    I added Maritess to my bank a/c and taught her how to budget, but having said that it was always difficult to get her to spend, she really enjoys buying clothes from charity shops, but I always make sure she gets her shoes from Clarks. The difficult thing for her is friends, she has only met one person that she considers a friend and she is a Filipina, with reference to anyone else there are a couple of local ladies that she talks to at her work. I really wish my brothers and sister would accept us then Maritess would have some family to support her if ever she needed support, Filipina's are rare in the area we live and that's why I would like her to use the Forum instead of the other well known social website, hopefully she will in the not too distant future!

    I would not be telling stories 'out-of-school' if I revealed that my wife has shoes and handbags that still have the price tag and original wrapping.

    It's her money which she works darned hard for...so I guess she deserves to enjoy the shopping and purchase hunting ....
