A little back story… I (27F) have been with my husband (27M) for nearly a decade. For the past 3 years I've been a SAHM. I do all the cooking and cleaning and all the care for my child. Which i did all the cleaning and cooking and laundry even before I became a SAHM. I worked up until 2020 when the pandemic hit and then became a SAHM. My husband is the only one who works and pays for everything. Which he feels entitles him to make all the financial decisions and doesn't really help with our child. He's never taken him to the doctor or even gone to the emergency room with us when my son has had an emergency.

My situation in which in writing this is because today we were looking at vehicles and we both liked different ones. We were speaking to his family members about it (a married couple). And my husband makes the comment of "When you work to take care of me and pay for everything you can get whatever cad you want." Everyone got quiet and it was really embarrassing. Instant tears ran down my face and I said my goodbyes to everyone. He doesn't feel what he said was wrong. He's always saying things like this and I find it very hurtful. It makes me feel like what I do doesn't matter or hold any value. Am I over reacting? Am I being too sensitive? I just can't stop crying about it. I'm always made to feel like what I do isn't significant.

UPDATE: He's been acting like nothing happened and says that what he said was funny and it's my own insecurities as to why I felt hurt by the comment but I asked his family members if they thought it was fucked up and they agreed.

UPDATE 2: I guess I never considered my husband to be financially abusive. We have a joint account and I'm able to access the money and buy stuff within reason. Sometimes though if he feels I spend too much (especially on groceries others on things for my son) he tells me to "stop spending all his money" and I tell him that he can't just buy all that stuff himself but he gets kind of irritated when I say it. I really don't try to spend all his money though but everything is so expensive. There's also a very decent chunk of change in the bank and he owns the house we on-line in.
