Would you be mad at your spouse if...

Would You be mad at your SO if they gave money to a homeless person without your consent?

For example
You send your SO to the store to grab a few things and when they get back they tell you that they gave $10 to a homeless women.

This women does not look to have an addiction and is there almost every night. She normally doesn't ask for more than a quarter or so to make a phone call or for a bottle of water/dog food for her and her dog.but tonight she tells your SO she had been saving money for a bus ticket and a night in a motel room and is only $8 short. So your So gives her $10.

Would you be mad?

No. We can afford it. If she doesn't need the money and is a mooch on society it is her Karma not ours. We believe in paying it forward. When we have extra we share with those who don't. No sense in us hoarding for ourselves.

Hell no. I would hope someone's spouse would help me out if I were ever in that situation.

No, if she really needs it, it helped her...if not then it's only 10 dollars. We struggle in life (live check to check) but I still wouldn't be mad.

No, not unless we were super tight on money and needed the $10 for food or gas.

But if he was forking out $10 to every person who begged for money, and tossing out $50, $60, $70 a month to others, then I would be upset.

yes. It's a scam. There are plenty of fast food joints gas stations etc. that will hire almost anyone. The reason people don't is because they make more money out of sorry suckers who will listen to their sap story. She'll be there tomorrow and the next day and each night it will be something new. I never give to beggars. I might buy them a bowl of soup if I have the extra cash, but I never give them cash.

Only if we were utterly broke and needed every penny to feed our own family. Otherwise, I'd be proud and happy to be reminded why it is I love him so.

Are you upset with your SO for giving the $$? Is it because funds are tight in your home and you feel that he should have talked to you first? If funds are tight in your home and he freely gave away $10, I can see why you would be irritated. $10 isn't alot but it can mean a few gallons of milk for kids or something so I would understand that. In my position, I wouldn't be upset.

Absolutely not. I would tell him thank you. We don't have excessive money to just throw around but I will always sacrifice something to give money to someone I feel needs it more than I.

Not at all. Even if he was scammed I would be happy with him for doing it.
