'My husband won't let me turn the heating on but finds the money for nights out'

A woman has been left fuming with her husband as he will often spend a lot on nights out and fancy lunches with work colleagues but refuses to put the heating on at home. The wife took to the 'Am I Being Unreasonable?' forum on Mumsnet to explain that the cost of living crisis has left her and her husband thinking a bit more about their energy bills as they are careful not to spend too much.

However, as the woman explained, sometimes her husband's priorities do not seem to match. She said: "Cost of living crisis, soaring energy bills... you know the score. My husband is very much of the 'put on another jumper' type (ps I’m already wearing one, thick socks and slippers in the house, on occasion a jacket), all on the pretence that we need to be cautious with bills etc."
