You need to make him understand this and hand him bills to pay so he knows it's not all on you.

Our budget is not 50/50. It's based on income. When We first got together I earned more and it was split closer 60/40. When we started new jobs the same year we did 50/50. Now we are at 30/70. Him paying more because I'm home with the kids.

I think it should be even. Total the bills and split it fairly. If it's too much then cut back where you can

@squishymommy1, that’s a very good idea. Thank you for that

@laneylou, you definitely need to sit down and make a budget. Together. List out all the bills and what they cost. Set expectations of whose going to pay what.

@squishymommy1, he makes more than I do is the thing...

@laneylou, you should both set a budget. It’s not fair if he has income to contribute and is leaving it all to you.

@squishymommy1, sorry... just venting

@squishymommy1, I have every month since March when we moved in with each other.... but you’re right. I need to sit down with him again because it’s really upsetting me. It’s okay if I’m broke but he can have over a grand in his account.

People’s relationships work differently. If it’s not working for you, you need to have a conversation about it.
