The Guilt

I feel so guilty!

I had my hair done at the weekend and it was expensive! I do absolutely love it but I feel so guilty about it.

It wasn't even that I couldn't afford it really - I have paid cash for it from my wages this month and still managed to put a small amount into my savings. And, although this now means a tight month, I am due to get a bonus next month so this will help.

Anyway, I know Im rambling on about it!

My main question was whether anyone else experiences this guilty feeling when they spend?

    Yep - don't worry about it the feeling is normal and to me means you're a proper DFW'er ;)
    I struggle hugely with spending on ME and find I have a huge battle with myself before doing anything that I think of as "selfish"... Hubby keeps telling me to go and do something for me but I still struggle doing it - even when he's paying LOL
    It's almost like my brain can't deal with me enjoying myself until I'm debt free... *sigh*
