questionable transactions on my credit card statement

This holiday season was the best Smiley Wink. But now I am worried about my partner finding out some questionable transactions on my credit card statement. What should I do?

Re: questionable transactions on my credit card statement

The ship has sailed regarding the CC transactions being documented.

 

Maybe get yourself a doghouse for your temporary living space,  tell your partner what you did as a mea culpa,  and then stop making questionable transactions?

Just my opinion, but you should start being honest with your partner.

Pay cash for transactions like this in the future.

Don't avoid it. This is one of the biggest money mistakes couples make. Bring up the subject before your partner has a chance to discover it.

Doom. DW and I maintain separate credit cards. I never look at her personal CC statements. All our household expenses are paid thru a joint account. As long as we make agreed to contributions that cover all expenses - personal discretionary spending is confidential.

Re: questionable transactions on my credit card statement

There's really nothing left to do besides be honest and straightforward. Whatver it is, it is going to be better coming from you than if your partner has to figure/find it out on their own.
