It depends what's meant by mean.
Mean spirited, or mean in terms of money?

I can fluctuate on both, like most people, I suppose.

I fluctuate,, from being over generous, to then a mean streak comes in..

No idea what I am and really don't care what anyone thinks of me. They take as they find. Mean, generous don't know. I help/donate when/where I can.

Yes we are much the same as Teetime My husband spends quite a bit of his time helping others.

DH and I agree on what we are going to donate give as presents etc etc. Allocation of time is something we both overdo.

based on our family background and life experiences we all have different levels of what we think is mean or over generous ?

I don't think people change so on marriage or start of a partnership some compromise has to be worked out.

I would love to hear how you deal with situations this dilemma can throws up.
