Please could you post if possible. Literally at my wits end with OH. I’m currently on maternity leave and half of that money goes to him to pay the mortgage (not in my name but I live in the house too) the rest goes on bills and food. This month I literally have £20 left, he earns over £2000 a month and after paying all bills he’s left with £1500. Okay so he’s a collector, collects certain things and can pay an awful lot of money for each one. This weekend he’s gone to a wedding without me because I couldn’t afford to go?! Now I haven’t been out in over 18 months, that includes date nights, out with friends, literally nothing. Bare in mind for Father’s Day I used birthday money I received off family to pay for him and his daughter to have a bonding day as she’s jealous of the baby. Am I wrong in being upset because he’s out enjoying himself again and I’ve had to spend another day in because I haven’t got a single penny to spare 😞

  • Sorry I don’t mean to be harsh but how have you let this get to this stage??

  • If you live together, and have a child I believe money should be 50/50 regardless of who earns what! My partner works full time and earns £1300 a month, I earn £220. Our money is joint and he puts it into my account so I can pay bills and do shopping etc. I’ll be on maternity from August as due baby number 2 but even then our money is joint! X

  • He sounds like a proper selfish person, I’m sorry but gone to a wedding without you cos you couldn’t afford it! I’d go absolutely nuts if my boyfriend did that to me!! Absolutely out of order and if i was you I’d give him a piece of my mind! X

  • If he earns more than you, mayby he should pay a bit more, once your off maternity and earning more than you’ll go back to pay half and half, but not when he’s earning a lot more than you xx
