I don't think that she's giving relationship advice at all. I do this sort of thing with my husband. We often use the phrase "you can't tell me what to do" as a joke, bc we are both just that stubborn. However, I often call him while I'm out shopping (or just ask when I'm sitting at home dreaming about two new containers for my kitchen!) to see if I'm buying something bc I want it or bc we actually "need" it. It's not like I need his permission, far from it! It's just that sometimes it's nice to have someone else keep you from making a mistake. Now, one jar isn't going clutter up the whole house. But, one person making that one jar mistake every month results in 12 things in your house that 1. you don't need 2. you wasted money on. Imagine now that you are both doing making that mistake. That's 24 pieces of crap and wasted money!
