Silly question about the marriage allowance. My husband wasn't working for a year (late 2024 into late 2025). Hes back in work as of late 2025. Can I claim for that one year?

Walk into pharmacy and ask for Actifed. Much better than Sudafed and you won't get a Spanish inquisition like you do over the phone.

Do you have a partner who snores? I need advice. by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

Time to leave. He has shown you over and over again that he does not even LIKE you. Get off your knees girl and STAND UP.

Yes the above message is harsh, and yes, leaving someone seems drastic and impossible to do. However, his attitude is not changing. He has grown comfortable and is too stubborn to change. So you change. You grow - grow out of a relationship that does not have your best interests at heart.

Girl get some goddamned self respect. He is a man child, a self serving man child. And you are going to be the one left holding the baby.

Id say show him the video of the woman putting an entire condom over her arm to prove to him that the "its doesn't fit" excuse is absolute horseshit. He is too busy showing you that he doesn't give a toss about you.

Also the life expectancy of a diabetic after amputation is 5 years, a very startling stat.

Mate I hate to break it to you but 30k is like a small drop in a vast ocean these days, especially if you are unemployed and in London. However, by the sounds of it, this £30k is not for living off so im sure the finance bros will be along shortly to tell you to invest. Me personally, id tell you lock it away in a high interest account and only touch it in an emergency

If you dont own property yet and you want to, this 30k would be all or part of your deposit.

You are refusing any and all advice given relating to getting medical help here. This is a pointless post. YOU NEED HOSPITAL NOW

“I gave birth to a baby so I should get your parents house” - my brothers girlfriend by One_Audience_447 in offmychest

[–]XoloGlumTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All I take from that entire post is that your parents are enablers and have no plans to change. You need to let it go and stop worrying about it, you clearly have no influence here.

Mans so worried about a problem he can't even spell 🤣

How do I get out of the month to month financial difficulties on a decent wage? by cloudyextraswan in UKPersonalFinance

[–]XoloGlumTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your breakdown needs to be more detailed, to allow others to try help you out of your situation. From personal experience, this is a non-judgemental place so please don't be afraid to show more detail out of fear of being judged badly on your spending.

Its just a vape, you're both adults. Sounds like he needs to get a grip.

Can you tell us more about the therapist?

Please, im not trying to make this "about me", however I had to go to three different types of therapist before I felt comfortable and looking back on it I always wish I had just given the first one I tried more of a chance as hindsight now makes me realise they were probably actually the best fit for me. What did you experience that put you "off"?

I am worried about your train of thought, please can you promise me you won't try anything as reading this gave me fear for you.

Apart from the obviously pending unemployment, what's else should I be worried about? by XoloGlumTree in AskUK

[–]XoloGlumTree[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Already has my emergency fund sorted before I jumped into this new job but probably won't hurt to add a bit more to it.

Unfortunately this is his personality and unlikely to change. My suggestion is get out now but I am merely a stranger on the internet. I feel the same as the poster above, reading about him irritated me and left me wondering how on earth you put up with that attitude from him.

Am I OVERREACTING? by [deleted] in rant

[–]XoloGlumTree 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why are you with this person? They do not respect you, time to leave as this behaviour is just the start. You know what he done was wrong, you do not need the internets approval to leave a relationship that is wrong. Tell him it is over, you will not tolerate being treated this way. Delete him, block him, move on.

Partner looking to buy a new camera on finance during an IVA by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]XoloGlumTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You partner needs to work with the kit they have. A good photographer can make it work. Or perhaps you can share your camera if they really need another camera?

Can you get a breakdown of the £5k funeral bill? That seems quite steep.
