Wife Shares Story of Husband Getting Mad Over Bottled Water
A woman was scolded by her husband for buying bottled water worth ₱200, turning what should have been a relaxing trip into a tense and viral story. While fights are normal in marriage, this incident caught attention because it showed how even tiny issues can point to bigger problems between couples.
The 34-year-old woman shared that the incident happened while she, her husband, and their young son were on a short four-day, three-night vacation in Cebu. As a housewife who depends on her husband for daily expenses, she said money matters are often a sensitive topic. The trip was supposed to help them rest, enjoy time together, and reconnect as a family.
On their first night, they had dinner at a fancy hotel and ordered several dishes and drinks, including bottled water that cost ₱200 per bottle. The woman explained that they were tired and hungry, and she needed to drink water, especially since she has asthma and must stay hydrated when exhausted or eating salty food. She said buying water was about health, not carelessness.
She finished her first bottle quickly and ordered another while her husband was away from the table. When he returned, he became quiet and clearly annoyed. Later, when he saw that some water was left, he confronted her, saying she wasted money and was careless with spending. He also made sarcastic remarks about the price of the water.
The woman stayed calm and explained that if they could spend a lot on food, buying water should not be a problem. But her husband kept arguing and said she should have asked him before ordering. She felt embarrassed, hurt, and angry but didn’t walk away to avoid making things worse.
What upset her most was that the argument was no longer about water. She felt controlled and disrespected, especially since the trip was meant to be relaxing. After the incident, her husband stopped talking to her and continued teasing her about the water, which made her even more frustrated. For her, the issue showed deeper problems about control, respect, and fairness in their marriage—not just the cost of a bottle of water.
