Her not wanting to be left on her ass in case something happens with him isn’t a dumb reason. What she supposed to do start from scratch?I think it's OK to have a separate account but the reason she gave would have me leave her. Because she is not 100 on the relationship and preparing for the what ifs.
We also have to understand the financial situation which leaves open questions.
Saving money is cool. The reasoning is foul.
Also adding.......She's a problem. She wants to be able to spend his whole saving hers....
He needs to leave.
I never play with my money
She should tell him from the get go..She would like her own "spending" money.Her not wanting to be left on her ass in case something happens with him isn’t a dumb reason. What she supposed to do start from scratch?
But if she has a job....Why would she be left on her ass?No relationship is guaranteed. I think it’s smart of her to have a back up plan. I bet a lot of women wish they did. Maybe she should’ve communicated it with him and it might not have been an issue. I think he should start putting money in his account and if they can afford the 40% taken away. Go for it.
We agree that she should’ve said something. We also agree that she shouldn’t be mad he wants to take 40% out to catch up on what she’s been doing.She should tell him from the get go..She would like her own "spending" money.
If she worried about being on her ass...She needs to save and not spend his money or be mad and he's saving too.
I love this
But does it not happen?But if she has a job....Why would she be left on her ass?
That's assuming he has it all..Which is another convo.
Cuz why let a man control all the finances but still be worried he will leave you with nothing?
That's crazy from the start
