew up poor but we've dealt with having money now in completely opposite ways and neither of us knows how to stop making everything a test of who loves whom more.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Financial choices have become the battleground where unresolved questions about autonomy, control, and care play out between partners who love each other but don't know how to share power.
