| 0:00.0 | Hey Waffle Gang, I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more |
| 0:07.3 | Reddit stories and if you do love a Reddit story, why not consider in that like, subscribe, |
| 0:12.6 | maybe that notification bell too. Let's crack on with today's first story. Much love guys. |
| 0:19.7 | Now today's first story comes from New Cartographer 5 5381 from the Am I the Arsul Here |
| 0:24.6 | subreddit. |
| 0:25.6 | And it says, am I the arseall here? |
| 0:28.2 | For giving my husband an ultimatum. |
| 0:31.7 | My husband and I, male 28, female 30, met at university and had been married for four years. Over the past two years, |
| 0:39.8 | my husband has been sending monthly, sometimes even weekly, sums of money to his younger sister |

| 1:23.4 | I gave my husband an ultimatum that he either stopped giving money to his sister or |
| 1:27.9 | would have to seriously consider our marriage. He did not react well and said that he wasn't going |
| 1:33.5 | to be selfish when we had so much money to spare. I told him this wasn't about the money, |
| 1:38.5 | but about setting boundaries with his family. Unfortunately, he refused to listen and said that he wanted to help his sister achieve her dreams. |
| 1:47.9 | This is the first big fight we've had in years, but I don't think I'm in the wrong. |
