How do you get what you really want from your spouse? Do you go gentle and meek/nice to request for something or do you forcefully/angrily, can't bother what the other feel and just get it/do it your way?
I'm a housewife and hence am dependent financially on my husband. Usually I go along with my husband's wishes and not have things, even if I like them. BUT, I got fed up of always forgoing my wants and finally, 2 to 3 weeks ago, I simply tell my husbaand that I want a laptop and gave an estimated price and told him he was to pay for it when I managed to bid for one that's of the price said( of course it is a very low pricc). He didn't give an answer ( most possibly didn't think I'll be able to get one with that price ) and I went ahead and bid for one. HA!HA! NOW I have my very own laptop. I had looked around ( and was certain i can get one ) before I told him. That's the good of internet, my husband doesn't net! I'm happy and satisfied even though the laptop is second-hand. It is in very good condition.
How do you get what you like if you are dependent on others financially?

economic independence is really independent.in most of asian county,man is in the charge of earning money,woman is in the charge of cooking and be a house wife.they have both good benefit and bad benefit,i can explain it clearly
man alway wants to control everything,but once a woman got her own economic independence,man will got unhappy,but woman must be behave in a sweet and helpless way?
i found woman especially who depends on man always likes to keep up with other woman.there's a strange thing that A really economic independence woman will not do this
it's hard to make it clear,on one hand,man wants woman to become more weaker just like a bird,on the other hand,man wants woman to become rich and that will not let himself take more,but once a woman become rich and then she is a strong woman or a superwoman

The thing you say about dependent women wanting or like to keep up with other women!!!! I don't agree, at least that's not me. I don't like to mix with other women or men and asked them about their personal happenings. I just want to be happy, be responsible, do my part well as mother or wife. But I need a break and need to unwind. Chatting here is a way because it doesn't intrude into my life as we don't see each other and yet, we can voice out as needed ( then we will not burst/erupt/explode/ or whatever you want to call it ). LOL
