"Real Housewives of Atlanta" reality stars Cynthia Bailey and Peter Thomas have been struggling to get their finances on point since they got married in January 2011... due to an over budget wedding in Atlanta.

The couple, whose marriage was going steady good, is facing those financial struggles again and had a complete marital meltdown on last Sunday's episode; the Bravo cameras was there to catch it all on tape.

Cynthia confronted her Jamaican hubby [Peter] about 'not' using their savings for his personal use, or in other words, to buy his man-cave, along with having sex multiple times per week.

Peter replied with, "we can't continue like this. Somebody needs an escape route."

Cynthia's sister Malorie added more strain to the couple's crumbling marriage when she decided to move in for two months... over extending her two week stay.

Apparently, Cynthia was more caught up with Peter trying to have sex two or three times a day and being the only breadwinner in the relationship, than having her sister in the house.

“I don’t really have time to think about sex all day,” she snapped at her husband. “I have to work to be able to afford the bed that we sleep in so we can have sex.”

She bluntly told Peter:

“You’re not the only one who’s frustrated in this relationship. I’m definitely frustrated as well. So what is the answer so that you get what you want and I get what I want?”

“Next you’ll be like, ‘Well, let me just have a little hottie on the side to take the pressure off you,’ ” she raged.

“I feel like I’m sacrificing everything to ensure we get to where we’re trying to go,” Cynthia said, also reminding Peter she moved to Atlanta to be with him.

But “everything you told me did not work out — far from it,” she sighed.

Angry Peter [and his EXPLETIVES] replied with:

“You’re out of your [EXPLETIVE] mind.”

“Why do you keep on going back there!” he shouted when Cynthia complained about how she had to earn the money.

Shortly after, Cynthia accused him of being disrespectful by cursing.

Peter then stormed out of the room and came back saying, “I can’t get my man cave and get the f*** away from this tension all the time?” Watch the clip below:
