New I don't even think in those terms
First, she doesn't work outside the home. So any money she spends comes from me anyway. As Ben said, there's no difference between using the ATM and taking it from my wallet. Since I nearly always use the debit card when I have a choice, the only time I need cash is for the few places that don't take plastic. And at those places I'm rarely buying something for more than $20.

If she had "her own" money, and was taking "mine" because she ran out, that might be what you're talking about. But I don't think so. It's like saying that I'm stealing from her because I ate the last piece of cake without asking.

New Even moreso here
I work, she works. Whats mine is hers and vice versa. Normal procedure is to ask. The wallet rifling or me going into the pocketbook would not be an issue over the money, it would be an issue of courtesy and respect of the other persons "space".

What I'm saying, I go into her pocketbook to get money on occassion. But I >ask< before I do, generally.

New Re: asking first
Odds are the ice cream truck came by while she was out front with the kids and didn't have her purse handy. The wallet[1] was on the shelf by the front door, where I left it while I was doing yard work.



[1] It hasn't been "my wallet" for about five years, it's "the wallet". And I'm okay with that.
