Can i have a private post please.

I’ve been with my partner for 4 years, however i was involved in a horrific car accident 5 years ago and received £140,000 compensation when our 3 year old was 6 months old. Our daughter was very poorly and was in hospital for the first year, we were lucky and didnt have the additional stress from bills, travelling, fuel, being off work ect due to my money.
However, ever since this ive paid every single bill, mortgage, food shop, car bills (one being £3,500) and im starting to feel drained. Ive asked so many times for him to contribute (over a year now) the answer always being ill give you money this week and he never does. My problem is, he is amazing. Brilliant, loving partner and is the best dad ever, gets up now through the night, always cleans up (both very house proud) and over all is perfect. But the strain of paying for everything is now tpo much and i feel we are in such a habit of him not contributing that it will never change. He has a job, i have a job but my wage doesnt cover everything & im using on average £650 savings a month.

Please dont think im a materialistic person, im not. But i know that it will always be me paying for everything myself now and i dont think this will ever change.

My question is do i carry on like this and let me child grow up to think this is ok or leave now whilst my child is young and hopefully wont hurt her as much. I am devestated to think the only reason ever we would break up is because of money as money has never bothered me. But there comes a time we i have to say enough is enough. He doesnt even put £20 on the electric a month but i pay for everything including the fuel for his car that i bought and after he broke it, fixed.

Im really at a lost end, please someone help me. I adore this man, he is everything and i would never find anyone like him. But im drained, i went through hell after my accident and im now watching my childs inheritance get spent on everything our wages, together should cover.

I feel so petty to fight over money, but atleast 10 times he has promised that next week will be the week he will start to contribute and that week has never came 😞

What do i do 😞

Private post please.
