What does privacy mean in a marriage?

I was having a fight with my husband about two weeks ago.

My husband: Why do you want to meddle in my personal matters; keep your mouth shut.

Me: As long as we are married, you should know that my actions and inactions affect both of us.

Husband:- Do I meddle in your business or ask you any questions?

Me:- Because you no longer care about me, I’m upset and irritated right now. I’ve noticed over the past few months that you don’t seem to care about me. Your primary concerns are with your coworkers and office. You also don’t get involved since you are aware that I always let you know where I’m going. Even when I tell you everything, you don’t follow suit. You try to keep information from me, which is why you object if I cross-examine you. Nothing about me is hidden. I’m an honest person.

Husband: We ought to trust one another.

Me: Because I don’t go to the office or socialise much, and because I don’t hide anything, it’s simple for you to believe me. But how can I trust you in anything if you don’t tell me the complete truth and hide things? I may have confidence in you in financial and other areas, but not in all of them, and you are aware of my reasons for doing so. I shall have complete faith in you even if you retire and stay at home.

Husband: I want to retire, but my boss can’t find someone to take my job. I will train him and leave as soon as he hires one worker. Anyway, now that I only visit the workplace once per week, what’s the issue?

Me: If you don’t keep anything from me, there won’t be any issues.

My opinion is that if you want privacy, avoid getting married.

Marriage is a commitment to sharing and caring, not to maintaining your privacy or keeping secrets from your partner.
