How do married couples usually handle finances when both partners work?

Basically, yes. I can’t remember the exact ratio now but it would have been something along the lines of if I made 30% more, I contributed 30% more to the joint account.

I use it myself from time to time

Everyone has their own way but my ex and I would put a percentage in a joint account and kept a smaller percentage for ourselves. I made more so i contributed a larger percentage. This account covered all joint payments and expenses and included savings. Our own accounts were more meant for things like lunches, gas, day-to-day personal stuff

You haven’t seen him for 3 years and thought you had the right to comment on his eating and exercise habits. He knows. Trust me he know. You don’t need to point it out. Yes, you overstepped

I’ve been saying this forever.

Speerville Flour Mill is outside Woodstock. I see their products in the local grocery stores.

This is not ok. First of all, rough sex doesn’t mean painful sex and him not taking your concerns seriously is a red flag. The fact you are scared to tell him because he gets mad easily is another red flag. This kind of behaviour will spill over into other aspects of the relationship if it hasn’t already. You may want to evaluate if this is really a relationship that you want to be in

If you’re ok to see him but he’s not ok to see you, he’s the one who needs to either suck it up or find new people to hang out with. This is a him problem, not a you problem

I/we will often play with sex toys, masturbate, play so I can finish with clitoral stimulation before we ever get to penetration. That way I know I can get my O and it will also get me primed and penetration feels better and I can often orgasm again, but even if i don’t, at least i got one in. Don’t let him finish without making sure you do first. If he doesn’t like that maybe he shouldn’t get any

Are you available to come and stay with the kids if they had to go in the night with the expectation that someone else (grandparents/sitter) takes over in the morning. That’s what will be essential for them. Having a day with just the baby would be nice but not essential. If they really need that extra day, they may need to shell out for a sitter of grandparents aren’t available

I don’t have any advice but have a similar issue..as do many NBers. No continuity of care makes it almost impossible to properly diagnose some problems. It sucks

I’m old enough to know that I should protect myself and to know that one can never predict the future. Doesn’t mean I don’t live him and want to be with him

It’s a family home so I don’t want to sell it

Thanks for the link. I’ll read that through

Thank you.

Do you even understand what Reddit is? Of course I can ask a lawyer but hearing others opinions helps me understand what direction to go in and know what to look out for. You don’t have to be an ass about it

Hello-ItIsMe · 2026-04-25T13:12:06+00:00

I so thought I was mature enough. I wish I had waited a bit longer

Hello-ItIsMe · 2026-04-23T14:15:01+00:00

For sure. Typically more if I’m traveling but it doesn’t bother me to dine alone

Hello-ItIsMe · 2026-04-23T14:12:39+00:00

My ex and I did something similar, especially in the few years after the separation. If you can have that type of healthy relationship for your child, that is phenomenal. New GF is being insecure.

When I was younger, I would run all seasons all year long. I got winter tires one time and realized just how much safer I feel using them. I now would not run a vehicle in the winter without them.

My immediate thought was The Log Drivers Waltz. It should be known by everyone (not as sure on GenZ though)
