writes:I've become concerned about my husband lately and his spending habits.He's spent, I estimate, about $50,000 on clothing that he never wears. He keeps the clothing he does wear in our bedroom, all his shopping in another room of our house.In our wardrobe he's got hundreds of unworn suits, and loads and loads of undershirts that he's never even worn, plus about 200 packs of briefs that are unopened.I've tried to find out why he spends so much, but he insists it gives him a feel-good vibe doing all that spending. I asked him why he bought so many suits and undershirts and he said he "loves the look of them".I asked him why there were so many packets of unopened briefs, and he said "it's good buying them."Astonishingly we haven't got into debt through all this spending - somehow my husband manages to afford this. He keeps spending and spending yet still manages to not get into debt - which is weird.I've tried everything to stop him spending but he somehow manages to find ways round it.I'm worried about the effect it'll have on his mental health though.Does anyone know how I can deal with this effectively?Michelle
