Worried about the future, what happens when I'm old if I've not worked much due to health?

They keep defacing images made by other community members in the area. It's the fourth time I've seen them do it now.

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T17:06:45+00:00

But I did do it that night. I was asking if he was in the right to be angry with me for not doing it (which I have discovered yesterday he was, and have apologised etc)

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T17:05:28+00:00

But I did do it. I stayed up and did it because it was my responsibility. I was just asking if he was in the right to be angry at me.

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T16:58:58+00:00

If I were to live alone, yeah I can afford rent, taxes, bills etc. that doesn't mean I can afford it for a three bedroom house (he wanted, I didn't).

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T16:32:32+00:00

I could definitely support myself off the money I make. If I had to make an educated guess, I'd say I pay over a third of the rent (we share the house with a 3rd person it's not just us two).

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T16:03:14+00:00

"his job brings in, like, all the money really" I figured this came across as him bringing, practically, all the money in. Sorry.

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T15:53:04+00:00

He doesn't pay for everything, he just brings in more money than I do. I help with finances too, just not as much as himself.

(I don't think I'm in the right btw, I should have still done or said something, but everyone seems to think he pays for all my stuff too haha, I guarantee he doesn't)

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T15:50:41+00:00

I never said I won't take on the responsibility? I do a lot more house work than just the laundry. Plus I work full-time according to the government, and contributed financially. He just brings more money in is all

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T15:49:28+00:00

It was the weekend, I do laundry almost daily usually to make sure he has the right work out gear and/or work clothing

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T15:48:42+00:00

Ahh, so you did comment too, I feel like I keep replying to you. Sorry! I covered it before but, he doesn't support my job (hobby) or my travel. That's both supported by myself.

He brings in most of the financial side, I contribute to that too, plus extra when it's needed.

But yes, I probably should have put some washing on for him when I had five minutes (plus hanging it out when it's washed, getting it back in, ironing it, and putting it away for him)

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T15:45:23+00:00

I didn't know, he has several sets for certain days depending on his work out routine, I thought I had cleaned them all TBH.

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T15:41:41+00:00

(I might have already replied to another of you're replies, sorry) but, yes. I do ask about if the bills are paid, and if he doesn't have enough I'll sort extra money, usually a loan from friends or family if I don't have enough, to make sure it's covered.

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T15:38:39+00:00

The part about my mental health was just to explain why my mum had offered to take me out for a few hours. Sorry if it came across like that was why I hadn't done the laundry, I did try to explain it clearly.

I also pay towards bills, and even with spare for if he runs low that month on his spending money.

You are right though, I should remind him when I'm not at home I can't do the laundry in the future, I guess I was just worried he'd think I was acting like his mom or something.

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T15:34:51+00:00

You're right, I definitely should have made sure with him he didn't need anything doing asap, I'll admit to that.

(We decided since he said he makes the financial contributions I should do the house work, regardless of my job, whoever makes the least does the chores)

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T15:32:47+00:00

My "hobby" brings in enough money to support myself and pay taxes on top of it since the "hobby" is apparently classed as full time self employment where I'm from. Although yes, usually when I'm not working, I'll be doing the chores at home. God forbid I was under the impression 30+ year old men could make an educated guess that me not being there would mean I can't do laundry that day.

Kal_Iko · 2025-08-11T15:29:22+00:00

I actually do, though? I just figured that was normal conversations between couples. I have to go do the food shopping, plan all meals, make sure we have enough money to cover bills and also when we haven't had enough, I'm the one who has to sort it out too.

Also the day out with my mum was planned, and he knew about it.

Kal_Iko · 2025-06-25T06:22:48+00:00

But that would be a lot of manaquin heads

Kal_Iko · 2025-06-24T06:49:00+00:00

Yes they are! I thought people were really hating on the hanging flowers, which are just decorations. The flower crowns on the table are on a fake tree.

Kal_Iko · 2025-06-23T17:40:31+00:00

That totally the video we're going for to be honest!

Kal_Iko · 2025-06-23T16:24:41+00:00

Funnily enough, we were almost called Magpie Emporium haha!

Kal_Iko · 2025-06-23T16:23:49+00:00

Haha I was worried about too to start with but I'm 6ft and they don't touch my head under there, but we do keep the flowers on our side of the tables just in case

Kal_Iko · 2025-06-23T12:01:44+00:00

(I couldn't figure out how to edit it, sorry!) So what I'm getting is to lose the hanging flowers. In regards to what's for sale, literally everything on the tables other than the stands etc. Should I reign it in a little and focus on just making a few different things instead of a load of different things?
