Wife and I want a house. Having some issues on who contributes

just want your honest opinion on this.

My wife and I were talking about a house and going over the application for a loan. The application asks for all your income and Assets. My wife has a trust fund which is considered an asset so I told her we would have to include that. Then for some reason she got kinda animated/weird about it. then she said “if I pay for the down payment with the trust I will have nothing left”. For some reason she thought I was going to ask her to pay the down payment with trust. She seemed upset about it.

So basically I don’t think she is all for helping me out with the trust. Now that I know you can do that.

Is it wrong for me to be a little upset?

There's one thing you're missing that might clear all this up. Good communication. Give that a try and your feelings might chance once she understands where you're actually coming from.

@JS1992 Open it up. Spill the beans. Communication is the key to a happy marriage.
