She loaned money out?! Should I be mad?

I was working through our accounts and "found" our savings cleaned out (about 7 grand)! The last time I was out of town. I questioned my wife and "found out" she loaned her dad money she knew I wouldn't have allowed. She tells me that if I hadn't "found out", I would never have been any the wiser and it wouldnt have mattered. So now Im going crazy wondering what the heck else has happened behind my back while Im away on business that I haven't "found out" about? and No, her father has not made any payments on that loan (2 months ago) that was to be for a few days only. Do I have the right to be mad and feel betrayed? Isn't deceit a form of lying? She says she didnt feel she was deceitful and its the way she was brought up, to just NOT say anything at all.

    i wouldn't trust her with my money, yes deceit is an untold lie, the only person you can take action against is your wife, i would seriously question her trust.

    Wow! You've got some serious problem here! I share a joint account with my husband and if I want to purchase something I always call him and ask if he's in agreement first. After all, it's not just my money. It's OUR money, right? Your wife did a very deceitful thing. Her telling you that if you hadn't have "found out" you wouldn't be any the wiser is like telling your boss that if he hadn't found out that you embezzled thousands of dollars from him that he wouldn't have been any the wiser. Your wife should be held accountable for this. Now that you've been "wiped" out, go and open a new account in your name only. No more joint account. Go to your father in law and tell him what your wife did. Tell him you want a payment plan and that the money is a loan from you and for him to start making payments immediately! Next, make an appointment for marriage counseling cause you're going to need it if this marriage is to survive. I wouldn't trust her at this point. Perhaps this can be settled either in marriage court or divorce court. Your decision.

    File a lawsuit against her father for half of the loan. Put the money you earn and this $3,500.00 into an account that is in YOUR name only. Do not trust her again.
