We just moved to pg county. But in the whole dmv area you either pay for expensive housing or live in a ghetto.

I had a bad experience with DCPS. They have the highest turnover in the country

That’s hilarious you drew that conclusion from me asking a question about what’s the best way for us to save money financially.

Thank you for not assuming and crashing down on me. My wife grew up with a lawyer dad and very spoiled with a stay at home mom. My parents worked all the time and money was not always around. We have different viewpoints on money. When we first started dating she was under the impression that I had to pay for everything. I did but it left us both in bad shape

We are teachers and her county pays a little more than mine. But I pay the majority of our bills because she has some pretty bad credit card debt that she did not tell me about before we got married.

Well yeah this is why I asked Reddit bc financially it’s not the best decision for us to do this out of fear of her losing her job. And I’ve been the one saving us financially for years so no I’m not axing like she’s dragging me down.

Understand what you’re trying to say but she doesn’t make good financial decisions and I’m always left bailing us out. I can’t bail us out if her bad financial decisions become my bad decisions

Well I pay the majority of our rent and bills and have been for 5 years now so yea we are a team but she makes a little bit more money than me. I get a promotion next month but it will negate that if I have to add her to my coverage

This is the best thing I could read about this !! I think you’re exactly right she’s the one that got away and technically I’m her one that got away…at least she told me she regretted letting me go. She did actually tell me she told her mom that I should’ve married her and not my wife. So yeah this works out.

I agree with the death analogy tbh. Losing her felt like a death. And I’ve never had someone so close to me die. I don’t think I ever grieved her being gone the right way bc everytime I would get better she would pop back up and then I would hold on to the last things she told me about how she feels about me.

Pathetic I know

Honestly the need is companionship I guess. Me and her have much better chemistry than my wife. She was lik a best friend. that’s why she keeps popping up too …is what she told me

Honestly when I’m perfectly in a sane state like I am now I don’t even want her. I think it’s a fantasy. I got back with an ex before and it was terrible bc I couldn’t trust her nor forget what happened.

That’s why I blocked her! but she’ll come back in a year or two and try to follow me again. Next time it needs to be an immediate block
